I did two pictures for the moon maiden, this is the second one.
The story of the moon maiden always amuses me, the fact that she ate some anti-gravity tablet and floats to the moon is somewhat...hilarious? But I guess there is the sad side to the story: she doesn't know how to float...down. No more good ol' home for her.

Fear is not going to help save you, it will only help you loose what you have become.

You cannot control the way you feel, only the way you choose to act upon those feelings.

I'll try and give you a brief summary of it/ Since I heard it when I was little, the story I am telling you might be completely altered XD.
Basically, the moon maiden, Chang-er had a valient husband. He won a tablet of immortality from heaven sages. The sages instructed him to only take half of the tablet to reach immortality. He wanted to share the tablet with Chang-er and he told her to only take half. For some reason, he had to leave before he eats the tablet. e.e Chang-er, who was anxious, took half of the pill.
Then she wondered what the effect would be if she takes the other half...and curiosity got the best of her. After took the remaining half, she begins to float. Her husband got home just as she was floating up to the moon. He could only watch helplessly and regretted he obtained the tablet at all. So in the end, Chang-er was punished with eternal solitude on the moon. (there were no rabbit for companionship XD that's japanese.) Cruel story reallly. e.e
Hope you enjoy ;D
