The Mother's Eye
🕑 Added 2022-02-28 02:21:34 +0000 UTCThe Mother's Eye is a kuo-toan temple partially submerged in the waters of the Black Loch. The part of the temple above water is meant, perhaps surprisingly, to accommodate land-dwelling races.
Do land-dwelling races worship naked lobster lady? No, but they make great sacrifices. And kuo-toa do human sacrifices like Brazilians play soccer. They love it, they're great at it, it's kind of their thing. It's not their only thing, of course. But, you know, it's a big one and they work hard at it. You've gotta respect that.
The kuo-toa of the Black Loch have big plans and I'll talk more about what those are when I draw the kuo-toa stronghold, which I'm probably going to do within the month.
But first, there are two things to do. The first is to make an alternate version of this map with the temple on land. I figure that, if I'm going to draw an Aztec/Mayan style pyramid and put it underwater, I should probably make a version that isn't underwater while I'm at it. It should only take a day to get done.
After that, I'll be drawing the map chosen by last month's Cartographic Congress: a tower fortress, similar to a smaller version of Barad-Dûr (from Lord of the Rings).
Anyway, that's it for now. If you're a patron and you've got an idea for a new location for the Black Loch that you'd like to add to the upcoming vote, you've got another week to let me know. Speaking of which, the ideas people have submitted so far are really good. Like, REALLY good. I can't wait to see which one you go for.
