I love my life... I love my life... I love my life

They are indeed incredibly rare, and have been a signifying mark of the Salia bloodline dating back to the city's first remaining records. A couple members of the Salian family have claimed they possess special "powers" of some sort (but have not been able to back up these claims), and in one famous incident, a Salian Trademaster was ambushed (at great cost), and one of his eyes was cut out to be taken as a prize. The (very short-lived) sect had a generous amount of mystics and alchemists, but were apparently unable to find anything special about the eye aside from its iris color. And it most certainly did not, as they had hoped, grant them power over the Trademaster that it was removed from.
(I get the feeling about 50% of all the info about the comic's setting is here scattered as replies to questions in the comment sections)

After catching up on the whole comic and then viewing your gallery, I notice a distinct lack of something:
Kass, as a female Yinglet of course, in an outfit that Yinglets would consider sexy, looking uncomfortable. :D
-
Actually I'm wondering if the Matriarch is wearing that outfit just for the Trademaster and her public appearance among humans, or if other Yinglets find that appealing. I'm guessing we'll find out. ;)

Haha, a lot of the males would go crazy at the sight of a female in a simple chest wrap and loincloth!
Then again, this was while Kass was among friends, and still too shocked from the sudden change in biology to feel exposed by semi-revealing underwear. Hell, with the layer of fur, he has felt like he's been wearing something the whole time~
I'll remember this idea, though...

Hey cell shading! And thick outside lines, all kinds of style changes. It looks good, like the guy above me said it looks a lot brighter. Can I suggest still throwing in that old dark gradient on the background? The large swaths of grey look a little flat.
"Wait what" "What just happened?" XD

Yeah, I kinda noticed that too; I had a light gradient there, but pushed up the opacity while making an edit; it definitely looks nicer. Hit F5 and take a look.
Anyway, I felt it was about time to tighten up a few things, which is partially why I posted that shading comparison piece before this. Glad I did! I really do think cel-shading fits the rest of the comic's style better.

And thus ends the prologue. Awesome. :)
And my prediction came true! Kindasorta. He was drafted and is going to have to report to the people in charge of House Ivenmoth, at least. I was wrong about what she was drafted to DO, though presumably he'll want to know if she learns anything about her transformation.
Does this mean, though, that she's no longer a probationary member of the House? The head honcho didn't say so specifically, but a being diplomat and go-between is hardly something you'd want to leave up to someone who's not really a part of your organization.

Aye, Kass got that promotion he wanted so much, though it had more to do with random circumstance rather than all the hard work he'd put in over the years! Which is how most promotions go, I think.
The Invenmoth tailors will have to design the first mini-sized redcloak.
And we're just about at the prologue's end, but there's a page or two left! Gotta tie up a few things.

Nope! Here's a brief summary:
-Oh why this is all quite nice indeed, isn't it? Lovely weather for making decisions on behalf of all the peasants, yes, quite.
-Indeed! Why just yesterday a thing happened and it was all so very tiresome; you know how such things go, ho ho.

There's many places - even many in the supposedly-free United States - where railroading is still considered the right and proper way of things.
Retail management, for example. Your employees think they have a choice in the matter? Ha! Write them up, and oh, was that the third write-up in the month? Too bad, you're fired and we're all sooo sad to see you go.

So, a couple of friends and I had some fun with the last frame: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u.....kass-error.png
I see that you've made changes to your comic, but I don see the reason to state my opinion on them 'cause at this point it won't matter. However, I will say I like the white outlines for the panels; it looks more akin to traditional comics. The shading I'm not a big fan about; it feels like a big change from what you were doing before. That's all I'll say.
So, Viracroix reveals how he knew Kass was the yinglet. Gee, do I feel dumb. I didn't figure the three yinglets recognized House Ivenmoth's color and logo. When I really think about, how could they not? House Ivenmoth is like the founding father of the town. Their banner hangs off the side of one of the teeth for crying out loud. In my defense, I don't know how integrated the yinglet and human societies are or how educated the yinglets are about the latter. In fact, I don't know much about yinglet society at all, but I'm sure I will…

Once again I am voicing my appreciation for your depiction of Vizlet's grace and interpersonal savvy, as only the merest blip of "WHAT IS THIS BULLSHIT YOU ARE PILING ON ME NOW VIRACROIX DO YOU THINK I'M NOT BUSY ENOUGH" slips through before she slides back into the well-greased track of Politics. The contrast between this and Lopin's handoff really brings out Kass's character, as he needs considerably more time to work through both his reluctance and the wtf factor, even though he then makes it clear that he does have enough experience to know the tune to this song and can sing along, if not precisely in key.
Missed the edit window addendum: Frankly, I wonder how much research Viracroix managed to do in the limited time since the Zat Zhing event, because it seems sheerest luck that the person he promoted to officer and diplomat on the basis of an OSHA violation actually had the education, leadership skills, and general moxie to do the job.
