Werebeasts of Hel: Jalna in Nidhug's Cavern

A scene from a novel by C Dean Andersson (writing as Asa Drake).

The Bloodsong Saga is a full of bondage scenes like this. It's solid and entertaining Sword and Sorcery, full of action, magic and viking gods.

Untypically I chose perhaps the only clothed bondage scene of the entire epic, but that bridal gown doesn't last long. Here's a relevant quote from the same novel. A conversation between some of the main characters lying hogtied and naked on the floor.

“They could have bound us just as well with our clothes on,” Tyrulf complained.
“Unlike JaIna and I,” Valgerth commented, “you’ve never been a slave.”
“Stripping is often a prerequisite to binding,” Jalna added, “especially if torture is planned. Nidhug explained it to me. Being naked for torture is—”
“Merely a practical convenience?” Valgerth suggested. “That’s what he told me.”
“Aye,” Jalna nodded. “So that every part of your body—”
“I get the picture,” Tyrulf cut in.

This is an old piece where I experimented with some brush-like pens. I had wanted to give her nicer hair, but at this point in the story her hair has been roughly cropped short.

The depicted scene is taken from the original version "Werebeasts of Hel <(The Bloodsong Saga Book 3)" In the re-written omnibus version "Bloodsong - Hel x 3" this scene is different. Jalna is naked and standing on a platform raised above the ice floor. Her hair is also no longer described as short-cut.above the ice floor. Her hair is also no longer described as short-cut.
