This is a character in Lady Eruwaedhiel's story who is loosely based on my personality.
He is a healer/herbalist and I made a new avatar based on his new essence map. :)

The books or the music in which we thought the beauty was located will betray us if we trust to them; it was not in them, it only came through them, and what came through them was longing. These things—the beauty, the memory of our own past—are good images of what we really desire; but if they are mistaken for the thing itself they turn into dumb idols, breaking the hearts of their worshippers. For they are not the thing itself; they are only the scent of a flower we have not found, the echo of a tune we have not heard, news from a country we have never yet visited.

All the things that have deeply possessed your soul have been but hints of it—tantalising glimpses, promises never quite fulfilled, echoes that died away just as they caught your ear... We cannot tell each other about it. It is the secret signature of each soul, the incommunicable and unappeasable want . . . which we shall still desire on our deathbeds . . . ~C.S. Lewis

Wow...I got a very clear image of that character from reading that map...very well done. Just out of curiosity...who made the essence map? :)

Also, I love the new avatar...it looks great!

I made both the map and the avatar.
The character is E's, but he shares my Meyers-Briggs profile
and I've contributed some to his character development.
It's been lots of fun.
Thanks for the kind words. :D
