Calydor

Evening blue unicorn spotted with stars 💙. Calydor, from Son of Summer Stars by Meredith Ann Pierce, of the Firebringer Trilogy, always stuck out to me a lot, both as a character and by his description, so I really wanted to do a depiction of a unicorn with his coloration. Seriously, if you like unicorns at all, or xenofiction, and you haven't read the Firebringer Trilogy, do it, it's seriously my favorite book series ever.

Kin memories are weird. I don't have many memories of my unicorn kintype's life, mostly just impressions. Like, I have some other wild experiences, but my memories are thin on the ground. I think the kind of unicorn I am tend to come in various sky colors. Lots of blues, lots of sunsets, sunrises, greys and whites...but I'm not sure on that? It feels plausible, but also? I have no idea.

EDIT: Lawl. Just realized how similar the pose and vibe is to this one I drew in 2008!
