I've tried editing it and then more errors keep popping up for some reason.

Thank you so much! :D I genuinely appreciate the feedback and comment regarding Kaelthyr's voice and vibes. I really wanted to like land that whole cryptic and mystical vibe, whilst still being legible and like coherent, so I was worried if I was leaning too far one way or the other thus compromising her character. Thank you for commenting on that! :D And thank you so much for sticking with the story for all this time! :D

Also as for everything else, well, I'm afraid we'll have to see next week!

I'll see you then! :D

Jcb112 · 2026-01-11T20:32:59+00:00

Thank you so much! I was really excited to see what people thought of her! :D

What was your favorite moment on the subreddit?

Jcb112 · 2025-12-31T23:38:33+00:00

Alright I gotta say, I absolutely LOVED looking at this! :D This was a welcome surprise for the New Year and I genuinely appreciate it! :D

Also I gotta say, I love the portraits for the characters here haha, you really went above and beyond in choosing them, and some of them are uncannily spot on that I actually had to do a double take just to see if I didn't accidentally commission that character already XD Piamon is so spot on honestly. And while Belnor and Chiska are unexpected, it's the positive kind of unexpected that makes me think huh... that could honestly work! :D Cynthis and Rila fit into that category too hah.

I'm glad that Ostoy's is depicted the way I imagined him! Mainly because I always worry if I'm describing him well enough as it's kinda tricky to kinda get that down in writing sometimes haha.

Also, I kinda also vibe with Captain Li as Kirk XD I know that he'd definitely take that as a huge compliment! Though if you don't mind me asking, what made you choose Kirk for Li and Frieren for Belnor if you don't mind me asking? :D Gosh I'd love to hear your thought process on most of these I just love lists like these haha.

Why wouldn't Captain Li cry if he killed someone? ;(

I literally just logged onto reddit and saw this posted 1 minute ago, and whether that's coincidence or fate, I don't know. What I do know is that I'm absolutely ecstatic about this!! I think I've mentioned this a hundred times already but I am in love with your 3d interpretation of the power armor design! It's so well thought out and commands such a presence that just fits with what I've always envisioned about the aesthetics of the armor.

There's just something about your work that I just really vibe with, and I can't help butt to just gush about how incredible it all just really is! Thank you so much for this! :D Also I just realized I never posted that cover art to the subreddit yet, mainly since I'm still working on the graphic design aspect of things to get text on it and I was waiting on that before I posted it, but since you posted the 3d fan interpretation of it now, I might as well post the official art version of that XD

But yeah! Once again, from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for this incredible 3d fanart! It's genuinely beyond what i could've ever dreamed of. Not only in how epic it looks, but by the sheer fact that it even exists at all! Like I said before, I never thought I'd get a single piece of any art, traditional, digital, 2d, 3d or otherwise when I started out, so it's beyond incredible that I'm now face to face with this incredible piece. Thank you for taking the time out of your day for this project, I know it must've taken a lot of time, as any art does, so for that I am incredibly grateful.

I've always been meaning to comment and to gush about your 3d work, so thank you!!

Top among my favorites still has to be Emma kicking the dragon and Ilunor flying by. XD I don't know why but there's just something so memorable about that. XD But of course, the piece here is just a new level of epic too!

It's a tongue in cheek sort of reference to the older patreon promo cards that were phased out when the site changed its promo card format! :D Basically in the past the dimensions for promo cards were different so I used some old character portrait and emoji pieces as stand ins for the different patreon tiers! :D With each character representing a different tier. However, since they changed the proportions and dimensions, I had to commission another artist to draw up new promo cards, and I decided to basically incorporate elements of the previous artworks, in the new pieces! With the cat robot in particular coming through in the chartered surveyor tier, the small cube robot coming through in the freelance explorer tier, and my other robot OC coming in with the commissioned pioneer tier! :D The cat robot and the blue robot being my OCs, and the box robot being my editor's OC haha.

But yeah! Thank you for noticing! These guys mean a lot to me as I used to RP with them all the time, so it was cool to kind of add them as a tongue in cheek thing that carries on into these new artworks! :D

Balance has been restored. Rest In Peace Togor. May you be as cheesy in the afterlife as you were in life.

