fine print volume 1- completed!

glad I'm not the only one....xD

Aldrea

For a moment I thought that it was Lyssa from GW universe.

Anya

I've been wondering, are Charon's horns naturally gold tipped, or is she letting a crown show?

Nic J.

When I ever I read one of your comics I learn so much about source object light and how to do shadows - and I recently started to apply it to my mini-painting thank you so much for that

Mondo Gibbs

Thanks so much for this. Been a long time supporter of your work here if I had the $ but I've been neglecting on reading everything for MONTHS lol. I'm so behind on everything. Haven't had time to find a post like this for Maidens and Sunstone/Mercy. Haven't read a drop of Maidens and last I remember of Mercy/Sunstone was Ally was getting hyped for her first shot at being a dom with Allen.

Poor Meryl. Finds a strange contract ONE time, and everyone is like "Oh, no! You're the cursed one!"

Scrysis

it is. it's a sort of an epilogue chapter to volume 1. its intention is to show the second side to bauphette's character before things start getting progressively darker. it was one of those choices of what the scene needed to be. i had an idea of doing another page in which she gets progressively angrier but in the end for this one moment i decided to go and portray her as a mother. the last moment of calm for the character hence the chapter title.

Is that really the end of part 1? The “oh please no” moment? Just doesn’t feel like and ending. Not even a cliffhanger. 😕

Taigan

Love your stuff. Always brightens my day to see an update!

The Kat Kid

I love that the "part two only" was 69 pages. Gave me a good titter.

Holy goddamn shit that was an intense first volume one. Stjepan, you bastard, you don't pull any punches. I loved it.

Iñaki Iglesias

...wow...I got lost in the pages, the abrupt end in part two...talk about on the edge, lol! Nicely done, looking forward for the next chapter!

Lia Graf

Thank you Mr. Sejic for the update and really looking forward to the rest of the series among your greatest works to have a good happy romantic endings :)

Ian

This book is amazing, thank you. The art, the story, the paneling, fucking fantastic!

Terry Edwards

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I NEED MOOOOOOORE! Damn, that was so juicy! Can't wait for more! The physical copy has already been ordered, but who cares about that? I need more now!!!

Outdoing yourself with the ring transition!

of course

stjepan sejic

Great book thanks Stjepan. Any plan for a part 2?

Minor typo, part 2 page 54 panel 6. "... and I everyone has baggage"?

PixelThis

YAAASSSS 😍 Dude I become a bigger fan with every next panel you make!!!

Shaunni Vanhille

yes

stjepan sejic

merryl literally says she is one of four children of charon and alecto. it's when she starts drinking with lauren. as for the other question,no, lucifer has his own family :)

stjepan sejic

OMG is that Hecate?!

Shaunni Vanhille

I'm a little confused. So who are Meryl's parents, Charon and Alecto? Is Lucifer someone that Alecto also had children with?

Trillbina

loving every page of this, we got a sneak peak of the end to start with and now we are into the wild ride of the middle. WHOOOO!!!

philip brown

Awesome! So going to read this right now :D

Classical Salamander

I can't wait to dive into this! Much love and appreciation for all the work you put into these books for us. You'll always have my undying support!

Frank Lanza Jr

Now to get it in PRINT!

Woo hoo!

Fritz Sands

Just damn. I am owned!

Michelle Sanders

Yes Yes Yes Yes! This is everything I love, gorgeous lush art, beautiful tragic characters (with development!) And a winding tale that I have no idea where it's leading, but am absolutely drawn in for as many panels as you decide to write

Michelle Sanders

Heheh page count on part 2... *nice.*

Jenny

This is amazing!

Nym R

Wow! Amazing. Thank you for your hard work

Silke

Really intriguing stuff.

Oplight Froste

So good! I can't wait for the next volume!

Hanna

Well, now my headcanon is that Morana and the Queen retired and built a couple's retreat/resort on their forest

Sophie

Oh, come ON with that ending!!! lol. Talk about a cliffhanger. Really,though, this book is so fantastic. Congrats on the completion of volume 1.

Dee Fish

Once Again! Amazing Story! Lucifer and the Old Gods! I Look forward to seeing where you take this. I hope you do a printed book of this! Thank you again for sharing your amazing Gift with us!

Robert

omg i love it! SOOO GOOD!

Mika

This is awesome! But also, I love love that last panel. Throughout this Bauphette has been such a badass dealing with a bunch of pain in the ass cubi, but in that last panel, she's not a divine being, she is every parent who fears for the child they love.

Onyx

AHHHHH IT'S SO GOOD ❤️

Jasmine Czerwik

69 pages...nice

Oh man, that transition at the end from jubilation, through trepidation to shocked despair. Love the work you do with your facial expressions!

Ahhh I've truly enjoyed following this from the beginning! Your storytelling is captivating, and watching this all unfold is so awesome. I'm so excited for the future of it and how it all winds back to the beginning. Book is already preordered too! I can't wait to add it my Sunstone collection, as well as beside Linda's Punderworld when that arrives too!

Rinzydings

Utterly epic. Such a good conclusion to the first book. Reallg enjoyed this and can't wait to see where the story takes us from here. How much do you have planned in advanced with this (and your other works too)? Do you have events you know that will happen but don't really know how the characters will get there?

Philip Leadbitter

XD

stjepan sejic

he's not ready for just how much the fates are gonna grant his wish XD

stjepan sejic

Oh my gods this is so amazing and i love it and im gonna be aching inside waiting for volume 2

Maz Moore

Poor Matt. All he wants is an epic romance. Never give the fates such a straight line.

Chuck Marsh

lol, the last page… the “concern” TM 🤣

pichi randoms

no. it's the same time. he does have a small flashback of his own

stjepan sejic

Was the part with the Matt a flashback?

KaraSkakalac

second half only is 69 pages long. Nice. excellent update! Loved it. I can not wait to see where you take this next!

Tedra Boag

many read this on 4k screens.

stjepan sejic

of course it's not her fault. but gods are rarely fair. imagine all the human pettiness, mixed with centuries worth of unresolved emotional issues and actual power

stjepan sejic

Hot damn, will I be able to wait until lunchtime before I read this update? No. No I will not.

Roo

I have a little difficulty at reading the files 'cause they are quite heavy and slow to load. I noticed the pages are quite enormous for a 1080p screen : pages shown fullscreen-width (1920px) are only zoomed at 50%. I mean, we are no professional printers, we might not need such ultra-HQ file for reading ^^;

Yughues

In Merryl's defense it's not *her* fault that things went off the rails. She did what she was supposed to do -- find mortals with potential and offer them contracts. And apparently both of these Golden Contracts were approved from the very high top on -- you don't *get* much higher on the totem pole than the actual Fates.
