Nicely done with the juxtaposed thoughts on either side as he weighs his experiences. Hoping he gets moving quickly to try to catch up. After all, he knows which direction they’re heading in. Perhaps a little bit of redemption is on the horizon. Also, we wonder what has made Aya such a loner. It does seem a bit forced; as if she wants to be friends and would like company, but just can’t let her guard down for that to happen. Maybe we will get her backstory, too.

That ass has a wicked look in his eye. Don’t go into the hut!

Someone get this lad some bandages and a hot tea. The filly in the last scene is drawn so nicely. Her facial expressions make her and everyone else appear to be sincere in their desire to help.

@JLMTIK, when I went to upload it, my heart broke for my poor baby. There was definitely a time as I was drawing it when I may have shed a few tears, too. It's funny that it's a old joke around the comic community that creators enjoy the suffering of their characters, but I always feel terrible for them.

@Bishyantir: ❤️ The truth is, we all have our own backstories, flooded with the seas of regret, remorse, and rejuvenation. As an artist, you have a unique ability to be able to relate these myriad of experiences through the characters you breathe life into. And it is through these moments of great strife or great joy that we the audience can develop the thread of familiarity with them. Looking forward to what is to come with these adventurers!

The evening lighting is very nice. Aya is sporting the flower she picked in a previous episode. It makes us feel as though even with things changing, she still has a positive outlook for what lies for them once they get over the border. She seems hopeful.

Every time we read it…Melody’s “mip” is so sad!

It’s going to be tough for them. Fingers crossed she changes her mind.

We are still hoping the three of them will become friends and fight for good, together. Really love the reflection of Aya and Durran in his eye, as they walk away.
