My comment for this page from Gaia: sic mundus creatus est: For a long time, a concert by Cecile de Sars in Midgard played a pivotal role in The Way Back Home. But I ultimately rewrote that part of the story so that the whole action takes place in and around Greendew's castle.

My comment for this page from Gaia: sic mundus creatus est: At the time, I wasn’t aware that the name Arathor originally comes from the Lord of the Rings. I only knew the name from my parents who played a character with that name in a Dungeons & Dragons campaign.

My comment for this page from Gaia: sic mundus creatus est: Some people are critical of such long sections with background information about the setting of a comic.

My comment for this page from Gaia: sic mundus creatus est: Such a simple magic trick isn’t really worthy of Lilith. But since I found the scene so cute, I included it anyway.

My comment for this page from Gaia: sic mundus creatus est: This scene was obviously inspired by the famous prom scene in

My comment for this page from Gaia: sic mundus creatus est: Lilith felt the disruption of the Bluestream caused by the spell she cast at the end of The Bipartite Mind weeks before any other wizard. Since it’s her own spell causing the disruption, this isn’t overly surprising, though.
