騎士譚は城壁の中に花ひらく [Kishitan wa Jouheki no Naka ni Hanahiraku] #2

A graceful young woman in flowing blue and rose robes sits at ease, cradling a bouquet of white lilies, while behind her a richly detailed cutaway view of a medieval castle complex invites the eye to explore every tower and courtyard. An open illustrated manuscript, a pomegranate, and other carefully arranged objects rest at her feet, lending the scene a bookish, almost scholarly warmth. Volume 2 of this manga series from Overlap's Cargo Comics continues to promise an intimate, beautifully rendered tale of knights and castle life, brought to the page by Masanari Yuzuka.
