Here we have a couple of forest spirits casually playing catch with each other, not in the least intimidated by the big, eerie demon thing napping not too far off from them. And why would they be? While he may be creepy and intimidating, Epitaphe is essentially harmless even if some of his interactions are...questionable. Unfortunately, a missed catch lands the two spirits' only ball right into the belly of the beast. Literally. They reeeeeally want their ball back, but climbing into an energy-draining chamber that might as well be a giant mouth would have anyone second-guessing themselves!

Soooo this is part one of two, and the comic was inspired by this scene in Ori and the Blind Forest: https://youtu.be/xhP2rOuT7Lk?t=74 , in case you're wondering. This was a comic commission I got from  piromane !
