‘The red mountains of Dorne at their backs’ Ser Arthur Dayne at the Tower of Joy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Ser Arthur Dayne, the Sword of the Morning, had a sad smile on his lips.
\nThe hilt of the greatsword Dawn poked up over his right shoulder.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

One passage from A Song of Ice and Fire<\/em> by George RR Martin<\/strong> that left such impression on me and hooked me to the book series.<\/p>\n

The sequence at the Tower of Joy<\/em><\/strong> is one of the most celebrated by the ASOIAF<\/strong> fandom, nonetheless, it has such an effect on me, on a deep personal level, that drawing an Arthur Dayne<\/strong> scene becomes an experience of spiritual significance.<\/p>\n

And what a better title for such an illustration than:
\nThe red mountains of Dorne at their backs<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Reference excerpt from the books: Eddard X; A Game of Thrones<\/i><\/h3>\n

They were seven, facing three.
\nIn the dream as it had been in life.<\/p>\n

Yet these were no ordinary three.<\/p>\n

They waited before the round tower, the red mountains of Dorne at their backs, their white cloaks blowing in the wind.
\nAnd these were no shadows; their faces burned clear, even now.<\/p>\n

Ser Arthur Dayne, the Sword of the Morning, had a sad smile on his lips. The hilt of the greatsword Dawn poked up over his right shoulder.<\/p>\n

Ser Oswell Whent was on one knee, sharpening his blade with a whetstone. Across his white-enameled helm, the black bat of his House spread its wings.<\/p>\n

Between them stood fierce old Ser Gerold Hightower, the White Bull, Lord Commander of the Kingsguard.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
