Drawing itself done by my DA friend iconboxjelly1
The coloring done by myself
This is a simple piece/color.
I also added some Wisps, because in my story they aid Ankou. His actual lore states he has two ghostly figures aiding him, but I though to play around with other myths and legends. And seeing that Ankou does show up in Celtic lore, it makes perfect sense he'd interaction other Celtic spirits. And legend does state Wisps are ghostly in appearance.

JULIETTE,(now out of high school) is a young woman of 18 going on 19. Abandoned at 6, by her Mother & Stepfather, left at her step grandmother's home/town (An 1800's American town, now turn summer tourist attraction. ) Her step granny was nothing like the those step relatives from fairy tales (but she could have been better). And dew to her town's background, Jewels quickly took a liking to Victorian history. Then from there other eras. Soon finding herself, reading romantic period novels, loving Ren-festivals, madly in love costume play, and the manners and etiquette it seems time has forgotten. By age 10 she stumbled upon myths/legends/fables from school Lectures and naturally she was sold, since they were located eras, not of her own. But unlike normal people, she wanted to know more obscure ones, after this class had ended. You know how crazy web searches can be, well it lead to the famous novels by Poe and other dark poets/story writers. At13 she was well verse in many things, and found her passions. But her favorite had become the Lore/myths of Lord Death himself, and his follow rather famous reapers. She had finally found herself in her early teens. A flustered author and artist, who tried to best to find clothing they fit her obscure taste/style. She was originally odd from the start, and it didn't give her change to make friends (not that any want to bee, honestly) And now at a teenager, her taunts/torments came on her more. They were both mentally and physically painful. Jewels learn to keep herself and to be loner(though always cried herself to sleep) she now a days will take a cup of coffee (her only love) in hand and heard off to the town's historical cemetery. To find her muses for her dabbles and sketches.
L'ANKOU, ( or Ankou). is the harbinger of death of the Breton Mythology and folklore, known in the French region of Brittany, theremnants of the former eponymous kingdom, and some other regions of Celtic legacy. He is regarded as a protector for the deceased but a bad omen for the living. He has inspired many modern-day works and stories. ( villains.wikia.com/wiki/Ankou )
But I have slightly altered some of his character for my story. Where he's always been the Ankou. And there is but one, and there always has been one, (unlike how it states each Perish gets an Ankou). And that he is one of Lord Death's right hand men. Making Ankou himself a noble (part of the reaper aristocracy) himself.
----
ONE DAY! Her world changes forever when she comes across one of his "Reaper Keys" he looses and he tracks her down to take it from her. Though it seems the Key refuses to leave her and he has to take her as well. Back to their domain/world. Where she says..."You kidnapped me!" As he frankly reply "I was doing it for your protection.." Juliette refuses that as an answer, still telling him. "You still took me by force..That is kidnapped!" Where he just by then choose not to answer the girl....AND! from there a strange romantic-horror shall take place with these two...
