I am back!

As you may know, I have been working on this world since I was 12 years old. It’s the world I created for my first Ocs Nelouche and Ann’athiel to write down their story. In 2015 I drew the first version of a map and was super proud of it. Unfortunately after some time and with the pressure of school hitting in the urge to create kinda left me, but I never forgot about Delarthes. It was always in my mind, calming me nicely when I needed to be somewhere else, this year more to an ever. So here’s the new map and I hope you like it.
