Fade to Grey

This weeks stunning avatar is by Kazuhiro Aridian of Europa. In the notecard that comes with the avatar the following is said:

In the age of the Nothing, there was borne a Something, and then the Nothing became Everything; full and fleeting with life and with things. And alongside this reality, of all things shape and form, there was created the Dreaming. Europa was created when the first life form settled into slumber, and into the realm of the Dreaming. It has remained here, changing its form over the years, the centuries, and with the interaction of other dreams, it has become what it is today.

This is the tradingpost of the Dreaming.

Thoughts swell and swirl and come into being within dreams, and it is here where creatures of the magnificent are collected after having been borne into dreams. This place does not represent all of these creatures, as there are many with no shape nor form, rather; this place collects them as would a library of books, or a collector of insects. And of course, there are many of creatures outside the collection, but our collection grows, for the dreaming never ceases, until the very last form of life has since slowed and died. The Dreaming and Europa exist as long as there are creatures in this universe of shape and form that dream.

The Dravyn is one of these creatures, collected from the minds of dreaming scientists, perhaps from different scientific fields, and combined in the fabric of the Dreaming. It appears to be a mixture of a sort of lizard, a bird, and an insect.
