And we finish this short yet long journey with the one prompt I instantly knew I would draw as soon as I read it. SkekNa the Slave Master and the only person on whole Thra he has a genuine affection, the paternal kind, SkekEi the Chatelaine. Picked from the streets of the Skeksis capital as a preteen orphan by some servants, she was brought to the scary Slave Master who was looking for a trainee/assistant for his tortures and emprisonment. It first started with quite… hostility hil not being tender at all on that street rat and she once fear passed resenting his guts for always be so demanding and loud, but little by little a connection formed, the same as Long John Silver and Jim Hawkins little by little. They brought the best out each other, she who always needed parents and he who was used to live alone as the feared and cruel Slave Master and had grown to like that but realizing he needed tenderness too, both of them realizing they were feeling alone all along, they needes each other. With now another goal in his life other than his job, Na adopted her as his daughter officially later, hid from her they enslaved UrSkeks too (who, in the Natives AU, are Skeksis and UrRu hybrids seen as nature mistakes that deserve no right, but he knows that the fact they are half Skeksis would tick her off) for trines, made her a courtirr threatening anyone with his hook and torture device anyone lacking respect to his daughter and calling her what he used to call her, and she loving her dad and not minding the nature of his job she assisted him with after all (Skeksis superiority propaganda does that even to kids) although calling him by his name and sometimes thinking he can be extreme. Nowadays as an adult, he got her a post as the Chatelaine of the castle, she has a mate and he is a grandfather. And they are as close as ever

I thank you all for having followed that journey and having been patient enough for me to release them all at last ! Hoping I will finally break free from that block… hopefully for Drawtober too
