Gaia

Student: Master Langford, where can I find the book “A Critical Analysis of Non-Periodic Redstream Spells”? Grimbald Langford: Follow me! Grimbald Langford: Huh? Grimbald Langford: What in Bhaal‘s– Student: Which book is that, Master Langford? Grimbald Langford: A very dangerous one, “On the Manipulation of the Mind by Means of Bhaalstream Spells” by Hastor Öhmlund. […]

I’ve received enough applications already. Please don’t apply anymore! As you may know, the Gaia anthology will be supplemented by a making-of book. The book is now almost finished and already in a pretty good shape in my opinion. I’m now looking for an editor, who must be a native speaker, to give it a […]

Gaia will be updated in a reduced rate until the end of the story, mostly due to the ongoing work on The Complete Gaia anthology. But I will try to update it twice a week at least occasionally. Ilias: It’s no use. The whole room is surrounded by rock. Caption: A few hours later. Alissa: […]

Unfortunately, Gaia will only update once a week in the next weeks. Viviana: What do we do now?! Lilith: If we could somehow transfer the soul energy back into my body, I’d probably be able to do more. Ilias: But how do we do that? Lilith: No idea. Ryn: Maybe we have to return the […]

Alissa: The door! It’s closed again! Viviana: That’s not good! Not good at all! Viviana: Nothing! Viviana: Lili, can you open the door?! Lilith: Let me try! Lilith: RAAHRR! Lilith: I can’t make it work! Viviana: No no no no no…

Lilith: HAAAAH Ryn: Lili, are you all right? Lilith: I’m… I’m okay. Lilith: It was just such an overwhelming sensation. Ilias: Let’s go! The faster we’re back in Greendew, the better!

Lilith: Ryn, it’s hard to put into words how irresponsible and– Ryn: Look what I found in the Source! Lilith: Dear Gaia! Alissa: You found it! Viviana: We did it! We really did it! Lilith: Let’s not celebrate too early. The sphere isn’t in Greendew yet. Alissa: I hope Savos’ wizards will find a way […]

This is one of my favorite pages of the year. I hope you like it too. Ryn: Hey, guys, watch this! Lilith: Ryn?! What are you doing there? Ryn: It’s super easy to walk on the wall or ceiling of this room! Ryn: You can even… Uh-oh– Lilith: Ryn!? Ryn: Outta the way! Alissa: AUGH! […]

Unfortunately, there’ll be only one new page next week.

Sorry, there will be only one update this week. I hope we’ll be able to update twice next week again.

Viviana: The door! Are you really sure that the Source is behind it? Lilith: Yes. Ilias: Fabius, no one may enter this wing of the Shadowkeep as long as the door is open! Fabius: Yes, sir! Lilith: Vivi, the honor of opening the door to the Source is all yours. Viviana: All right.

Lilith: We need to go on! Viviana: Do we have to look for enemies or traps? Lilith: No. Viviana: Wait! Signpost: Useless teleporters Viviana: We’re in the Shadowkeep?! The whole nightmare… for nothing?! Lilith: No, not for nothing. Our trip through the shadow realm prepared our minds… Viviana: For what? Lilith: … Opening the door […]

Lilith: Do you remember when you suddenly saw five copies of me in Vis? I told you that it was just another blueshift, but that was a lie. In truth, I created clones of myself. Lilith: They were, of course, much weaker than my true self. But strong enough to guide the others safely through […]

Viviana: But why?! She… she barely knew me! Ilias: Apart from San and Lili, none of us would have stood a chance against the shadow creatures. Ilias: When we saw that you weren’t going to make it, she went without hesitation. She’s a real heroine! Viviana: I… I… I… set her up during my speech! […]

Viviana: Why not?! Lilith: No one has ever succeeded in leaving the shadow realm created by the mind of another person. Lilith: San can’t walk through the door. And there’s no other exit. Lilith: Hundreds of these shadow creatures will be attacking her. She’s probably returned to Gaia by now… Viviana: San is dead… Ilias: […]

Ilias, Ryn and Alissa: Vivi! Viviana: Ilias…! Viviana: It was so horrible! Ilias: I know. Viviana: Quick! We need to help San! A whole army of shadow monsters was after her! Viviana: What are you waiting for?! The portal may not stay open much longer! Lilith: We can’t help her, Vivi.

This page contains a secret…

San: Huuh! Viviana: San! San: The door! Go through it! As fast as you can! Viviana: Wait! I’ll help you! San: No! I can handle them myself! Viviana: But… San: The door, Viviana! Quick!

Viviana: More of them are coming! San: Don’t worry! We‘re almost there! Viviana: How do we open the door? San: You just have to press your hand against it. Viviana: Watch out, San! San: Stay right behind me!

