well... this came out better then I expected XD
I had finished a different picture of Yori where you can see his eyes but... it just isn't working out so I went back to this older drawing and it's come together much better then I initially thought it would. I had a lot of fun on his skin and his clothes(lots of messing with patterns and layer blending).
Bit of an explanation: Yori would wear a blindfold whenever people came to tend to him, this was so he would not get to know people personally and get attached, his attendants were even instructed not to talk to him except when necessary and even then only in a whisper.
The blindfold was made by one of the village craftsmen, it's very soft and comfortable for Yori to wear.

background is a paint over of a picture from www.britannica.com/ebc/art-75131/Interior-of-a-cha-shitsu found through google
