Description Let me introduce Eufrasia du Tournel, Astorg's younger sister and, as it happens, Odile's sister-in-law. She is married to the unkown-to-you Garin de Grèzes and they have three children (Asia, Amalric and Dulcia). When their last child was born, she became very concerned about the child's health and did whatever she believed useful to improve Dulcia's condition.

« Eufrasia du Tournel était assise devant un grand feu, sa houppelande d’un rouge pâle largement étalée autour d’elle. Elle portait cette coiffure des femmes du Tournel, qu'Asia admirait d'autant plus qu'elle n'aurait jamais le droit de la porter, puisqu'elle était née Grèzes. C’était un enchevêtrement de tresses et de fils d’argent ornant le front d’une tiare naturelle d’où pendait une escarboucle. Les deux fines tresses, surtout, formaient une double boucle à l’arrière de la tête, un cœur aérien auréolant la chevelure abondante qui coulait dans le dos de sa mère, comme une cascade d’encre creuse son sillon dans une terre d’argile rouge. Des perles de différents émaux ornaient ses cheveux... C'était un modèle de beauté pour la petite Asia. Avec ses manches amples et ses yeux fins, elle donnait l'impression d’un majestueux papillon. Son visage, pourtant, était moins serein que d’ordinaire, et Asia remarqua que sa mère avait des cernes, malgré le port altier de son visage. »

(ETA: I don't like how dA pixelate around the lineart as if it was bad compressed jpeg but I don't know how to fix it (except offering it as full size download). Does anyone has any ideas about that?)

She's beautiful!

I see what you mean about the pixelation. What filetype did you use?

Oh! That's so strange. Are you exporting in full quality? That's the only thing I can think of otherwise. O:

Yes, I'm doing everything the same. I give dA a 4000*4000 pixels file which looks perfect when I open it on my computer. It's weird ^^
