Keer reading Link's dog tag while she sleeps snuggled against him.

Calatonan soldiers are given alphanumeric serial numbers that they are identified with in government systems and records. It makes it a lot easier to identify wounded and/or dead in battle, for example, Keer's tag reads MZK.49o1 on one side and one would simply have to enter this sequence of numbers into a hand held computer and they would be able to access his personal information, including, but not limited to previous occupations, living records, etc. On the other side is just a quick stat listing; full name, blood type, and DOB.

Link's tag seems to be an exception to the norm, in that she only has a number, no letters, just a number; 5. Keer is curious about this, especially because Link apparently has no records in any database, neither does her ID number yield any results. According to the Calatonan government, she doesn't even exist.

Wow what a rich illustration - stuffed full of story! I feel sorry for the jellyfish if it's real though. It will never be able to swim diagonal again.

I always love the details you put into all your art, it really makes everything so... real. I love the lighting, the hand (wonderful), and the concept, especially! The notes you have about the government and everything are so interesting and the feel of this piece is just so neat! Great job.

This is such an interesting and sweet picture. The jellyfish lamp is too cool for words.
