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.
Julia Wells, significant other of Ian Caladharas. Julia co runs the Wells Hotel in Erech’s Clocktower District. For those people who have rpg’d in this world: The Wells Hotel is now known as Cytheron’s. Julia and Ian tied the knot in the City of Greyrest in the Crossing Territories.
What I want to know is why, in the face of an imminent extinction level attack the Taioseach and the Tanista were wandering around town together, unarmored and unescorted. Was Tobalkin messing with their heads? The Taioseach leads … The Tanist (or Tanista) goes to a place of safety to preserve the continuity of command and succession.
In comic #4422 (2021 February 24), lockdown was scheduled for “tomorrow” (Day 3, Month of Second Sowing), all preparations were done, they thought they were safe. As Ian put it, “our last chance to do it before the world goes to hell.”
Sadly, somebody thought that Day 2, Month of Second Sowing, was the perfect time for the second sowing of world death. Eight millenia (more or less) after the first sowing of world death.
One can only hope that they got to eat lunch before the world went to hell.
Just caught up. Oh, this hurts. Julia was always one of my favorite characters. Good on you James, for not shying away from one of the many needful deaths, but it still hurts. Which, now that I think about it, is a testament to your writing.

Enjoy the break! Looks like things are going to be roller coasting along here towards the finale!
