Good morning patrons! It's a perfect day for a walk in the woods, and to post this finished fully-shaded piece for Once3333-- Thanks again for commissioning me, dude, always a pleasure~!
-------------------------------
Sylvenabandha and his pangolin apprentice often enjoy a mid-morning walk through the woods as part of their daily meditations. Today, Sylv has decided to treat his studious pupil, taking him deep into the woods to see some of the more rare flora within.
After telling him early on not to wander too far off the trail, Sylv turns to discover his apprentice marching along through the grass & brush, plucking leaves & sticks off plants and crashing through the undergrowth. Annoyed at the wanton destruction, the dryad decides to teach the pangolin a lesson, summoning vines to hoist him mid-air and pull down what little clothing he had draped over his backside.
Tightly bound for punishment, Hiran waited for the first blows; but instead, the vines merely caress his rump, pressing their intimidatingly-thick tendrils against his exposed hide almost tenderly.
"See how the forest cares for you, Hiran, even as you absent-mindedly crush its rare flora beneath your feet..." Sylv mused. "If you hope to someday channel your own magic through these vines, you must have respect for the woods they grow in! A lesson you need reminding in."
And with a flick of his finger, the powerful magic-user set the vines to work filling the woods with the howls of his hapless apprentice.
