I forgot to share this image with you guys here on Patreon. I posted it on the last RR chapter =)
It's a little early, since we haven't really met her yet, but I was excited and wanted you to see it!

2022-03-01 12:31:44 +0000 UTC View PostFresh hums as she works, spinning a metal cylinder around inside of another bigger one, in order to let the grooves in the metal lock into place with each other.
She’s setting up the big telescope, upstairs on top of the tower.

2022-02-28 16:49:28 +0000 UTC View PostFresh pops her head out of the hole in the ceiling, looking around the city.
She stops, a dozen pairs of eyes looking her way from all around herself. Slowly, Fresh’s eyes wander to the birds that have nested themselves on top of their roof. She yelps, ducking back down as the ...
2022-02-27 18:59:59 +0000 UTC View PostOne-two-three.
Hineni moves to the left with his left foot, his right foot following after. One-two-three. Then he steps back, his other foot following after. He moves back again towards the right as they move around in a square, always practicing the same movements of the slow w...

“Oh, don’t make such a fuss about it,” replies the priestess, shuffling past Jubilee. “I just want to make something.”
Jubilee raises an eyebrow. “It’s my tur...
2022-02-26 14:08:45 +0000 UTC View PostFresh sits at the edge of the cut-off space, the glow of the entrance to the farm washing over her face as she sits there and stares at it. Lifting a hand, she pokes her finger into the mist.
It just feels kind of cold, honestly. Well, no, not even cold. It’s just like walking ...
2022-02-25 15:02:03 +0000 UTC View PostFresh slides the tarot card out of the stack, setting it carefully down onto the spot it belongs at on the table. She stares at the card’s back for a moment, before lifting her eyes towards the customer.
“Are you sure?” she asks. “It could be bad.”
They nod in retu...
Today is the day.
Hineni sits on the foot of their bed, staring down at the well-trodden boards which lead up towards his place of rest. As his foot taps against the boards, he wonders, how many feet have walked this way? How many people have sat where he now sits? He’s a ...
It’s hard to say whether the day is beautiful today or not.
Fresh lays on her back, feeling the soft grass moving beneath herself as it sways, together with loose strands of her hair in the gentle breeze of a new morning.
Her head is still aching and sore, but ...
2022-02-23 11:44:13 +0000 UTC View Post“Delivery is all set up,” says Jubilee, coming back inside of the house.
Basil looks up from the counter, looking over towards them. “That was fast.”
“They’re all business,” replies Jubilee, shaking their head. They had been outside at the orichalcu...
2022-02-22 19:56:53 +0000 UTC View PostSo many days have come to pass and not one was like any of the others. Every morning when they get up to have breakfast, like on every other day, the smell of the air, the taste of their food, the directions of their conversations and morning games are always different. The push of the breeze, th...
2022-02-21 09:17:11 +0000 UTC View PostSunlight shines in through the hole in the ceiling. Fresh has opened up the retractable, sliding covering to let in the glow of the outside world. She squints, covering her eyes with her hand for a moment as the unexpectedly bright light of the morning sun blasts through the shield and straight d...
2022-02-20 11:12:18 +0000 UTC View PostThe air in the corridor feels much thicker, much heavier than it did only a moment ago.
The dust particulate, drifting through the dark, stone corridor with no windows feels like it is coming together all by itself to fill the space between the two of them with something, now tha...
2022-02-19 17:46:25 +0000 UTC View PostVoices surround her as she sits outside on the bench, watching groups of people walk by in all directions.
It’s late in the morning and Fresh is out in the city by herself, having gone on a grocery run. But during her way, while looking for a new baker to try out, she got lost....
2022-02-19 10:21:03 +0000 UTC View PostNow, this wasn’t really the original intent for the space, but it seems to be an efficient use of it nonetheless.
It is late at night and Fresh is building the telescope platform for their upstairs area. Given that the space upstairs is essentially two stories high, the constru...
