Behind the Curtain

This was meant to be 2 pages, but the latter half was taking so long I decided to split it up rather than make you all wait any longer. You would think being stuck indoors I'd have nothing better to do, I'd be getting pages and pages done… maybe if I were a more well-adjusted human that'd be the outcome! I know when most webcomic schedules slip, it's a sure warning a artist has lost the passion for their work and indefinite hiatus/quitting is sure to follow, but let me assure you that is not the case. It's more I'm frustrated because there's stuff I'm looking forward to so much that I'm cranky that I'm not at that scene yet but I need to finish this important scene first because stories need set-up after all! Once we get to those I'll probably hit my stride again. I'm also still trying to adjust to a lot of changes, Nick thankfully works from home for now but we both have ADHD and distract the hell out of each other with our work preferences!

Thank you all for reading and stay safe, friends!

Oh man, I've been reading this since I was probably 14 and I can't believe 10 years later I finally caught up. This is amazing Amelius. Great work! I can't wait to keep reading xx

great page as usual, just a little too wordy but we got there. I hear you on the ADHD, I have it and that's one reason I havent updated my webcomic, besides waiting on my new gaming machine to get here thanks to Trump dumping money on us. But now that im done playing with it I'll start working on it again

As a writer, i related to your author's note way too hard

At least he found it amusing, that could have gone very badly.

K'ale has to learn the hard way that being clever just doesn't work with some kings. :) Don't worry about an occasional slip in the schedule. When a webcomic has been online for such a long time it is usually a sure sign that its creator won't just suddenly stop updating. I can't think of any comic that has never had one - and I read lots. I can relate to how you feel, though, because I haven't managed to update for two years myself and no single day passes when I don't want to kick myself for it. However, I don't consider my project stopped just because of a prolonged creative break that was at first enforced and is now hard to break - as long as I can still make terrible puns there is hope! You are one of the creators I tend to look up to as an example for keeping it going. Instead of worrying, it always makes me happy to see a new page, and they're always worth the wait.

I think Roderick likes his moxie, but disagrees with his plan. I get that, as burning an ally tends to take other bridges out unintentionally. Also, I am willing to wait patiently for as long as it takes. I quite enjoy this comic, and want to see what happens to everyone in the end.

He's not playing the game of thrones right.
