Taking place in
slug's world of Knorvane.
Uufik never was really 'right' in the head, poor thing. She would have been dead meat a long time ago - quite literally - but Rahur's master, ever the generous one, allowed her to select a pet for herself. Rather than one of the many stupid though fantastic beasts of their world, she instead selected another of her kind, in line for a slow and painful slaughter.
Uufik is a grateful but difficult pet to the slave Rahur. Though rarely let outside of the basement (less she be attacked by those less merciful,) she still somehow manages to get herself into so much trouble time after time. After another day of hard work, Rahur's master granted her permission to go spend time with her pet... and, as she descended the stairs, she was startled to find that Uufik had cut through the thin layer of skin protecting her eye, leaving it exposed. She would never see through that eye again.
"What have you done to yourself, Uufik?"
"You don't get it, Rahur. You're still blind, but I..." she lifted her hand up and pointed with a quivering finger to the gash in her face, milky gray eye rolled back.
"I see."

Every once in a while, I'll get bored and go back through the gallery of an artist I admire. Whenever that artist is you, I find something I missed previously. I'm beginning to suspect you're going back in time and making submissions just to mess with my head. :P
That being said, I really like this one even if I can't say why. Perhaps it's all the metaphors floating around in it.
