I really appreciate how the main obstacle here is not “how do we navigate the city without being defeated by the guards” but rather “how do we navigate the city without crushing and/or releasing the unblemished wrath of the primordial soul of life itself on innocent people”
lol poor Falst is gonna be so confused when he wakes up. I can imagine him getting up and be like “okay where am I and where did that evil mask lady go? Bring her here so I can slap her in the face!”
“Hey Erin! Alinua here. So we got into trouble with the law and are now on the run. Meet you outside the city? Also, we made a friend!”
This also reminds me Tess is looking for Erin, by name, if I recall correctly. SO that will be interesting
I’m guessing using “Be gay do crime” as the rollover text would’ve been too easy.
Can’t run without lightning powers, can’t/won’t fight their way out, can’t avoid detection for too long since a trio of lion Ferin, cloud elf and metal caste woman stand out like a sore thumb and can’t leave the city both undetected and without their friends. Alinua and Tess are right, whatever the risk the embassy is their best option.
Methinks Alinua’s plan is to knock out and steal that guard’s wind lacrima and send the guards and hunters false messages, causing them to move away from them so they have a clear line to the embassy.
Alinua looks like my cat in the last panel. Also this is taking a much different path than I thought it would. Unpredictable stories are the best! I can’t see how they end. It’s always so sad that I know how most films and books are gonna end by the time I reach the halfway point. So this is very much a breath of fresh air and I wish I can write something unpredictable as well
I’m a little worried about any feelings Alinua might have about Falst getting hurt with her seeing as she was the one who wanted to go outside and he got hurt defending her. Might be some guilt there
Geebi, your local idiot (and protector of common-sense fur bois)
I know she’s probably gonna send a message to the guards or Erin, but imagine if she took another route
“Oi, Zuurith! You, me, prison mountain. Evacuate everyone there first, we’re fighting for the city. Be there or be square”
Another panel, another bit closer to Tess being adopted by the floof squad. Can’t wait!
I wonder where they’re going to send a message. My immediate thought was Erin, but I’ve been wrong before. I’m just hoping we don’t have the save any more current/future party members from prison Mountain.
@vocabulary man
Kendall is not Vash.
Kendall is Vash’nt.
also he’s already slotted up for a different fight with Dainix.
they could be kept until after the Danix VS Vash’nt fight and be forced to fight Kendall then.
Alinua’s about to pull a Col. Roy Mustang here.
Alinua: “The fugitives have been spotted just south of the peak!”
Alinua, with a slightly different voice: “We just saw a metal-caste person carrying someone on a rooftop near the administration cathedral!”
Alinua, pinching her nose: “A metal-caste woman and an unconscious ferin fitting the fugitives’ descriptions have been reported to be fleeing through alleyways six blocks east of the embassy; all guards in the area are ordered to pursue and apprehend!”
Tess constantly scratching at the restraining cuff is pretty relatable. I mean locking your magic is one thing, but far more importantly this thing is itchy as chuff! lol
Tess using the bolt to scratch her itch under the cuff is one of the most accurate tiny detail thing in this comic so far that I didnt expect. I absolutely do that with really bad mosquito bites. Sometimes a stick feels more effective than just fingernails, and here Tess just used whatever was close by- in this case, the bolt they just pulled out of Falst. I’m really impressed at Red’s attention to detail here, and everywhere in this comic: its very clearly a fantasy narrative about a protagonist group out to rescue a god and defeat another one (Vash and VD), but she takes her time to let them meet, interact, and gain legitimate motivations to travel together, as well as explore their surroundings. It’s similar to the beginning of ATLA, before they realized there was a time limit within the story. I suspect that there will be a time limit enforced to give story tension at some point (or maybe not, which would be fascinating), but in the meantime, the story meanders along with it’s characters, and gives us some of the funniest moments (my current favorite is when the gang realizes that Kendal not slept for two weeks AND he actually doesnt know how to, and the subsequent moment where Kendal freaks out bc he’s never experienced the slight falling sensation before sleep before. this was a couple of chapters ago, right before the Collector’s conversational monologue about who she is and what she’s doing).
