The Color of Magic

Monsters and wizards terror the city of Paris, but Marinette is simply the daughter of two bakers. Like everyone else, she is powerless to stop the fearsome beasts or the wizard called Papillion, and knows little of magic. Until one day, a stranger with green eyes offers her an umbrella.

While you don't have to be familiar with the film in order to enjoy, I have to give full disclosure that this work is inspired by Howl's Moving Castle. My intentions were to capture elements of the atmosphere and characters of the film, not to stick different faces into Howl and Sophie's roles. The storyline varies quite a bit from what you see in the film. My hope is your familiarity with the source of inspiration will enhance and in no way detract from the enjoyment of this work. 💚
