This is an original piece of artwork and no parts of it may be reproduce or altered in any way shape or form. (And that includes the story behind the characters)

This is the cover for a story I've been working on. The guy on the front is Killian the current king of the Tuatha Dé Danann. Over a millennia ago he was a human warrior who was lured away to Tír na nÓg by Nyamh, queen of the Daoine Sídhe. She needed a human male to act as her Champion in the Cluiche (a game that is played by the king of the Tuatha Dé Danann and the queen of the Daoine Sídhe where they both choose a human champion who will fight for them. The prize is the right to rule for another millennia. And if your champion loses the Cluiche you lose not only your kingdom but your life)

Last time Killian was the queens champion, and now he's chosen Amy a 19 year old art student to be his champion, to save his life and his kingdom.
