The Legend Of Cortega

Published:

Description



I felt the cold of the ice and water
Come flowing through as it pulled me under
I saw my hand reaching out in the ether
And touched the branches in my cold white fever

Flow, white water, flow 
Down to me

I heard you calling in the city canyons
I should have waited by the window lantern
But I went running through the moonlit forest
Alone and searching for the cold white current

Flow, white water, flow 
Down to me
Flow, white water, flow 
Me out to sea

And coming through the mist
Into the calm and clear
In the emerald gleam
I can feel you near
The dogwoods on the banks
Glowing in the gloom
On every naked branch
A beautiful white bloom

I see you running in the tall wild grasses
Young and free along the river rapids
Your body floating in the foreign air
Your lovely hands reaching down from there

Flow, white water, flow 
Clean on through
Flow, white water, flow 
Me o'er to you 

And coming through the mist
Into the calm and clear
In the emerald gleam
I can see you near
Standing on the shore
Glowing in the gloom
And from your parted lips,

A beautiful white bloom...


ARTIST COMMENTS

Meet Cortega, my most recent character inspired off of the desired idea from the customer who ordered it. This is a long overdue piece for :iconmoorfine:, who asked for a punk-rocker horse with piercings and all of the fine toppings. I decided to make a full-designed character which I am giving moorfine the rights to use for an OC if she so wishes. Cortega has an epic back story, which is currently in the making. I will post an updated description when I finish it.  He's got a deer tail (Thanks nef!), rainbow mohawk, an aztec-style tattoo, and he wears a pendant around his neck, a relic from his past.

The shark is his spirit companion, who's name is Ricus. She isn't exactly a shark. More like a shark- anglerfish cross, hence the glowing dorsal appendage. her body is luminescent, though the lure is the brightest part. 






I hope it was everything you hoped for, Moorfine! Enjoy!


Cheers!
