Precipitation :: PG13

Prose

“You can though!” she laughs, then fires a bolt of lightning at their feet.

The electricity surges through the rain soaked cobblestone, and a chorus of cries rings out as the figures shudder and collapse to the ground.

But from behind them comes rhythmic, heavy thumping footfalls and the sound of claws scraping against rock, and they whip their heads round to look at the other end of the alleyway.

Sharp beak, beady eyes, a crown of red and a beard of white, the great head of a giant fowl peers around the side of the building, her rider’s partisan lowering in preparation for the charge.

Transcription

Panel 1: Tempest points the gun wand towards the ground, and lightning arcs from her finger to its tip and begins to surge into a bright mass of cyan hued magic.

Panel 2: Fzzam! A bolt of blue lightning strikes the puddle at the guard’s feet and electricity surges up their bodies.

Panel 3: The guards freeze in place, electricity arcing all over them. “Grr-k!” is all they manage to say.

Panel 4: “So how’s about you halt for me!” Tempest says with a mocking grin.

Panel 5: Thump, thump, Tempest’s smile falls and she turns to the source of this new sound.

Panel 6: And on the other side of the alleyway is a mounted figure atop a great avian beast.

WOO!! CHICKEN TIME!!! This lady, as are the rest of the guard's mounts, was based on faverolles hens :)

Hello hello and welcome to my new website !! :D

For the most part, the site is the same as the ComicFury mirror—but there are a few improvements! They're currently pretty minor, if you change one of your display preferences on CF the page will load and then it will apply your preferences after the page finishes loading. Now that I have access to the backend however, when you change a display preference it'll check your settings before the page loads. This means site skins are on the way! I'll be making a light mode and a low contrast mode in the future :)

This was made possible thanks to the SpiderForest Collective, who have generously provided me with hosting space on their server. If you look at the banner to the left, you'll see a random comic from one of the other members of the collective! If any of them catch your eye, be sure to check them out and give them your love <3

If you're not familiar with what a collective is, it's when a group of artists band together and pool resources together towards a common goal. What this means for me is I now have a wonderful community of support from other independent webcomic creators! And what this means for you is that if I for example do a print run for HotS, I've got a lot of folks who can help me get that organised and successfully fundraised. Stuff like that! You also get this shiny new website to visit, and lots of really great comic recommendations on the left :)

You also get to read one page ahead of ComicFury! Click through to see the next page!!

Shoutout to my supporters! Become a supporter to read ahead and help me make the comic!

Chicken enthusiast woah

Already adoring your comic - it's quick-paced and your dialogue is pretty good! And of course your art is phenomenal - I especially love your colouring and choice of colours!
