Last week we got to show you more of the world of Tir Aileni. The gorgeous work from Antonio Sfroza which showed The Crow's Call. Now you can see it in all its glory!

This is what I imagine is the look for most of Diwedd. It's been a long day in the fields, a long week that is only going to be followed by another one. A farmer walks up the well-worn paths, or rides their favorite nag. They pass the stone and wooden walls marking the farm lands, until there it is.

The Crow's Call.

Fires are already raging, and dinner is on the stove. Brynn Greenway is sitting behind the bar with your favorite drink, and your chair is waiting. Come and sit for a while, and let the cares of the world melt away for a while.

But wait! There's more!

What we've been working on for a long while is the world of Tir Aileni. The continent that we've been talking about for so very long. It is the continent of Dannisfire, and Sanctaidd. Fiora, the Gallantine Empire, and so much more. And now...it comes alive.

Many, many thanks to Paul Simic for helping bring this continent to life. Many of these cities, towns, and kingdoms will be showing up in The Shattered Wing, and I love being able to bring it to you now visually.

We will be bringing The Shattered Wing to Kickstarter January 12th. Do not miss out, check out our pre-launch page and make sure you get notified when we launch.

State of the Inkdustries

Legends of the Realm - The Shania comic has been inked! We are now moving onto colors for both that comic and the one-shot for Sanctaidd.

The Innkeeper's Dirge - Managed to write four out of five days this week, so I am currently on track to get book three done even faster than I had hoped. We are bringing every part of the series to life!

The Lore Corner

Daenis, the Unbeliever

Daenis is the easiest of the Fiorae to explain. A Gallantine born, he has spent decades in the faith, studying thousands of years of tomes and texts to better understand and serve the Empire and Gallantil. An Owl of little renown, in a small corner of the Empire, content with a life of study and supporting the real fighters in the world.

But now he is far from home. Following and teaching a young Sparrow named Caitlin, even stopping by her childhood home. On a quest that neither will explain, or perhaps fully comprehend themselves. Why risk everything for this quest?

And why is a man of faith now known as the Unbeliever?
