🕑 Added 2025-07-31 23:00:07 +0000 UTCI've come back to this page several times trying to determine if it's confusing or not, if it's rushing the scene or not. I wanted to show Ethan preparing for his pairing ceremony while an earlier, unseen conversation between him and Malki played through captions. I don't want to cut back and forth between the visuals of the conversation and him dressing - that felt clunky and unnecessary. I also don't think we'd really benefit from seeing Ethan looking wizened for another two pages before he gets back up on the horse, being that we already know he's been struggling.
I don't typically second guess how I play out scenes too much, but I think the (self-imposed) pressure to make sure these final pages are as good as I can make them is probably adding weight, haha. The trials and tribulations of making comics, amirite?! (° v °〃)

Ohh gods, Ethan now knows the truism: (to paraphrase Robert Jordan) Duty is heavier than a mountain, death lighter than feather.
