Gaia

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!

Viviana: Can’t I use it at least a teeny wee bit? Lilith: Have faith! Lilith: Grab your hands!

This weekend, I spent a lot of time working on The Complete Gaia. Apart from technical work on the page layout and fixing artwork errors in over a dozen pages, I also wrote parts of the supplementary material. The anthology will contain at least the following text sections: Introduction to Gaia, its history and development […]

Here’s my review of Final Fantasy VII Remake. Alissa: What do you mean? Ilias: Now that you mention it… Lilith: It feels like we’re walking on the ceiling; held up by an artificial gravity that only exists in our minds. If you get what I mean… Viviana: Uh-oh. Lilith: No! Don’t use your crystal!

If you’re still undecided about getting Final Fantasy VII Remake, here’s my own review of it. Characters ✔✔ The strongest aspect of the game! They nailed the personality of all the characters! Cloud, Tifa, Aeris, Barret & Co. behaved just like in the original game. Moreover, the increased playing time gave more room for personal […]

Here’s my review of Final Fantasy VII Remake. Ryn: Which door? Lilith: The one with the symbol. It’s the sign of Isaac’s assistant, Tibor the Third. Lilith: Thank you for everything, Kilian. We’re going now. Lilith: Ilias, you can leave your broken sword here. Alissa: Huh? Alissa: What was that? Lilith: Just another blueshift. Lilith: […]

Viviana: Lili, I don’t know if you heard it. But Kilian would like to leave Vis. Can you teleport him? Lilith: Only in an emergency. Lilith: I’ve already cast several powerful spells to protect us from the ghosts. I don’t want to overexert myself. Kilian: I understand. Alissa: So, how do we get to the […]

Ilias: You’ve released the ghosts from their suffering! Kilian: A miracle! Viviana: Can you send us to the Source in the same way? Lilith: Not as long as your soul is connected to your body.

Viviana: … Lilith: Please follow me. But at a safe distance. Kilian: Uhm, that’s not the way to the Source! Viviana: Lili, stay away from those monsters! Lilith: Calm down, ghosts. I haven’t come to disturb your peace. I’ve come to give you what you long for. Lilith: My soul has already returned to Gaia. […]

Viviana: Those ghosts, what are they? Kilian: Manifestations of broken souls who’ve been blocked from returning to the Source. Now they linger in Vis until they slowly fade away. San: Why do the reports from Vis we have differ so much from its real state? Kilian: There’s nothing wrong with those reports, presumably. Kilian: Did […]

Kilian: Why do you want to go to the Source anyway? There’s nothing interesting there as far as I know. Ilias: We believe that a powerful crystal sphere is located there. Viviana: We absolutely must find it before a wizard called Eldor gets it in his hands. Kilian: I see. Viviana: What does the book […]

There will be only one update next week. I need more time to work on the script for the rest of the chapter.

Sorry for posting the new page a day late.

Viviana: Oh crap!

Viviana: Where’s Alissa?! Alissa: Help! Alissa: Hhhf!

Viviana: Uh oh… Ilias: Ahhh! Lilith: Gotcha!

Ryn: I can’t see anything. Lilith: The waves in the Bluestream create strange patterns, but I’ve already seen similar ones in the Forbidden Corridor. San: It’s all quiet back here! Ilias: Let’s move on. But slowly! Viviana: Wait!

Lilith: We… need to move on! Ryn: There’s daylight ahead! Just a kilometer or two and we’re out! Alissa: Hmm… Alissa: Guys, wait a second! I have a strange feeling. As if there was something wrong with this cave. Ilias: Yes, it’s true. I’m feeling it too! Ryn: A trap?! Alissa: Likely. Ilias: Do you […]

Sorry, for posting this page a day late. I have to say that not much happening in it anyway, but it’s needed to set up the action starting in the next page. Ilias: What makes you think that? It just looks like a crystal cave to me. San: All three adventurers who claimed to have […]

Viviana: Oof. Viviana: Why are you doing this?! I thought we were friends! Best friends! Lilith: Just look around, Vivi. Viviana: What do you–? Ohh… Viviana: You sneaky little witch! Lilith: Magic is my passion, deceit my weapon. Ryn: Where are we? Lilith: I’m not sure… San: This must be Vis. San: The gateway to […]
