I also love folklore! Its a great piece, the way the light highlights the droplets of the water is a very nice touch. Also, is Draugen spelled correctly? All I find in my search is Draugr, the again walker.

So it appears that Draugr is Old Norse and Draug is Norwegian.

Draug is an indefinite suffix (eng: a Draug). Scandinavian languages have a suffix definite article, which you get by attaching -en or -et to the end of the word, so the definite suffix for Draug would be Draugen (eng: the Draug).

Thanks for the review! And yeah, folklore is the coolest shit.

wow i like the the smile she's got with the hand looming at the back!.....only reason i didn't give a full five is cuz i feel it could be darker.....pretty awesome nonetheless!

I intended it to be darker so that you wouldn't notice the smile right away, but I'm glad you still like the smile. It leaves more questions for the viewer I guess.

Thanks for the review!

Behind you!

Really like the darkness applied here. Mostly the shadows.
