Ruck's not savvy enough to get into this and use it as part of his sales pitch, but it's actually not a terrible idea for Cresce. Most of Alderode is the same religion as Cresce - Gefendur - but th...

Rats, I forgot to notch Ruck's tongue there.

So yes, Queen Sonorie sincerely thought she'd let General Bell hang himself by goading him on towards the sedition she was pretty sure (and appare...

Two pages today. Fare thee well, little dikdik, there was no way he was going to let you walk out of here.

18-175

It is fine though, you see, because Ruckmearkha has been thinking over this matter, and he has devised a possible solution. Not for you, of course, Queen Cresce, but for him, perhaps? Hear him out,...

The mildest glimpse of the same dream we saw her Majesty have so long ago. She always has her legacy, and her country's past and future, on her mind.

18-173

Just as a refresher, since it's been a few scenes, but Ruckmearkha popped the heck up out of nowhere and swiped Queen Sonorie, her handmaiden, and Toma's daughter. Their last conversation hadn't go...

Captain Toma loves his Lieutenant so much he could vomit. Does she love him back? Or is she just arming him like a bomb? Eh, a matter to be determined if they survive the next twenty minutes.

And we're back! I don't know that Duane's help was really needed, but the gesture is appreciated.

Thanks for being so patient over the last week. I know some readers kindly insist I don't ne...

Duane can hear Toma, but Toma can't hear Duane. While ghosts can hear even without fleshly ears, they lack the required equipment to produce an audible voice to the living :( Maybe Murkoph can hel...

Very, very observant readers will make an old connection here with some of First Sette's dialogue, but otherwise this looks like a giant ohcrap, and someone needs to come break these two apart. I d...

Sette just tore out a giant chunk of her memory, so forgive her if she's woozy. She's also physically all kinds of messed up. Her odds against surviving a whole boss rush aren't good D:

And L...

Yuh-oh. Watch out you don't hurt yourself there, Frummagem.

Having some problems with the server, I'll update the site when they're resolved. Thanks for your patience on Friday! The hurricane...

Rahm would not be in that bed next to his wife, torc removed and on the nightstand, if he and Iori had not reconciled in a previous chapter. So for all the horrors that Duane and Sette have caused ...

Bastion knew this was coming - he just wasn't sure when. He was certain she'd never leave her tools alive though, especially with Ruckmearkha in the picture now using them for his own purposes.

18-163

Misery loves company but your pain is never your friend. Knock called this way back when, if you'll remember.

I think Ana and Prakhuta are both wonderful examples of there just sometimes bein...

I saw a pretty even spread among readers: half knew what was going on and half were huffing the copium, haha. I had been certain someone would be really mad when Knock impossibly showed back up sta...

Welcome new patrons!

I know there was a lot of rooting for Knock to come back and just kick ass, but what everyone is learning here at the end is violence isn't really doing much against these creatures. It's maybe a l...

We'll do two pages on Friday. They're some of my all-time faves.

18-158

Sette was only lookin' out for you, pinky. Cutter looks malevolent there, doesn't he? He never liked her.

18-156&157

I tried to create the frenetic, everything-is-broken vibe of red chapter 10, while also keeping it legible, which chapter 10 often isn't. Pretty pleased though. There's the first two memories Ilgan...

These hearts are animated on the site, for extra oomph, and will continue to be, until~

Lady Ilganyag is ecstatic. All has gone according to plan, even with all the setbacks she's had to work...

Unstoppable o_o

18-153

Any guesses why the eels are interested in Knock's cleavage? C'mon, you know there's a reason more than just a boobie gag (but also a boobie gag).

18-152

I told you we're heading into a maelstrom of colour! Anadyne's agony is bleeding magenta all over the place. Save her, Knock, and Sette too, before Lady Ilganyag takes over the Silver kills them bo...

Drawing Duane on the ground on this page and the previous ones made me so sad. He feels truly dead and put to rest, and it made me reflect on what that living man's life was, what he accomplished, ...

Duane breaks character and makes an interesting choice.

Here's a question for you, readers: Duane's just given it up, but do you think Murkoph was being truthful about everything supposedly ...

18-149

I originally let Murkoph talk a lot more about Sette here. It was great for a delay tactic for Duane, but eeeh, let's save some stuff for later. Besides, he's been delayed enough. He wants to get o...

18-147&148

I went back and forth over whether or not to include these two pages with the last update, but ultimately chose against it. I like how quickly and instinctively he moves to anger at himself - which...

A big, fat, very somber update.

I said a while ago that everything you needed to figure out Lemuel's scheme was right there in his introductory chapter, and I still think that's true. From h...
