Divine ascension

"Il est dit qu'à la mort de leur Mère Kaleemshtraaza, tous les dragons des Terres Lacérées, depuis les humbles Dragonains aux titanesques Dragons des Ténèbres, se réunirent en un ballet funèbre pour honorer la mémoire de celle qui fut la première souveraine des cieux qu'ils continueraient à parcourir. On dit aussi que ce spectacle qui les emmena jusqu'aux limbes fut le seul moment de félicité que ressenti son compagnon endeuillé Draelgaesyr en ce triste jour..."

"It is said that just after her Mother Kaleemshtraaza demise, all the dragons from the Shredded Lands, from the humble Dwargons to the massive Dragons of Darkness, began a slow, elegant and moving funeral dance to honour the first Lady of the Skies, those skies they still will travel through despite their loos. It is also said that this dance was also the only moment her desperate compagnon smiled during this sad day..."
The Wanderer, XX, 9.

An idea that suddenly popped into my mind because of the format of my sheet of paper. I wanted to try an ascending procession of flying dragons from dark brown (earth) to the brightest blue (sky). Something beautiful, a bit sad and majestic.