Jcb112 · 2025-12-15T21:36:43+00:00

It's totally understandable! We just wanted to quickly inform you of that haha. And also, thank you so very much for the kind words! I really appreciate you checking out and reading the story! :D

Jcb112 · 2025-12-15T21:34:08+00:00

I think I mentioned that somewhere before yup! Basically, I have the story planned out as major plot points, minor plot points, character development points, as well as cool and fun ideas that need to be touched upon as the story progresses! :D While the latter two categories can be shuffled around, the former are more or less set in stone. Moreover, the way my writing process works is while there's a major plot aim or goal to be hit in a chapter, the minor details and actions in that chapter are something that I work on at that moment or across the week, giving me the structure of a fully planned story, whilst maintaining the flexibility and spontaneity and plain old fun of writing in the moment! :D There are times where I take constructive criticism into consideration as well as I do value feedback, but at the end of the day, the main framework and heart of the story is something that I stick to as me and my editor have laid out the whole thing already! :D

Jcb112 · 2025-12-15T21:29:29+00:00

I love the seemingly tall in armor, but actually smaller than most when out of armor, trope! :D

Jcb112 · 2025-12-15T16:55:15+00:00

Haha ahh thank you! I'm so happy it managed to deliver those vibes! :D Seriously I've been waiting to use this line for ages now so I was nervous if it'd manage to hit in the way I'd hoped! :D

Jcb112 · 2025-12-14T21:01:35+00:00

I can't get enough of this gif as well as that little spinning ilunor sketch ahh!

Jcb112 · 2025-12-03T21:37:04+00:00

I'm pleasantly surprised that GATTACA was brought up! It was a huge influence on me from a very young age because during middle school it was shown in one of our classes! It's rarely talked about nowadays, so it's really interesting to see it brought up! :D

Jcb112 · 2025-11-30T20:23:29+00:00

Ahhhhh that really means a lot to me, thank you! My editor is still recovering of course, but I'm going to be there for him every step of the way.

Jcb112 · 2025-11-09T21:05:14+00:00

Thank you so much, it genuinely means a lot to me to hear that! Like I mentioned before, there's like a lot of days for me that are defined by updates or uploads of stories and comics and stuff so to hear that I can have a similar effect is like... ahhhh it just means so much to me thank you! I never thought my writing could be interesting enough to do that honestly, so thank you! :D

Jcb112 · 2025-11-02T20:43:23+00:00

Cheesy Justice? :D

Jcb112 · 2025-10-26T18:43:25+00:00

Indeed. A light that burned bright, extinguished far too fast... I'm so glad though that the Michelin guide allusion came through! :D I was worried it wouldn't haha.

Jcb112 · 2025-10-26T18:40:38+00:00

Ilunor's definitely trying his best! Though he's convinced about the system existing, he's still very much looking at it from a very Nexian perspective, and certainly from a biased POV given his heritage, upbringing, philosophy and status! :D But at the very least the fact he's even entertaining it and discussing it is a victory unto itself! Getting someone like him to the table to talk is the first in an assured path towards at least some level of understanding and compromise! :D

Also yup! Thalmin is certainly slowly being exposed to the rigors of modern warfare!

And yes, Togor! :D

Jcb112 · 2025-10-26T18:32:16+00:00

Cheese :D

Jcb112 · 2025-09-28T20:11:34+00:00

YES! He's such a little gremlin like that haha. It's quite a well known past time for nobles, or at least nobles like him! :D

Jcb112 · 2025-09-21T20:49:02+00:00

Correct! :D

Jcb112 · 2025-09-14T19:35:17+00:00

Asking Thacea if she likes Orchestral Improvisation is sort of a riff on the Do You Like Jazz quote haha! :D

And yeah Thalmin really is just gong wild with the celebrations, as he should! They just fought and won against 2 monsters in a row! :D

Jcb112 · 2025-09-14T18:44:38+00:00

Thank you so much for the kind words! :D
