In Cumbrian dialect, 'fellin-girse' is green hellebore. It was grown on farms as a cure for numerous livestock ailments, but in folk magic it's used to call forth demons and curse enemies

“What good is the warmth of summer, without the cold of winter to give it sweetness.”

Each one was designed after a flower, and there's two pairs per sort of 'color' slot, though Green also just kind of became White oops. Rose and Hellebores were intended to be 'black', though with clear undertones of blue and red.

But while we’re on the topic of Hellebore do you have a moment for me to talk about how ADORABLE this art is of my dragon HONORED to be deigned with such a fine fatherly dragon such as him?

They really need more art but they are SO important to me!! They are a Kyukimon in a human disguise who is an ex warrior who has settled down to enjoy the joys of life- especially cooking! They are fiercely loyal and kind!

Hellebore

After years of 'not being bothered' by hellebores, I find myself increasingly taken with the dark ones, at least.
This was going to be in pen & ink but the colours of the original seduced me.☺️