Viviana: San, I can’t go on! My legs hurt so much! San: Let me have a look. San: Better? Viviana: Yes! Thank you! San: Look around every now and then! These beasts like to attack from behind! Viviana: Will the others come too? San: No. Lilith needs to conserve her energy. Viviana: And the others? […]

San: Rise and shine, sleepyhead! Viviana: Huh? San: Come with me. Viviana: San…? You live?! San: Of course I do! Viviana: But I saw a demon ramming his sword into you! San: That was just a doppelgänger, a fragment of your imagination. Viviana: My imagination? Does that mean… the others live too? San: That’s right. […]

I’ve made an important decision regarding the artwork drawn by other artists: I will put the drawings into the making-of book Gaia: sic mundus creatus est instead of the anthology The Complete Gaia. Because of this, Gaia: sic mundus creatus est will also be printed in color instead of black-and-white as initially planned. This will […]

Viviana: I can’t go on… Viviana: I failed… I tried everything… But I failed… Viviana: This is the end… Viviana: … The end.

Viviana: Gaia, please help me! Viviana: Please…

Viviana: Augh! Viviana: I have to make it! Viviana: I have to…

Viviana: Did you see that, Ilias? That’s how it’s done– Viviana: …! Viviana: No! Viviana: No! No! No! No! No! No! No!

I’ve made significant progress regarding the planned comic anthology The Complete Gaia. As you may already know, it will contain the whole comic and the best fanart in two fully colored A4 hardover volumes. It will very likely be published as part of a Kickstarter campaign once the end of the comic is in sight. […]

Viviana: Charge!

In the last years and months, I’ve discovered a couple of independent YouTubers who produce content that is truly exceptional. I’d like to present them in this news entry. All of them are enjoyable for people of all backgrounds and political affiliations. LEMMiNO produces well-researched top-10 lists and documentaries with a focus on popular mysteries […]

Viviana: Dear Gaia! Viviana: Ilias, run! Ilias: I don’t think we can outrun this thing! Ilias: Vivi, that doesn’t look good!

Ilias: I’m sure we’ll see Alissa again soon. Behind the door. Viviana: True. Viviana: Lilith, Ryn, Alissa. I don’t think anything bad happened to them. They just… disappeared. Viviana: San, let’s go! San: I suddenly feel so… strange. Viviana: San, behind you!

Viviana: Alissa! Viviana: Alissa…

https://clips.twitch.tv/AuspiciousPlausibleMagpiePunchTrees I honestly didn’t expect these reactions after the game got a 95% on Metacritic. I guess that shows how much a 10/10 is worth nowadays.

Viviana: I can’t go on! My legs hurt so much! Viviana: Thank you, San. But your spells don’t help much anymore. Alissa: Huh? Alissa: Hey, look at this, guys! Ilias: Are those waves? Ilias: We better get away from here! Viviana: Where should we run to?! Ilias: That’s a good question!

Viviana: ! Ilias: Why did you stop? Viviana: It felt like the plate was caving in… Viviana: I guess it was nothing… Viviana: AAAH! IT BURNS! IT BURNS!! Ilias: Let me see! Ilias: It’s okay, Vivi! Your skin is just a little red. Viviana: This place is truly hell…

Viviana: How far is it now? I’ve lost all sense of time and space. San: I’d say about 30 kilometers. Ilias: Hey, that’s not too bad! Viviana: Yeah. But there’s one thing that bothers me. Ilias: Which is? Viviana: We’ll never be able to walk 50 kilometers in a single day. Heck, my legs are […]

Unfortunately, there will be only one update this week. The one on Friday is cancelled. I’m actually surprised how often we were able to update twice a week this year.

It’s often said that reality isn’t black-and-white, but that there are various shades of gray. But in this conflict, there rather seem to be shades of black.

I’m not sure if we’ll be able to publish two pages this week.

Ryn: HELP!! Alissa: RYN!! Ilias: Ryn…

Ryn: Huh? What was that? San: The platform is falling apart! San: Quick! To the door! San: My flight spells aren’t working!

Viviana: I loved her so much! Ilias: We all did. Ilias: But you heard what Lili said. We must never lose faith in ourselves, or in her. Ilias: We must never forget her words and actions. Because in our words and actions, they will live on. Forever. Viviana: That was beautifully put. Alissa: What do […]

Viviana: Lili! Say something! Viviana: San! Do something! San: I’ll try! But I don’t know many spells that heal the heart and soul… San: Better? Viviana: Doesn’t look like it! Viviana: Try something else! San: Hmm, maybe Gregor’s Salvation of the Soul will help… San: I’m sorry…

Without a doubt, this is the beginning of the endgame. On this ocassion, I have posted a fitting poll in the right sidebar: Who will die? San: The door! Lilith: It’s much further away than it looks like. <tube> But I know a shortcut! Ryn: This place looks rather calm. What’s so bad about it, […]

Lilith: Follow me!
