The skydogs were creations of a wizard living far from civilization in a town he had subjugated, who dreamed of loyal, intelligent magical creatures to defend his keep. He bound the skydogs telepathically to his servants, expecting to create a corps of loyal knights. However, the servants hated him bitterly and turned this new power against him immediately. Now they and their new partners patrol the surrounding lands, preventing the wizard's discarded experiments from wsmdering toward civilization.

Over the years I've done a lot of art that's never been shown publicly, or at all. This piece from way back in 2021 is part of an effort to get some that backlog where people can see it! If you would like to see my art when I make it and not months or years later, I'd be grateful if you'd consider supporting my Patreon!
