I've been drawing a lot of Princess Aki, my Moon Goddess, but I haven't drawn much of Shokudai, my Eclipse Demon. In fact I've never shown him in his "true form" So I'm going to show you now, after years and years. (All honesty, this isn't his full true form, he is bound in a "lesser form" so to speak.)

Below is a little story about Shokudai, and this picture.

_________________________

Shokudai is the most powerful being in existence, his power rivals that of all the Gods combined. The Heavens feared him so because if he ever desired, he could destroy everything in existence. His power was terrible because it was drawn from both the sources of light and shadow.

There was only one who did not fear him, the goddess Princess Aki. She had every reason to fear him, his power was far greater than hers, he held an unsurpassed hatred for the heavens, and he cared not for anything that stood in his way.

No one is sure how she had done it, some believe that it was because her source of power also sprang from shadow and light, others thought it her unsurpassed kindness and love, and many thought it her beauty. Whatever it was, she had somehow tamed the greatest of all demons, the lord of the grate eclipse. He had bound himself in a lesser form, to bottle up his own powers.

It had been learned later, that the grate demon had fallen in love with the Princess, and that she too, had fallen for him. New fear had been brought onto the gods, if they were to consummate their love, they would bring about an abomination to all creation, one possibly far stronger than its father.

The Gods set out to destroy Shokudai, his lesser form made him more vulnerable to destruction. But in an attempt to destroy him, Princess Aki was slain instead. Enraged by her death, Shokudai began to break all the seals binding him. In a desperate attempt to stop him, the gods set their own seals to return him to his weaker form. They were only successful in stopping Shokudai from returning to his true form mid way.

Now Shokudai is held in the highest of prisons in heaven, bound with spell and chain, with only a specter of Aki to keep him company. He waits the day when his love will be reborn in the cycle of reincarnation, and reunite with her.
