The Princeling ... young, beautiful, still full of arrogance, with his jewelry and his, uh, clothing intact. Then...
Looks like a captive now -- notice the jewelry is gone, and in three out of four images his, uh, clothes are as absent as his jewelry. Then ...
The hero realizes he has a dangerous job to do -- alone in the wilderness he performs the ritual sword kata to purify his hert and mind before undertaking the mission. Then ...
Here comes the hero -- and what a hero. The scenes actually look like he's breaking into someone's stronghold to bust someone out. Notice, there's an extra sword in the bottom of the shot in two of the images. Then 00
Here we are on today's renders. The hero and the Princeling together, and the kid has the second sword. They're chasing off the ruffians who abducted the prince, and then -- aha! Look who's sorry now! He's the picture of contrition. But who could stay mad at him for long?! Last image shown here -- the warrior is done scolding and is trying to cheer him up. "Never mind, kid, it happens to the best of us. Don't worry, we'll tell your father it wasn't your fault." (When you and I both know it was his fault!)
There's a really, really cute story goes along with this! Anybody want to write it...?
