Art for Chrismm!

Title: Jane and Emily Roland, of Excidium
Gift for: [livejournal.com profile] chrismm
Artist: [livejournal.com profile] xenakis_
Rating: G
Fandom: Temeraire
Warnings: none
Artist's Notes: Happy Yuletart dear chrismm! I hope you will enjoy my humble gift as much as I did drawing it!
Giants hugs and kisses to my wonderful betas, who shall remain nameless until the reveal :) Thank you for the hand holding and the occasional "OMG WHY ARE YOU DRAWING ALL THE SCALES YOU CRAZY PERSON?" I really have no idea, it seemed like a good idea at the time?
A note about the art: this is Jane Roland pre-scar. I choose to believe she got it at the Nile, which is the battle she is preparing to fly to in this piece.
Summary: Capitain Jane Roland and daughter Emily, of Excidium, on the night before their departure for Egypt to join the forces of Lord Nelson at the Nile.


Note from [livejournal.com profile] xenakis_:
ETA: Dear Chrismm, this snippet grew out of my attempt to write the summary for the art. I couldn't finish it in time for the deadline, so you get it for the reveal, instead. I hope you'll enjoy this little extra present!
