Holy shit dude, it's rapidly becoming apparent that you kick ass at architectural drawing. Care to tell me some more about those tapestries and those three circular plates with the symbol-thingies?
(my technical jargon is top shelf, yes, I know)

I certainly kick ass in drawing buildings that would collapse on yer head.
Those thingies represent other nobles from the state, flags for pegasi and shields for earth ponies.

I love the perspective, everything is so in place. The architecture itself is beautiful, Celtic and Norsk influences that I truly love. The banners underlining the importance of the figure, being it a queen or earl. The guards are so badass, the way you draw armour and swords...gahhhh! Light from the stained glass, how the hell did you manage to do that in traditional art? It's beyond words, just like the shading...I would give a lot to claim such skill. And the sad soul in the middle, about to deliver the bad news. It just might be that he walks under those banners for the last time, informing his superior about the defeat...
Your music choice really fits to that medieval atmosphere, but somehow I find this one also very fitting:

I can see him walking that very long corridor, flashbacks of the lost battle tormenting his mind, wounds slowing him down as he approaches his destiny.

Perspective here is somewhat flat laid... the walls are directly in front making it look so. Honestly tried to aim a little to the gothic part there with the arcs, made armors and helmets out of fantasy but now it seems like they look in between Gondor and dark knights from darksouls... Light from the stained glass was fun to try, I basically sketched the reflection with thin lines and avoided shading that... then shaded in a midtone and pulled it out with eraser, didnt take too much skill :V...
psst, remember Westmarch plague? Guess what's the bad news for the queen.
I'd honestly use that music in some cold, stormy or even snowy climate hmmm... some expedition (which is also kinda part of the story heh)
Thanks once more for your feedback here!

Well, for me it looks awesome, I always struggle with perspective so usually I end up having things as simple as possible. Or I fail.
Arcs are truly gothic, forgot to point that out, but the ornaments and symbols remind me of those others. Having so much influances make you really good at armour design and I love it. I should play some such themed games to improve in that, but can't find time for that...
Sounds pretty simple but I would have to do it several times over and over again, and still not reach that execution. So well done.
These seem like really bad news indeed, I suppose he will be sent there again with an order to not fail or die. If he's lucky.
Never though about that track set in cold environment, but yeah it fits. In frozen lands your biggest enemy is fire, and scorched land looks so disturbing when it happens to lay between ice and snow.
Sure thing mate!

Oh my goodness this is a marvel! The best part about this has to be how you masterfully crafted lights and shadows. You also did a nice job with giving an older looking theme to it.

Thank you very much! This was one of experiments made to get my values in place... it's not exactly a marvel hehe.
oh gosh yay

Man... Good work on this one! I love the lighting here. The details on the ponies are great too!
Did you use the same paper though? The texture looks cleaner.
CHEERS!

Yea, I like the rough one for sketching but on full shading it can be piss poor..
