An illustration based on the story Tamamizu Monogatari (玉水物語), an Otogizoshi about a fox falling in love with a princess and transformed into a young girl to serve under the princess; however, in the end, the fox quietly disappeared and leaving the princess a letter in a box confessing everything.
"My sorrow love that couldn't be spoken of should now be known through this letter by you, Princess.
I shall watch over you in this brilliant and peaceful era."
I shall watch over you in this brilliant and peaceful era."
- a quote from the end of letter by the fox
I came across this romantic story on the internet and wanted to draw an illustration about the story. Below is my initial sketch that I did for Mab's Drawlloween Club 2020.
