We haven’t been in the habit of sharing fanart on this blog previously, because we didn’t want to confuse it with official in-universe content, but now that the entire universe is complete….well, it’s time to show off how talented our listeners are!!!!

[ID: a digital drawing of Mark Bryant, a 25 year old East Asian man with pale skin and chin-length black hair, and Oliver Ritz, a 33 year old white man with pale skin, short black hair, and glasses, in a large wooden box-like carriage almost completely filled with large sacks and wooden crates. Mark is on the left, his back to the viewer as he leans against a box, and is wearing a red tunic and grey tights, facing Oliver. Oliver is lying on his side, his hands behind his back uncomfortably, wearing a grey button-down tunic and brown boots, and one of the lenses of his glasses is cracked, his eye bloodied beneath it. He looks up at Mark. Filtering through the spaces between the carriage’s slats is light from the moon, and a distant starry sky. End ID]
[ID: a digital drawing of Mark Bryant, a 25-year old East Asian man with pale skin and chin-length black hair wearing a crown and red collared, belted tunic, with his back against Oliver Ritz, a 33-year old white man with pale skin, short black hair, glasses, and wearing a grey collared tunic with a leather belt. The background is a hazy grey-toned forest scene with a red and grey stone castle in the top left and birds flying from the top right to bottom left. The background is bordered in white, with Mark and Oliver’s bodies above the border. End ID]
(Summary IDs below, longer and more detailed IDs under the cut)

He is wearing mid-1300s clothing in both drawings, and his brown stockings and shoes do not change. The left one, labeled “Prince Mark,” shows mark in a crown and red tunic and cape. The right one, labeled “Forest Mark,” shows him in a longer light pink tunic and a desaturated green cloak. The background is a flat grey. End ID]
[Third ID: a digitial, colored landscape of forested hills, a European castle in the background. It is foggy, and birds fly in the distance. End ID]
[First ID: a digital, colored drawing depicting Caleb Michaels giving Alice Michaels a piggy-back ride as he walks through a forest. Alice is a ten-year-old, brown-skinned girl with brown eyes and dark brown hair that’s pulled back into a loose milk-maid braid. She’s wearing mid-1300s clothing: a white shift, dark green long-stockings underneath the shorts, a dark green hooded cloak, and brown shoes. She’s looking at Caleb with her mouth open mid-sentence. Caleb is a fourteen-year-old, brown-skinned boy with green eyes. He’s wearing mid-1300s clothing: a dark blue cap, a green tunic with yellow accents over a white shirt, with a brown belt around his middle; and brown stockings with leather soles. He’s looking at Alice, with a slight frown. end ID]
[Second ID: Digital drawing of Mark Bryant in two outfits. In both images, he is a 25-year-old East Asian man with pale skin, dark brown eyes, and chin-length black hair, with a neutral expression. He is wearing mid-1300s clothing in both drawings. On the left, he has writing next to him that says “Prince Mark.” He has a golden crown with red jewels embedded in it. He has a golden collar and a dark red cape that’s lined with gold. His tunic is a brighter red with a white patch on the top right. The patch has a family crest of a red and gold bird. The tunic has a gold belt with flowers embroidered on it. His stockings are grey, and he is wearing brown leather shoes. He also wears a gold signet ring with a red gem.
The right drawing of Mark has “Forest Mark” written to the left of him. He has the same neutral expression. This time he’s in more practical clothes. His tunic is a dull pink color and the collar peeks out from beneath the cape. His cape is now a dark green and the inside is white. The tunic is much longer, falling to his lower calves. The tunic has a leather belt tying it closer to his waist. The stockings are the same grey, with the same brown leather shoes. He still wears the same signet ring. End ID]
[Third ID: a digital, colored landscape drawing, depicting a castle in the middle of the woods. In the foreground are pine trees that wrap around the hill the castle sits on in the background. In the top left corner, in the middle ground is a castle of grey stone with red tops and red flags, sitting on the side of a mountain. The sky is overcast and grey and birds fly overhead. End ID]
[ID: a digital drawing depicting two separate photos on a black background. In the photo on the left is Mark Bryant. In the photo on the right is Oliver Ritz. They are both facing away from the viewer. Mark is an East Asian man in his late 20s or early 30s. He’s leaning against a railing, overlooking water, and watching fireworks. In the distance is the Boston skyline. The night sky is lit up with fireworks, giving it a green, purple, and a slightly red hue. Mark is wearing a pink suit jacket and white pants with a black belt. His short black hair is mostly concealed by a sparkly, golden hat, with the beginning of a two just peeking out. His hat is partially lit by the fireworks. Oliver is a white man with close-cropped black hair, in his late 30s or early 40s. He’s standing in front of a stone railing, resting his right arm on the railing, holding a glass of champagne in his left, and looking out over Berlin. He’s wearing a purple button down and black pants. The night sky is lit up by red, green, and orange fireworks, which are surrounded by smoke or fog. The writing above Mark’s photo, in the left-hand corner is: Boston, January 1st, 12:00 AM. Below Oliver’s photo, in the right-hand corner is: Berlin, January 1st, 12:00 AM. end ID]
