Lake Saphira is a frigid lake in the frozen continent of Crivalis in the Aether and Radisrol. The tribes of the Crivalese--hunters and warriors whose bodies have adapted to survive in the harsh, icy wasteland--consider this to be one of the holy grounds of the continent. The temple in the middle of the lake supposedly houses Saphira, one of the three deities worshipped by the Crivalese, alongside Rubius and Emer.
When tribesmen come of age, they must undergo a pilgrimage to all the holy sites of Crivalis and pay their respects to their deities. Needless to say, tribesmen must travel to the lake and sail to the Temple of Saphira. Here, they must offer a sacrifice at her altar to receive her blessing to become a fully-fledged adult and warrior. All tribesmen receive a sapphire gem once they have proven their worth to the deity.
This landscape was me trying an arctic color palette and just playing around with values... I'm honestly a little iffy about the objects in the foreground, though. 😅
I still want to make more landscapes in Photoshop, so perhaps I'll do one more before I return to doing commissions and even a new comic. 😊
