The Spirit of Wind
Cecilia

She’s always around. She’s the air who can be destructive, but inside, she's soft and tender.



The Spirit of Water
Tatiana

She’s the element who can fit into any kind of shape. She has a big heart and doesn’t mind sharing it with those who need it


The Spirit of Stone
Grace

Firm and wise, she looks like the toughest element of all, but her heart can always be tamed by time


The Spirit of Smoke
Odilia

A mystery that could never be solved. She appears and disappears in a mysterious beautiful silence


The Spirit of Rain
Ephie

She blesses and curses the world with her tears. She gives life to the universe, but once she is unhappy, she could take it easily


The Spirit of Night
Nyla

She represents the darkness. She watches over the dark sky but loves to confuse the travelers by hiding the stars and the moon


The Spirit of Ice
Nova

Strong and powerful. A frozen beauty that admires as well as respects by others. She freezes the hatred and releases love to the world.


The Spirit of Flower
FloLady

Blooms and blossoms in every heart, brings colors, spring, and joy to the world. But her hidden thorns can bleed every heart


The Spirit of Fire
Ipit

She can be the enemy or the helper. Her rage can destroy everything in sight, and can only be calmed by her opposite spirit


The Spirit of Earth
Novenia

Wise and truthful, beautiful and warm. She has laid down her arms to cuddle every people no matter how painful it is


The Spirit of Cloud
Ocha

She can provide the world a calm day, but can also pour her tears without mercy. She is the hope in a very sunny earth


The Spirit of Aurora
Anita

Beautiful and untouchable but able to touch the heart of her admirers. She is a heart-warmer sight in the darkest night

BlackentheNyla

This is my original character named Nyla.
She is the spirit of the night and you can sometimes see her in a night with a full moon and the sky filled with stars.
They said if you see her in the night sky, your night will be blessed!

This illustration of Nyla is also inspired by the lyrics from the song titled "We Only Come Out At Night" by the Smashing Pumpkins, i think this song is related to Nyla :D

"We only come out at night, the days are much too bright
We only come out at night
And once again, you'll pretend to know me well, my friends
And once again, I'll pretend to know the way
Thru the empty space
Thru the secret places of the heart
We only come out at night, the days are mush too bright
We only come out at night
I walk alone, I walk alone to find the way home
I'm on my own, I'm on my own to see the ways
That I can't help the days, you will make it home o.k.
I know you can, and you can
We only come out at night, the days are much too bright
We only come out at night
And once again, you'll pretend to know that
There's an end, that there's an end to this begin
It will help you sleep at night
It will make it seem that right is always right
Alright?
We only come out at night"