2022-02-18 10:31:35 +0000 UTC View Post“None of the stuff has really been helping,” says the red-wizard, sitting at their library table.
Fresh sits on the other side of it, doing her best to calmly sip a cup of tea that Basil has made for her. It’s a simple fruit tea, but the priestess had brewed it to be extra ...
2022-02-17 11:12:43 +0000 UTC View Post“Put it over there,” says Hineni, pointing towards the side of the restaurant seating area, to the empty space between the front desk and the adjacent wall. The man nods, waving over his two employees, a pair of orcs, who come inside carrying a large cabinet. It’s an equipment stand, for ad...
2022-02-16 19:33:46 +0000 UTC View Post“Hey,” says Fresh, staring at her reflection down in the water of the mineral bath. “Thanks for helping me last night,” she says. “That was a really bad dream.”
“Right?” asks her reflection, shrugging. The girl in the water drifts around, floating upside down. “...
2022-02-16 07:10:51 +0000 UTC View PostIt’s raining outside. So heavily in fact, that it almost sounds like she’s underwater.
Fresh exhales, watching her breath visibly leave her body, as she lays in her old, unmade bed all by herself.
It’s cold in the room, like it always is and the several lay...
2022-02-15 10:43:43 +0000 UTC View PostRain continues to fall outside, but that isn’t really a big issue for the four of them as they’re heading into the dungeon.
After Fresh’s demonstration of her cursed dagger the other day, they had gotten to a significant depth in the dungeon, as she can essentially just cas...
2022-02-14 06:55:29 +0000 UTC View Post“So what kind of stuff are we looking for, Jubilee?” asks Fresh, wandering after Jubilee as they go down another street that is perhaps somewhat shadier than the last one that they were just in. It’s not as dramatically shady as the red-light district in the east, but it’s still, by the s...
2022-02-13 12:54:04 +0000 UTC View PostRinging hammers strike away, their calls bouncing around the house together with the buzzing of many saws. Carpenters are at work, running around and inspecting every joist, joint and jutting beam of the house, replacing those that are misaligned or wrong.
“Over there,” says ...
2022-02-12 19:47:00 +0000 UTC View PostThe rebuilt guild is slowly starting to take shape and form again. However, money, time and resources are still limited. As such, priorities have to be set in what operations should be re-opened first.
What do you think?
2022-02-12 08:52:15 +0000 UTC View PostFresh stands outside on the marketplace, staring into the window of the odd store that she’s never seen before.
A few people are running around inside of it, running the day to day.
Bending down, she looks at the products on display. There are some medicines, m...
2022-02-12 06:15:38 +0000 UTC View Post“Pat-a-cake! Pat-a-cake! Baker’s man! Bake me a cake as fast as you can~!” chants Fresh, bouncing up and down in the kitchen behind Jubilee. They push her to the side, waving her off with a hand as they go to where she was just standing, bending down to grab a baking form.

2022-02-11 17:41:17 +0000 UTC View PostSoft starlight shines in through the dusty windows of the library. Despite their best efforts to keep the house free of pollen and particulate, it seems to be an impossible task to master. Even with the magical feather-duster that they use on a daily basis, by the same time tomorrow, it’s as if...

He lowers his gaze, looking at the soft tufts of hair that are beneath him, coming f...
2022-02-09 19:53:49 +0000 UTC View PostRain strikes noisily against the stones, the sound of thousands of small strikes coming to Fresh’s ears to remind her that such a thing could exist.
- Rain.
She stares out of the window, wondering how it could possibly be raining?

2022-02-09 17:07:38 +0000 UTC View PostTrust.
Trust is a strange thing. The sureness of it, the absolute certainty that the thing you hold to be true is exactly that. That the faith held in another person is so strong, that you’re sure that you can see into the future, that you know exactly what they’re going to d...
2022-02-08 08:45:16 +0000 UTC View PostThe feathers bends, its soft form giving way to the pressure of the warm wind that leaves Fresh’s lips. Its body sways from side to side, the bristles of its single strands splaying and coming apart along the edges.
She watches it, watching as it slowly rises back up between he...
