A freshly hatched basilisk looks around, teary-eyed, surrounded by stone chickens.
I'm using this set of prompts for the October Drawing Challenge.
Classically speaking, a basilisk is a cross between a rooster and a serpent, formed when a serpent's egg is hatched beneath a cockerel (or chicken). All while researching for this drawing, I thought about how it would be kinda messed up for the newborn basilisk to look around and turn its family to stone, not knowing how or why.
