You know Patch, I've been curious about something for a while now. How hard is to write the dialogue for this series?
It seems easy for characters like Hiker cause they were human, but it has to be a pain keeping the dialect consistent for all the characters who were born dragons, right? I have trouble reading it sometimes, so I can't even imagine how much of a headache it is to write.

Its kinda a pain in the ass, I love doing it but keeping things consistent is an absolute pain in the ass.
As each character has their own little phonetic, grammatical, or semantic differences brought from the lore of how they grew up in different regions that have developed very regional dialects. On top of that over the years I've been fiddling with them ever so slightly to help make them easier to read for folks as of course they can be difficult to read.
So there are times, weeks after writing a comic where I read back through to check on past events to link to future ones. While reading those pages I often find little errors in their dialects and they drive me nuts!
So yes it is a bit of a headache to keep all these different little dialects consistent in my head, on my notes, etc. while also trying to make them easier for readers to understand, while also doing all of that over the course of 1-5 years depending on the dialect and when it was introduced.
But I enjoy it, I find it to be a very important part of the setting, and so I will continue to do so. Its a headache I love

Damn... Well, you've got far more mental fortitude than I do. I used write little fanfics in my spare time and stopped after a while cause it just got too hard to keep track of this stuff for me.
You definitively have all the marks of a good story teller, Patch.

New fav page :D
Rara speaks with a French accent, am I right?
Feels like the level of drawing on this page is much better than the previous one, the lighting and poses are nicer, and the style seems to have changed a bit.
I am very glad that the comic is improving not only in terms of plot but also visually <3
(once again I apologize if something is not clear, the translator sometimes conveys the wrong idea)

Well sort of! She speaks Québécois french as a first language. But she learned English from the Bades she lives with more or less
And yeah! I changed my proportion bases around, every month or so I make a new proportion base for the comic which can change some things. But really while I try to draw each page to the best, some panels are harder than others.
