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.

It’s an emotional and moral minefield. I can’t decide with Calliel or Aya is making the right call.
This needed to be done before the danger hit, not after. She’s endangered his life – without his permission – by waiting. Courage is good. Judgment is better. As old as she is, she should be better at it.
