Luna Hourglass - Luna for short.

Luna goes by female pronouns but she was born genderless.


( Click the picture to make it bigger. c: )

Luna comes from a long line of dream makers - most people just call them or know them as sandmen or sandwomen. But she's special being from the newton species. She sleeps mostly during the day and at night she travels among the starry sky from home to home to sprinkle sweet dreams into the minds of the sleeping. Being in the sky is unlikely for her species and unheard of, but it comes with the job of being a dream maker. She finds her job exhausting but it fulfills her and brings her joy. When you're born to do something, you really just can't get out of it. Without her, everyone would be restless or have awful, awful nightmares. She doesn't mind doing extra work when need, too. If she does mind, she's really too sweet to say so.

All art was done by myself.

Mesha (a Sanksrit name meaning ram or sheep)

Female

There is a tree in the middle of a jungle. A tall, ancient tree with curling branches and roots knotted as an old mage's fingers, and in its winding boughs lies the lair of Mesha the Dream Maker. Some say she is a witch, but whatever her kind, Mesha is famed with the ability to create visions the like of which no dreamer has ever dreamed.
Whether her gifts are divine or conjured from the strange clouds of colored vapor billowing nightly from her secluded hideaway is unknown to all but the Dream Maker, all that is known is that those who breathe in those sweet-smelling clouds will have restful sleep and dreams so astonishingly beautiful, words fail to express what happened in them.
When Mesha ventures to the jungle's floor to gather supplies to fill her jingling glass vials, the remnants of previous nights' dream clouds still cling to her soft dark fleece. She makes small talk with the other Newtons as she goes about collecting this flower, that berry, a seemingly normal leaf. Her voice is whisper soft but welcoming as a cool pillow at the end of a difficult day. In that instant, Mesha could be any other Newton on the island, one that frolicked with her friends and pestered researchers for figs. But something draws her back to a secluded little hideaway in the twisted branches of an ancient tree.
Some say that the Dream Maker would die if she did not make dreams, that her fleece would fall out and her body would shrivel up until her dreamless little soul escaped between the cracks, but that is unknown.
All that is known is the shy Newton who needs aromatherapy to calm her overactive imagination that manifests itself in nightmares that remain even when she wakes.

On second thought, as beautiful as this little one is, I don't think it's for me. Knowing how long it takes me to do art, anyway, I wouldn't have time to do it in the first place X3 Good luck to all who have entered, though~

[Yağmur]

Ending this in about 24 hours.

[azazel.]

Could we please have an day extension? ^^' Lyd is having a hard time uploading her art as her Internet isn't working.

[Yağmur]

Ok, you can have two more days but no more extensions after that.

It's time for this contest to end. There were so many pieces of art of this newton, they were all wondeful. Unfortunately only one can take this newton home.

And the winner is SodapopQueen!
Congrats, I loved the art you made and that short story you wrote really won me over. Take good care of Mesha.

Lorrilai was a close second, the art was lovely.
Unfortunately I am not making any runner-ups for this newton.
