For a year they have waited, longing, bickering, and no doubt tormenting one another in the stuffy darkness of a box on my shelf, yet they were never forgotten.
The Dark Elf empire endures. They endured the great betrayal of their weak and treacherous kin, so a year of waiting is naught but a single tiny barnacle upon a ship's bottom. Warhammer Fantasy Battles suffered its own great betrayal, but she still beats on in my heart, a pulse as cold and fierce as the winds of Naggaroth. Now, released once more into the dim light that pushes its way past the looming crags, this Black Ark Corsair Captain stands resplendent with a bound slave kneeling at her feet like an offering to her boundless ambition.

After all, empires are built on the backs of the broken, and none embrace this truth more fervently than the Druchii. If slaves are the lifeblood that fuels Naggaroth's decadence, might, and terrible majesty, then captains such as she are its beating heart, reavers of distant coasts, harvesters of flesh and takers of wealth. Soon her veteran corsairs will rally to her banner, and together they shall slip across the Sea of Chill and into the Great Ocean and beyond, hunting for a worthy horde of flesh and riches. And perhaps, before their raiding is done, this captain may yet steal another prize, my own heart.
Nicky, very nicely rendered Corsair and slave.
