We’re still in the mistlands for a bit, so have some uncanny flora and fauna!
Because all my readers are unusually smart and perceptive, I’m taking the approach of not using text to explain pretty much any of the worldbuilding. I think the journey of discovery will be a fun challenge for all of us.

This was going to be just one of six or seven panels, but I decided it needed some room. Enjoy a weird landscape as we start this new chapter.

C.W. Stoneking, “The Love Me or Die”
Good morning!
The newsletter is going out tomorrow. Brooke has a new pack of cards for you, and I’m going to an event in April, and there will be cat pictures in there also. If that’s something that interests you, put your email in the box at this link, then check your inbox for a confirmation.
We’ve concluded the third chapter of this volume of Last Watch Before Dawn! There will be two more. Bonus art will go up tomorrow, and then we’ll start the next chapter on Friday. Now’s a good time to get caught up if you’ve been waiting. Here’s the table of contents.
A couple of petitions:
Via Win Without War: Block the sale of bombs and bulldozers to the Israeli government
Via Just Foreign Policy: No troops in Iran, no on the draft
That’s all for now. I love you; stay safe and stop by again soon.

LAST PAGE OF THIS CHAPTER!
This page had seven panels in my outline, and I decided to pare them down–partly to make less work for me, and partly to make the page less busy and have more room for text. There’s actually text on this page!
Bonus art next Tuesday, and then we’ll start the new chapter on Friday.
Warnings for blood, a severed head, and what I would describe as setting-appropriate passive suicidal ideation. Things will improve in the next chapter, I promise.

Listen, we need the man to be miserable so that it will have more weight when things get better.
This four-panel page was a nice gift from my past self to my present self. I have a bunch of pages with seven or so panels coming up.
This is the penultimate page of this chapter. The last one will be up on Friday. On a related note, I’ve now noted the chapters in the Table of Contents on the Stories tab above (under the Menu if you’re on mobile).
Warnings for blood, general misery, and a severed head.

If the thumbnail doesn’t give it away, this page is gruesome. Approach at your own discretion.
Two more pages in this chapter! By this time next week, I will be done torturing Ichiro (for now. Both my husband and a reader have recently pointed out that I put my protagonists through the wringer).

Silhouettes are so dramatic and so much fun. They also save me a ton of time.
Also, did I not put Page 36 where it was supposed to be? I was just going to update the links and it didn’t have an image. You know you’re allowed to tell me if I screw up, right? I promise I won’t be mad.
I researched what blood loss does to a person, and among other things, it’s (obviously) very dehydrating. So that’s what’s going on here. We have three more pages of this chapter, so bear with me.
The full page is below (I definitely checked this time):

I’m prepping ramen today (the softboiled eggs need to marinate overnight), so here’s this page really quick. It’s got some blood in it, and is largely depressing, but nothing too bad.
