unsounded

I feel the flinching shroom would make a nice pet.

14_75

Of course we don't have horses or cows in this world so Lem would call "Bulldog's Eye!" rather than "Bull's eye!"

The mines are no longer operational since the Foi-Hellick began their rebelli...

Captain Claggart is good people, you think? You may recognise his "Biscuit-bellied city toff" line. Duane recalled it last chapter when startled by the discovery of the eviscerated waterbaby, somet...

14_73

Goofy bit of trivia:

Years and years and years ago I used to RP video game nonsense with friends over AIM. Duane got his start in these chat RPs when a friend of mine needed someone to play t...

14_72

Get it together, Duane, or Claggart's going to lose his patience.

14_71

Duane may be on the cusp of an important realisation that he probably would have done well to have come to a little sooner.

14_70

Captain Claggart lives in perpetual fear of his spellwrights going off on philosophical tangents while the world closes in to kill them all. Common occurrence in the Aldish military, no doubt.

14_69

In the first half of the chapter, Duane is the dominant brother. He's the cocksure new officer with a lot to prove and a squad of boys he's trained and is very proud of. But now the ground's figura...

14_67&68

Two pages today~

When last we left Unsounded, Duane’s Company had been attacked in the night, his apprentice Jon cut down, and Duane separated from his boy-soldiers by an earth-shattering e...

Hanging out in Discord today~

I don't personally think Duane deserves Sette's friendship all that much, but he has her. She gets real cross these days if you upset him.

14_65

I just find this idea fascinating. It's not one I've seen often explored when writing about the undead. If your physical brain is gone and we're going with the idea of a soul - whether you...

14_64

Sette, stop being so meta.

14_58-63

Six pages today, find them attached. I really hate breaking up into individual updates a scene that's meant to be frenetic and chaotic. You just lose all impact!

We'll pick up on Monday back ...

14_57

I'm not comfortable calling out any of the players in this situation for acting poorly, bravely, or morally; in extremis who knows what we'd do. But sometimes, maybe, your soul shrinks awa...

14_56

Duane's having a grand ol' time.

In case you were curious, the art in this scene was particularly difficult to do. Lots of different characters at lots of different heights doing really arcan...

14_55

The number scaring Jon is Mogul’s Number; a measurement from one to one-hundred that reflects the agitation in the local khert. If it gets too high, the khert will kill casting wrights. If it rea...

14_54

Enough of this emo crud; to action!

(Duane will explain duress assaults on the next page, no worries)

14_52&53

Two pages again today!

I reeeeally enjoyed this small scene of them as kids. Papa Adelier was a very hard worker and Duane had to hustle to keep up with him. On nights like this though when d...

14_50&51

Two pages today, find the second one attached.

If you ever read the story "Interior Emanations," you might recognise a very smol Sarthos in the second panel. Alas, it is the only time we ever...

14_49

I got a lot of Big Feels when it comes to trying to connect with your family after being the first one to manage to go to college. All of Duane's affectations he developed to help him deal with a m...

14_48

Duane's little drawing was fun to do. A more realistically proportioned Magnus.

Before Duane's transfer to Lemuel's Company a month ago the brothers had spent the last four years really only ...

14_47

Duane's not all that fond of his little brother's foul mouth, but what's to be done.

Anyway, Lem should be excited about toes because Duane's observation about fingers and toes is a comment o...

14_46

I wonder what it was Jon couldn't discern. Probably nothing important. Nothing Duane had any interest in hearing, anyway.

14_45

Duane is scared, exhausted, worried about his crazy brother and about his own ability to handle any of what's suddenly happening, and you want to question him now, Jon? D:

14_44

And we're back!

Duane is wigging out, especially without any of his lads' attention immediately on him. His brother's a headcase, the sky was raining blood and vliegeng, and apparently a few ...

14_39-43

There are some fun special effects to go with this musical number if you check it out on the site<...

14_38

My second favourite Lemuel page this chapter, I think? I don't know, I'm not doing drawing the whole thing yet.

The way he snaps at Duane and Duane knows precisely what he wants brings me joy...

14_37

I like Captain Claggart, I can't help it.

Next week is some craziness. I will probably do a big dump of the rest of this scene on Wednesday, I really don't want to break it up.

14_36

There are lots of little details I've tossed around in me brainstuffs when it comes to the ridiculously older characters like our portly spear-friend here, but the most pertinent on this page are t...
