A Pirate's Timeless Tale

I have working diligently since...April?  on a project for myself.  This is a project I have been meaning to do for years and just never had the time nor energy nor the proper tools to do so until now.  The project consists of 10 homes, 4 of which are now finished.  The other 6 are either in mid-construction or waiting to be done up.  And I will be doing those up soon!

This project is from a story I wrote years ago (and have rewritten way too many times)  so it has some meaning for me and it feels great to finally put a vision to the words, even if it's not fully finished, the main parts are.

As there are TONS of screenshots, I decided to not post individual posts, but instead a consolidated post with links!  I do recommend seeing all of these in person as the screenshots do not capture the essence of it all.  They are all connected to the ship, so there's no need to keep opening up the leaderboard window ;)

I'm sure you're tired of hearing me rattle on, so here you go!  Enjoy!

The Lotus Blossom

Name: Neversee

Location: Calleon of Dreams,Qeynos

Server: Antonia Bayle

Leaderboards: Medium Homes, The Lotus Blossom

Decorator(s): Neversea and Lalayla Crimsonblade

 

One half of her hull is pure white and the other black as night.  Past the white-washed wood there is an island.  The sea here is a deep blue.  Spreading across the sea are millions and millions of pink and white lotus blossoms.  A clam, peaceful and welcoming breeze flutters over the white hull.

Past the other side, the darkened, blackened wood there is an island.  The sea here is black and foreboding.  There are no flowers decorating the sea.  There is only the raging storm and the whirlpool that engulfs all to risk coming near to it.  A furious breeze wrecks the blackened hull.  Rain drops spill over the ship, but none touch the whitened hull.

 

It is as if two worlds were broken in half and fused together to form a third.  Time stands still here.  Days, weeks, months and even years pass here while only a few hours may pass on Norrath.

You see a calm blue sea off the white-washed side of the ship, covered in millions of purple and white, pink and even blue lotus blossoms.  In the distance, there is an island.  Do you wade the waters to peace?

Off her other side, you see an eternal storm, always brewing, churning.  In the distance, there is an island.  Do you dare to brave the storm?
