I went hard on the trees in the first panel; I'm so sick of drawing battle damage and the interior of the shrine :U I long for pretty nature backgrounds!Unlike Duane who obsesses over his past, Quigley doesn't like to look at it at all. This translates into us - over the years of the comic -...

Originally in the penultimate panel Keon begged: "Please just kill me!" but I thought it a bit much. Still, as an agent of the state he knows the fate of people who have done what he's done. Even with an "enlightened" queen on the throne.We're in the thick of the finale now, ...

16_111&112

Two pages today! A fitting conclusion.I am verklempt, patrons. 2021 is ending in the most appropriate way by having me put my fifteen year old dog Carter to sleep tomorrow afternoon. She is pretty old and not feeling well and it is time. She served as a frequent model for Pantoffel, and I feel like ...

Hetr isn't going to be satisfied unless Toma begs for his life - or the Queen's. It's not fun to just gank him!

16_109

The true protagonist is here, and this is the greatest day of his life.I'm going to take Friday off for Christmas if that's okay with you, bosses! Come hang out in Discord with me, we'll eat panettone and talk about dogs and cute people - https://discord.gg/jFeGeZT - tomorrow I'm goi...

Elka and Toma are frankly too busy flirting to pay any attention to Quigley's persistent gloom.

16_107

I must go. My planet needs me.Everyone is going to be so enraged on Monday when it cuts to the Peaceguard one last time, haha~

16_105&106

Two pages today! Didn't wanna split these up in the middle of a fireball, seemed rude.

16_104

Now we're at the climax and I'm in particular agony only posting a page at a time, haha. I think I'll double up next week and do two on Monday, one on Friday!Ricker! You are a screw-up, Ricker! Do you know what happens to middle manager villains who screw up in fantasy stories, Ricker? N...

Duane Adelier back in action.

16_102

In Quigley's defense, he wants to go get Matty and Uaid. It's not like he's trying to tip-toe off to Hooters for a plate of wings.

16_101

Wholesome!Man, see that floaty waterbaby? I could NOT find the original working file for her so I had to use the web res, and she's all pixellated like a Japanese goodie-box. I'll have to redraw her for print. Vexing!

16_100

"I'm sorry" are the cheapest words in the English language and Duane respects language too much to use them. Calling out his own weakness for cleaving to ideas he's *always* known were wrong, and then swearing to find God; find himself; find truth; is what a real apology sounds like ...

16_99

Duane's entrance looks ominous as frick in the last panel, but he had a pretty unfortunate time underwater, if you'll recall. Let's see if all that was for the better, or the worse.

16_98

When last we saw Sette she was begging Duane to go help Sara and Siya. He disappeared in seeming compliance, leaving Sette to chase after...

16_97

Keon finally opens up, and I don't think he says anything too surprising. He's cynical but flexible, and that flexibility may let him live to see the morrow...I'm going to skip Wednesday for Thanksgiving. I bought butter shaped like a turkey! It's going to be the best Thanksgiving ev...

16_96

Judging from that last panel the cavalry may have at last arrived. Lemuel better scoot.

16_95

I, too, would probably throw up after unexpectedly meeting my brother's corpse after seven years.

16_94

Jivi is very brave, but maybe should stay with the giant walking pymary-proof mecha rather than go unarmed into a battlefield with his puny kid self. At least Hetr and Ricker are having fun.

16_89-93

Five pages today. I've uploaded the typical highres print versions for ya but I much prefer the layout on the website. The long sink into blackness as Duane resigns himself to Hell. Update starts here - https://www.casualvillain.com/Unsounded/comic/ch16/ch16_89.htmlI promise things start looking...

16_88

No one else could have so immediately gotten him back on his feet. But there's nothing good down there~

Loathe you, in fact~

Hello new patrons (and old friends!) Welcome aboard, and make sure you check out the extra_art tag <3

16_87

Time to make a decision, Duane. Lemuel's presented a very clear, very final option~

16_86

Where's the lie though?

16_85

Duane's brain connected his present request with another time he felt completely abandoned and terrified - the beginning of his marriage and Mikaila's arrival. He had mad ideas of riding off adventuring with Lem then too, but of course that was just a daydream when he felt too in over his he...

16_84

Lotta meat on this page. Lemuel sums up pretty much what we found out at the end of last chapter about the Queen's plot at the shrine, but the idea of an attack against her today is intriguing. That might be difficult now when uh, everyone got asploded. They *really* should have held off on inva...

16_83

Duane is being intentionally abstruse, and Lemuel ain't gettin' it, but then Duane doesn't want him to get it and doesn't want to get it himself. So let's go back to talking about War! War's safe!This scene was exceptionally difficult to lay out. Had to rely on everything but...

16_82

This is a scene where I really wish we had audio. Duane's laugh must sound like the saddest noise in the world.But Lemuel just wasn't thinking. His heart wanted DUANE; not the monster that his more rational mind knew Duane had become. Lem's not one for Best Worlds though. He'll deal ...

16_79-81

Doing three new pages today. There are some, I think, worthwhile effects if you view them on the site - https://www.casualvillain.com/Unsounded/comic/ch16/ch16_79.html I'd used the shaky effect earlier but it really looks a lot better with the art split up into planes and manipulated individuall...
