Dancers at Dawn

In the waking hours,
The shy songbird scours,
The earth for new love;
Thus he looks, the dove
And spies the dancers,
New dawn light prancers,
Frolic in the fields
The new dew their meal,
In the foundling light,
'Neath trees and starlght.

I'm Returned!

After a long hiatus, I am back! Sorry again for my absence. I am happy to see everyone so productive and creative :) I'm bringing some new work and will have more. The Hellfrost Bestiary is about to be printed early December, along with the Gazetteer (Whoooohooooo!). My first EVER physically printed books. So keep an eye out at your favourate gaming stores for the Triple Ace Games' newest installments for the Savage Worlds Hellfrost Setting!

Good, I have been super busy and neglecting my DA people. Sorry, man, how are you and how is your art coming? I have lots of deviations to sort through, so if you put one up and I missed it, I sincerely apologize. I'll get to it soon.
