I think the best part of this one, was Kairn and Lyssa little bantering about dark magic. Love how Lyssa just wanted to fry them.

Lyssa's solution to most problems is fry it or hit it with a sword ;)

thanks :)

Having read both parts, this makes much more sense. I love that you use the same captions for both and manage do have completely different events. And the last ones are very similar.

I giggled at Lyssa and Kairn which isn't that big a surprise.

The captions are a nursery rhyme about activating the temple. I figured I'd keep the general idea of the theme going even without the vows.

Lyssa and Kairn was the easiest and most fun part of these 2 to do.

thanks :)

I totally grinned when I opened this and saw the pieces of rhyme. How great is that! And also grinned at Lyssa accusing Kairn of "dark magic."

But most of these were interesting in a more serious way...I really liked Lyssa's comment about Death standing with the others. And the action of the second one (is that Tristan??)

Also I must know how everything goes down with the gods and bodies!! ;)

thank you! :)

I didn't want to give up the montage business (or my cookie crumbs) so I decided to make a pair out of light & dark, and the song seemed fitting for both and made it nice and short.

The division between "good" and "bad" has come to feel almost arbitrary to me, so I thought I'd sort of call that out with Lyssa and Kairn. And Kairn was really my only good option for doing sigils in this one.

That is Tristan. The first time he meets Mara. :)

And I will really try to get back to working on it!

Hee, I like Lyssa's blunt approach to solving all problems. The second-to-last one is a little sad. And the temple shows up again!

Thanks :)

Lyssa has very little tact or finesse about anything.

And teen Rune is kinda sad and pathetic, but then he meets Ski and friends and things get better.
