The Tribute - Thematic Image

"Voran was the spoiled prince of the Fire Mountain Tribe, prone to borish rudeness, eccentricities and decadence, until an unspeakable act forces his father's hand and he is exiled to the subterranean Gray Lands, where every 200 years, humans are sent as Flesh Tribute -mates for the mysterious Naga race, upon whom the only other abundant source of water is depended for the endless barren wastes of the surface world.  Sentenced for three years within that vast, sunless kingdom, and the reluctant husband of Salgani, the blind high princess of the Naga, Voran must make a choice to retain his childish ways, or surrender to maturity, understanding ... and love."  

This will be the cover image for my story as I write it here on DA.