Its stuff like this that makes this comic distinctive from others- the characters are not only relatable but they also exhibit very human tendancies. Red spares no details, and keeps the tiny things other authors would skip. Respect <3
They are all under the Curse of the Author Making Main Characters Look Distinct, which is widespread among all works of fiction. There is no known cure.
My cliffhangers for this page and the last page are not posting for some reason, I’m not even sure if this comment will post. If it does, does anyone know why my comments haven’t shown up for the last two pages? It is really starting to piss me off.
Hiiii and Steve, Lord of Darkness:
For some reason, it can take a while for comments to show up after they’re posted. Another scar leftover from the big site crash.
I am aware, however the cliffhanger I sent for Monday’s page still hasn’t shown up. And neither has the one for this page that I sent this morning. It has often taken several hours for a comment I’ve made to finally appear, though since the last one I sent to this page has appeared now maybe it will work properly.
Will this comment actually go up? Can I post this page’s cliffhanger now for you peeps’ reading pleasure?
Tune in Right Now to Find Out!
How many guards does Zuurith have? Is the Embassy a safe place to hide? Has Shrike already used stone magic to chisel wanted posters of the Floof squad and have them plastered all across the city in the time they’ve spent sitting here? Do all the guards have wind lacrimas? Does Alinua even know how to use one or will she be like that 90-year-old gramma who can’t use a cellphone? Can Tess break through that sealing cuff with that small bolt? Is Falst currently having a nightmare about Temptations cat treats?
Just in case you haven’t noticed, your comments did go through. Sometimes there’s a lag between submission and posting. If you come back a couple hours later and still don’t see them, check whether the total number of comments is the same. If so, it’s a glitch; refresh the page and you should see all the new comments.
Oh man, I am sooo late to the party. My first thought was definitely ‘She’s gonna warn Erin’, but ‘Distract the guards’ is a good one too. Also, haven’t we seen these things in action before?
Wind Lacrima: Hey Erin, we’ve had a run-in with the guards and are on the run and Falst is unconscious so if you could finish figuring out how to get The Void Dragon out of your body quicker that’d be a huge help!
The Junior Archivist: WHAT
Hello! I have read through your entire comic so far, and I have some feedback 🙂
Personally, I think the world and basic framework you have going on is very solid. A good, although not perfectly communicated setting with interesting interactions between the caste systems of god, elder god, sorcerer, mortal, beast and whatnot.
That having been said, your writing is sorely lacking in what I can best describe as well probably a sense of rhythm? It feels like we’re ending up where you want to be, or we’re having emotional beats that you want to hit, but you’re forgetting to put down time or emotional foundation to make what you’re writing not feel forced and trope-y (and yes I’m aware of the irony). For example, I can totally buy that mr cat person would be so fiercely loyal to mr he-god that they’re willing to run off to the prison to try to free them because that’s the first person to show them kindness or something, but that’s not really how the scenes they’ve been in play out.
It feels like you were very eager to get your party on the road, to the point where characterization took a hit, and I can’t entirely fault you for making that choice – it’s easy to think that noone wants to see all that fluff, but I think it’s important to make sure you hit all the needed beats. For example, perhaps include scenes where your cat person is embarrassed to eat around others, or thinks they’re going to be judged for something innocuous like breaking something that can be replaced, and then blondie or pink elf go all like “oh nonono that’s fine, you don’t have to be ashamed!” – give us the impression that cat person is acclimated to the party before you start using the undying loyalty of the cat person towards their friends.
