Episode 35

Kern: "Since drowlings were brought up quite a few times and the lore bit does make the comparison, these Aesir don't fall so easily to demons. There are reasons why they appear to be on the winning side of the war. 2022 for the armor model. No feathers though!"

Episode 36

Kern: "What comes up must go down. Attached, an early draft of what a conflict in the glassland could look like between angel and Sibelle. Too bad Sibelle left her weapons at home. Drawn April, 2020."

Episode 39

Kern: "Regretting life decisions. Burning, stabbing, and fall. This hero has 2 brain cells."

Episode 40

Kern: "New knees and new back. "Goat boi" changed horns design so many times in the last few years. Ended up with the easiest ones to draw."

Episodes 41-50

Episode 41

Kern: "Punching is a solid comeback argument. Still no Cohla, where is the slime? At least Goat boi fists still work."

Episode 42

Kern: "Give up your bones. Concept from 2017, the first slime and the start of bones fixation. You guessed about the slime, but an episode early."

Episode 43

Kern: "I choose home. Windows difficulty at the moment so here's a concept art of Helian housing by Darkvolt."

Episode 44

Kern: "Cast down without wings in search for answers. The Nine armor concept wasn't a reuse of a concept for the Valkyrie, it was just meant to be her armor eventually. Battle loot!"

Episode 45

Kern: "First story's finale. Some old Hel prototype sketches from many years ago. Including an interaction between Nine and one of the biting mouths."

Interlude

Interlude, Part 1

Kern: "Sibelle's return. Interlude, part 1 of 2. These were made with Mary painting right on top of a quick sketch. The replacement to the chibi pages of old that needs to be done fast so I can work on storyboarding the entire second season and do all the concept arts."

Interlude, Part 2

Kern: "Payment due. Interlude 2 , a continuation of noses being stolen by this villain."

Special Pages

Holiday Break Chibi
