Chapter 2 – 32
The comic of the week is…
Which if you have looked at my links page, you have probably already read. This comic is a goofy Terry Pratchett-esque fantasy adventure through what’s probably the land of dreams. It uses different art styles to convey different universes, includes toast-powered vehicles, some pretty interesting magic concepts. And well, if you’re here, world-hopping shenanigans are INDEED something you are interested in, so that alone should give you reason to check it out.
Seriously, though, it’s a good lark. There are some sweet magic effects in actions/fight scenes using the “written scroll of magic runes” effect that I absolutely adore but cannot personally replicate. And I love funny fantasy. Worth checking out? I say aye.

I AM VERY PROUD OF THIS PAGE. Perhaps moreso than usual because like, I haven’t been doing pages. Uhh, on the comic updating front, I replaced this page with updated art, and I also updated a couple panels on page four and one other page which I can’t remember at the moment. I definitely recommend having a look at the redone chapter 2: 3,4 though. The art is far clearer. I’m not going to prioritize fixing pages over new pages, but there are a few more (specifically: the four pages following that one) that I badly want to update with cleaner art. So, until I at the very least get those four pages redone, I will be sticking to one page a week. Then I’ll see if I can build a few page buffer, and return to giving multiple pages a week.
Nothing else to report except a vicious cold and my relief that codeine is over-the-counter in Canada because NOTHING else has managed to stop my coughing, and I have seriously tried EVERYTHING else that can be bought in a pharmacy for coughing. I got tired of pushing my diaphragm back down my throat, what can I say. Call in sick? Nahhh, not until I’m coughing so hard it makes me puke, and I have to brace myself against chairs to stay upright. Cause of course what I got isn’t contagious, and antibiotics are useless for it. :(
I’m screwing around a bit with slightly tinted lineart. I was aiming to avoid it before, because I wanted starker lines, but I’m very pleased with the outcome here.
Naleta: omg one of my fans is still here. (HUGS) Don’t worry, I’m not over-stressing myself, actually, it’s a huge relief to be doing some art for ME since I’ve been up to my elbows in commissions I don’t have enough time for. I really miss doing art for me, and I think my enthusiasm to be doing it is showing in the improved quality. Don’t you worry, the story will unfold at some sort of pace, at the very least! SSG isn’t the longest story I’ve ever written by any stretch of the imagination.

Just noticed this is back again. Welcome back from Hiatus.
I boldly go where few lurkers have gone before!
Anyway, the scroll over text kinda creeped me out. In a good way though. Added to the sense that there is stuff hidden in this world.
Still checking in, but first time back in a couple of months. Still glad to be back and see an update. Wishing you the very best!
Did you get my donation?
yay a page!This seems like an interesting development… of course we’d need more info to make much sense of it. now I need to go comment on the other page. this comic is so interesting but the pages are way to far between.
Is this story comic now dead since there has been no updates or information since October last year?
If not it would be nice to be given some idea when postings will resume.
Hi, Ivan! I am actually working on the next page right now. It’s been a long time coming but I’ve finally gotten back into making art. I’m just trying to get a small buffer together before I resume updates, as after all, it’s been so long, what’s another week or three. I am alive and I am actively drawing. While I can’t promise an exact day, I can tell you that the next page’s backgrounds have been done and it’s mostly inked.
Wow. October. It feels so much more recent than that. Depression is a killer. D:
Hi Ti, thanks for the update. When a comic goes into a very long period of nothing I wonder what has happened to the creator, are they ill, have they moved on to something else, has their life changed. It is especially worrying that in the past couple of years the group of bookmarks I have listed as ‘inactive’ has grown considerably. Please try and not be too depressed, I know it can be a killer because I have lost two friends to it.
Anyway, I think all of those that come here to check on activity will rejoice that you are still with us and working on the next few pages.