I should point out that this isn’t an exclusive trait to the cat person, they’re just the easiest example I can explain. From your romantic subplots video I’m gonna assume that blondie and pinky aren’t meant to be like… a thing? If they are then you can ignore this, but the setup to them travelling together also felt pretty weak, with it giving the impression that pinky totes has the hots for blondie, and he’s just so gosh darn oblivious and nice and he doesn’t notice. Pinky’s emotional attachment doesn’t really work for similar reasons, because there’s no downtime before the two start travelling together, and the idea of “oh I need to stay with you” feels very much like a wink wink nudge nudge “I need to stay with you” excuse, because so little time is spent on her having a fear of what her power could do. Hell, her powers get cleaned out before we even get a proper scene of her struggling with her powerset, even though from what I can tell that’s probably what you were going for.
I don’t think this is even impossible to salvage, I genuinely think you could go back and make some small tweaks to expressions, dialogues and add a few pages of downtime-y panels, and I think you’ll have a genuinely great thing going on. It seems like this is probably one of your first attempts at something of this scale, and I think it’s fine to go back and tweak what you’ve already done. Maybe this is coloured by my personal tastes a bit too, but I find really emotionally resonant stuff can be done well, and I think if you applied some of the thoughts you have in your videos to what you have so far, you’ll be able to make it much better! 😀
Koopla,
Smiley-faces notwithstanding this critique comes off extremely patronizing. From the assumption/implication that the writer isn’t applying her own learning from Trope Talk videos to her writing, to talk of “salvaging” the work by doing the things you think would improve it…JEEZ, yo.
Respect that the artist knows better than you do where their own art is headed. If you do? Then express that respect through the way you critique the work. If you think you have done that here, you are incorrect. This reads like a teacher talking to a first-year writing student, and that is not the relationship you have with this author.
My recommendations for respectful critique would be
a) The unassailable fortress of “This is how this scene/beat made me feel.” There’s literally no arguing with this, because it’s just your own feelings/responses. It’s a data point the author can use going forward, and unless you’re an extreme outlier it’s useful whether the author intended that thing to make you feel that way or not. This even extends to critiques like, “The fast pace of the early chapters has made me feel confused about why the characters are so tightly-knit.” Even in this case, there are rare cases where that writing decision can turn out to be intentional and the author can go, “cool, all according to plan.” Also, “I felt this way when reading it” is easier for an author to reply to with “that sounds like a you problem” if your response is a total outlier.
b) Make no assumptions, or include assumptions as part of every critique: “If you’re going for a Zuurith/Falst ship, I haven’t seen enough time with them together to really feel it yet.” Right now large swaths your critique makes assumptions about both what kind of story is being told and where it’s headed and basing your judgments of its effectiveness on those, but not all of those assumptions are being expressed. Instead it’s just “characterization took a hit” and “sense of rhythm.”
I apologize if my reply reads as patronizing. I’m aware that’d be a small dollop of hypocrisy. I don’t apologize if my reply reads as angry, because I am, a bit. If I were the writer on a work like this and I came across a comment like yours I don’t think it would help me craft a better work and I do think it’d take the wind out of my sails for an hour or two and I just hope Red has better coping mechanisms than I do for that kind of thing.
You realize red talks the exact same way about other people’s works right? I don’t think she’d be dishing it out if she couldn’t take it.
And yes, it is all my opinion, that’s kind of the nature of literary work – there is no objectivity. I even acknowledge as such in my comment. It’s very much just a list of my personal thoughts and whether or not she takes them into account. I’m coming into this under the knowlege that
A: This is probably one of the first projects of this size she’s done,
B: Webcomics are a long and taxing commitment because each panel takes a long time to create, and that can make it very difficult to stay motivated while also giving enough time for characterization. Writing two characters talking is easy. Having two characters talk in a comic means drawing a bunch of different images of the same thing.
C: She’s got both an actual life outside of this comic AND is also spending time on making quality youtube content with it’s own illustrations.
