I hate this. I got a text message at 7 am, and my phone wasn't where it should had been. So I got up and started to search it with fear that something has happened, but it took me about 10 minutes to find it; it was in my closet, in the pocket of my pants.... 8D But yeah. The text message wasn't anything important, so I went back to bed. But well, I couldn't get sleep anymore.
So I got up and started to color this.
One of my newest characters, Rurik. He belongs to *
Dahemoth's family clan, which used to live in Russia. Rurik's younger and a little spoiled brother, Foma, died when they were young. He fell in the ice and Rurik was unable to save him. Even though their parents seemed to love Foma more, Rurik didn't love his brother any less by jealousy and so he took his death onto his shoulders.
And years later, after Rurik had got a wife, Inga, it took long enough for them to have children. They tried over 20 years until their twins were born!
Rurik have had hard times, but after their children were born, he seems to be a little happier.
