Translation of panel 1: “Seems a bit less foolish now, doesn’t it?”
That’s in response to Agneris’ comments on the last page.
This all seems to have thrown Jaith for a bit of a loop, though.
Thanks for reading! See you next week!
It seems so strange now to see that face without the evil arrogant expression! 😀
Haha, you think it’s weird to see, it’s even weirder to draw at this point. 😀 He doesn’t even look like the same character!
I’m surprised he didn’t hug Jaith at this point. And Tai, for that matter. It would have made a lot of sense, IMO.
Well, he’s not generally much for shows of emotion like that, but you’re right that after everything that’s happened, he might do it out of sheer relief. 😀
I think he’s just had a really long night and hasn’t processed everything yet, haha!
Well, I just finished reading through all the pages up to this point, I rather like your story. It is a touch predictable, but for me it’s a good kind of predictable and I have been surprised a few times hehehe
I look forward to reading more! Though I wish it updated more often, alas that’s life I suppose~
Thanks so much! I’m glad you’re enjoying it!
Actually, calling it a “good kind of predictable” makes me pretty happy! I don’t really set out to set up a “new” story, just an entertaining one, and it sounds like I managed that much. 😀 I hope it continues to entertain!
Yeah, in all honesty I wish I could update it more often myself, so I can sympathize. Especially since I think the story reads better in chunks. I do try to put something in each page to make the update worth it, but that’s always debatable, haha! Well, if you stick with it, I hope you enjoy! 😀
I just read through your archives, and this is a great story! A few questions: will there be any dragons in the story? Is (darn it, what’s his name) the big dude who’s Lady Ralla’s slave a sort of panther boethiri? Cause his nose looks sort of catlike, and that one chapter cover showed him sitting next to a big cat. Also, will Nareth get a cooler body than just a wimpy human shape? He looked totally awesome as a boethiri. (he’s pretty handsome now, though)
Thanks so much! I’m really glad you’re enjoying it!
In order to answer your questions I’ll be getting into some mild SPOILERS so fair warning to anyone reading the comments, you may want to stop here.
Will there be dragons in this? I am afraid not. Dragons play a pretty prominent role in my other comic (at the “Firefly Cross” button above) and I’m trying to keep the two worlds pretty seperate. In fact, while the other comic has a variety of fantasy creatures in it, there will be no elves there, since they are so prominent here.
Is Ser-den related to a panther? Not specifically. I’ve been trying to keep the boetheri from having a direct relation to any one animal, but his design and some of his character were absolutely inspired by a panther, so I suppose it’s sort of in the middle there. 😀
Will Nareth become something other than human? Ah, here’s where we get some spoilers. The answer is yes, he will. I’ll leave exactly what I plan to do to be revealed in the comic itself, but he will be changed by the end of it. The reason I went this way with the story for now is because he has some unfinished business to take care of as a human – as himself – before we get there. I was a little sad to do this myself, though, I loved drawing Tren…but this is a comic so…well…you’ll see. 😉
Thanks so much for reading! I hope you stick with me through the end. We’ve got about 8 more chapters to go!
I love the expressions in the first panel!
Haha, thanks!
I don’t think Agneris gets surprised very often, he’s not sure how to react. 😀
