Rest in Void

Description

When I've been playing Skyrim for the first time, I've been a little bit surprised by how Karliah reminds of laying Gallus to rest. For me it always sounded like: 'It's OK, dude, I just need to bury the last pieces of a man of all my life, which I've been scrapping from a dark abandoned sepulcher where he was murdered twenty-five years ago, but for me it's nothing. I join you as soon as I can'. What was that, Skyrim? You're too bad with emotions.
That Karliah's phrase she dropped in her first conversation with the Dragonborn make me feel I want to know about this more. About how could she do that, and - as usual - I imagined that picture of their last goodbye and drew it. :)
(I don't have any idea how Karliah managed to pull the bones out of that dungeon. I suppose she needed a box or something...)

(c) Karliah belongs to Bethesda, the skeleton belongs to Gallus, the stick belongs to an unknown person that have created those amazing branch-shaped brushes, and her hands belong to me - I drew them from life, looking at my own. XD

Yes, I forgot something. The artwork was inspired by Chapter 30 of 'Indigo Nightingale' by ~Skyflower51.

I have so many feels! This drawing is just amazing! I got the feeling of mourning and sadmess. I also love how you did the shading! :)
