The WOVEN A to Z Challenge: S is for Sibylla!

I dedicate this A to Z Challenge to Tina Downey, one of the A to Z Challenge founders and one of the brightest bloggers who sadly left us last year. Harder still, she was in a secret support group that I'm part of. The best way I can honor Tina, who was excited about and never had the opportunity to read my debut, I've teamed up with Father Dragon to present short bios and character portraits from Woven. I'll write the bios and all art is created by Al Diaz. I hope you enjoy this visual tribute to our friend, Tina.

S is for Sibylla

A young conjurer before her death, Sibylla is the sister of Gleesel who actively haunts their mansion home. She is unable to move on, and it is unclear as to why. She does not make her presence known often; her manifestations are a grisly reminder of the way she was murdered years ago. If only she can tell Gleesel that their mother's lullaby is the key to their freedom...

    Good thing she was able to communicate with one person eventually.

    I'm glad that she's actively involved in the haunting and not just showing signs of a passively aggressive nature. :)

    That's a beautiful drawing! I hope she manages to communicate the secret in the end so she can move on!

    The clue is in the lullaby. Awesome.

    Hauntings are not my favourite thing to read about, but I know your book is a good one.

    Sibylla sounds interesting and yet, sad. BTW, I'm dropping in from a shout out to your blog on Rosie Amber's blog https://rosieamber.wordpress.com/.

    Ghosts are fun, fictional and otherwise.

    It's sad to be stuck, no matter who or what you are.

    What a beautiful and sad story. I feel for her, unable to move on. Once again, Al, nailed the drawing. She is lovely.

    I had forgotten her. Haven't had time for a re-read yet. Fab drawing again Al.

    At least she's haunting a mansion and not a rotting farmhouse or something boring.

    Sounds good. I've always wondered if it would be fun to lie in a haunted dwelling.
