Artist's description:

> mother of the changelings, a being of myth only known by other monsters of grogar's creation.
known as hel, she's considered a bringer of death and plague. she's the originator of disease, and while she's allusive, her drones can be seen at night within graveyards. they're often believed to be the spirits of the forgotten, and bringers of death to those who witness them. truthfully, they're just there to suck the sorrows from offerings to the dead.
while she's feared amongst those who know her, she's truthfully the nicer of the changelings. she wishes her kind could live alongside ponies, but she understands her kind will bring nothing but chaos to ponies, as the queens often influence those around them. she doesn't make her presence known as to not cause ponies to fall ill.
