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.
Thorondor “Ian” Caladharas is the 18 year old heir to one of the first of the Merchant Houses. An intelligent, independent teenager; Ian has a tendency towards irreverence and and frustration. In all honesty, he doesn’t care what his grandfather says he is heir to, he just wants to have a normal life. Or at least as normal a one as possible. (As my skills improved I made some revamps to this characters appearance to reflect aging and such as well. The top picture is how he is currently modeled. )
… oof. Yeah, I can see how that’d make forgiving people harder.
“Time heals all wounds” kind of implies that the memories fade, or at least that the pain associated with a particular memory becomes less acute. Not so for Nin-Banda. Ever.
If she loses someone close to her, she’ll feel that loss like it was yesterday for the rest of her life. Which has already been centuries and could potentially be /forever/.
.. /ow/. Ian, you’re the closest proximity. Give her a hug. Now.
