...they banned fire, hm? Guess they're that evil.
(Odd transition from panel 1 to panel 2. "Yeah everything's going well. Oh wait, now it doesn't.")

Blame Zersk I take responsibilty for that. Oh, well. We're working on the next strips now, I promise they'll be at least slightly more interesting than the first one.

I think an empire that banned both magic and fire would be a pretty quickly self-correcting problem.

"I don't know why, but we keep losing to that small kingdom."
"You mean the one that has the metal armor and weapons, and cooked food, and magic?"
"Yeah, that one. I don't get it."

Damn it, Sahaar. I was watching the Fancomic Sub-forum, waiting for you to put it up. And then you put it up here.

Yeah, I'm thinking about the fire thing. I sent him something about a whole bunch of things in the comic, so we'll see.

If it's OotS style, shouldn't it be in Fancomics?

If it isn't hosted anywhere else, it should be in Fancomics.

And don't mind the soldier in panel three holding the sword in a wierd way. He's actually a lumberjack.

"I never wanted to be a soldier. I wanted to be a lumberjack!"

Just remove that part from the URL and you're good.

'Kay, I finished page two.

Since it seems that Sahaar might not see it for a little, I'll post it here.

"The path says to go through here" ...? The paper/parchment mayhaps?

So... yeah, at least the names are descriptive, that's always a good thing, right?

Those are houses, they have little roofs. Roofs? Is that the correct spelling?

Sorry, I was gone for the past few weeks. Comic should up soon.

By the by, how would we go about moving the thread to fancomics? Using the report thingie, right?

I think so, yes. But is it actually a fancomic because it uses stick-type art?

Personally i'd rather have it stay here, so i can keep an eye on it. (i don't check the fancomic forum) >_>

Well, basically any comic that's hosted one the website needs to be in the fancomics section. We could keep it here, but we'd need to host it off-site. I could do that, but I'd need to see if Sahaar's okay with that.

Why thank you.

I'm going to try to fix the blur problem. Don't know why it's doing that.

And there goes the fourth wall. It's almost like it's a thing on this website.

I like the writing. And the art.