In light of the above, I felt my insight as an outside observer who experienced the entire story up until this point in one sitting, rather than having worked on a specific point in the story in increments for what, like 2 years now(?), might be useful to her. And if it isn’t, it’s not a big deal for either of us. Youtubers get plenty of actual mean comments, I seriously doubt my words will mean anything to her if she doesn’t find them to be of any use – and I’m not super invested in this either, I just think it’s a neat story with flaws. Either they’re useful and she uses them, or they’re not and everyone moves on with their day.
I’m sorry if my words made you angry, or offended you, or made you feel that I don’t respect the artist, but I’m just saying my opinion here. I’m under no delusion that what I’m saying is objective, or that I know everything better, but I also think the same of artists, which is why I try to give my two cents whenever I can.
I really appreciate how the main obstacle here is not “how do we navigate the city without being defeated by the guards” but rather “how do we navigate the city without crushing and/or releasing the unblemished wrath of the primordial soul of life itself on innocent people”
Alinua gonna send a message to Erin.
I think.
Love how Tess isn’t stupid, she’s actually quite observant and thoughtful. She’s just a bit blunt at times
No collateral.
They can’t fight, run, nor hide, but…
Now she’s got a plan!
How does lacrima work though, is it created with a spell that Alinua does not know, or does creating it require some kind of magical substance?
lol poor Falst is gonna be so confused when he wakes up. I can imagine him getting up and be like “okay where am I and where did that evil mask lady go? Bring her here so I can slap her in the face!”
Yes this is.. erm… guard. The fugitives have gone to erm…. the part of the city that is not the aseran embassy. Yes.
Anybody think that guard looks like the one who apologized to dainix about Zuurith’s messed up system?
“Hey Erin! Alinua here. So we got into trouble with the law and are now on the run. Meet you outside the city? Also, we made a friend!”
This also reminds me Tess is looking for Erin, by name, if I recall correctly. SO that will be interesting
I’m guessing using “Be gay do crime” as the rollover text would’ve been too easy.
Can’t run without lightning powers, can’t/won’t fight their way out, can’t avoid detection for too long since a trio of lion Ferin, cloud elf and metal caste woman stand out like a sore thumb and can’t leave the city both undetected and without their friends.

Methinks Alinua’s plan is to knock out and steal that guard’s wind lacrima and send the guards and hunters false messages, causing them to move away from them so they have a clear line to the embassy.
I can’t wait for them to mess up the ambush, get tossed into jail, and have to fight Vash to the death!
Alinua looks like my cat in the last panel. Also this is taking a much different path than I thought it would. Unpredictable stories are the best! I can’t see how they end. It’s always so sad that I know how most films and books are gonna end by the time I reach the halfway point. So this is very much a breath of fresh air and I wish I can write something unpredictable as well
*Bonk* time
Operation: Spam the Guards is now in motion.
I’m a little worried about any feelings Alinua might have about Falst getting hurt with her seeing as she was the one who wanted to go outside and he got hurt defending her. Might be some guilt there
SLEEPING FALST! PROTECT HIM

Tess……Alinua……….. pretty….. (oh, and falst too ig)
Tess constantly scratching at the restraining cuff is pretty relatable. I mean locking your magic is one thing, but far more importantly this thing is itchy as chuff! lol
alt text: alinua in the city, what crimes will she commit
Just noticed that Alinua’s ears poke at the sides of her hood. Nice detail.
I’m having trouble explaining exactly why, but I really like this page.
Today I’m particularly emphatic towards Falst, maybe because of the way Alinua is holding him, idk
OHHH MY GOD THIS IS AMAZING!!!
OHH MY GOD THIS IS AMAZING!!!!!
Did I get blocked or something? My comments won’t show up…. If you can see this please help me figure this out….
Did I say something and get myself blocked?

TL;DR: This is it guys, let’s plan our next crimes. Or, you know, just get the (inappropriate) out of dodge.

When reading tess’s lines, I can’t decide if i should give her an australian or scottish accent.
