Oh hey Rikku's here too! This one another reason I never cut to the bakery in this chapter. I didn't want to let the reader in on who all was at the bakery by the time Luna got there to keep the ba...

I had planned for Team Lubo to be on the losing end to Margrethe. Part of the reason I had Auda go down via overexertion was for this, but it also benefits the story for me in another way.

Oh hey, the last chapter had a big wave on page 16 and now this chapter has a big wave on page 16. Anyway, i have nothing else to say about this page.

I was initially going to have panel 6 with a gradient background. But with how big it was, it seemed like a waste to have it empty, so I put in a minimalistic representation of where she comes from...

With that reveal out of the way, I figured now would be the perfect time to get inside Otto's head. It would most likely be the best chance for the reader to understand what Otto is going through.<...

The reason I had Auda, Otto, and Margrethe all share a cover 2 chapters in a row is for this reveal specifically. Initially Margrethe flubs Akera's name due to the "g" and "k" sounds being extremel...

I'm surprised this is the first time I've done this for a comic page, but I ended up having the panels scattered and separated. I figured this would be a good way to visually represent Auda's curre...

She did it once, and she does it again! Instead of an entire rib cage, however, it's leg bones. I suppose this time it would have to be a mix of the tibia and fibula.
Not much else i have to ...

Did I mention that Margrethe's power is surprisingly fun to write for? Yeah I got nothing much else to say about this page. I guess I could mention that I left the Japanese onomatopoeia w/o it's ow...

Now it's sorta explained that Margrethe doesn't want to touch the water. Basically she knows that being in the water would put her at the mercy of Auda's power, so it's best to not step foot in it....

Now we're back in the action for quite a few pages. It'll elaborated a bit more in the next page, but Margrethe is trying to avoid getting pulled into the water from Auda's power. Hopefully that is...

And now we pick up right where we left off and the explanation for how Auda got here is very simple. As useful as it would be to wear out Margrethe underwater, Auda had to think fast to get Lubo ou...

If you're thinking Margrethe doesn't answer Lubo's question from panel 1 because she couldn't read his mouth, then you'd be correct! Of course, Lubo does not know she's deaf, so he wouldn't be figu...

This page was kinda fun to make even tho it took a bit more doing than usual. I am glad I don't have to draw that hand trap again after this page tho. It was difficult to keep it consistent.
If you thought you weren't gonna see Alpha Lubo at all in this fight, then hopefully this is a pleasant surprise for you. Figure I'll take this opportunity to remind you all that Lubo can't use Lun...
