Due to family medical issues, Requiem is on indefinite hiatus.
An elderly family member of ours took a bad fall on Labor Day night, and we’ve been dealing with the aftermath ever since. Hopefully, things will get sorted out, but as of right now, doing a daily comic is not something my schedule can allow.
Sorry to have this happen, but as everyone knows, real life comes first….and at least we don’t have too many running storylines on the backburner.
Thorongil Caladharas. “The First Mariner” comes by his nickname honestly. Thorongil was the original captain of the ships that found this land 7000 years ago. While the years have not touched him physically, they have made there mark in other ways. His grandson has helped him adjust to the passage of time and over the last few years has helped to keep him grounded. Now he is preparing for a new marriage (to Jessica Tindal of House Tindal)and looking forward to a time he can retire…or at least take a leave of absence and let the younger generation run things for awhile.
My home country has a pretty storied maritime history. I’ve had the fortune and privilege of watching a lovingly restored three-master set sail once during a historical event.
Fifteen year old me didn’t have quite the vocabulary I do, but in retrospect the only word that really did the sight justice was ‘magnificent’.
