I know I said this would be done next weekend, but I decided to work on it all this weekend instead. It was actually a nice quiet weekend around the house. First one of those in a long while. I enjoyed taking my time on the page instead of feeling like I was under a deadline. Anyway, hope you enjoy it!
Aaaaand the grammar police strike! In the last panel, the first word balloon needs an “r” and a comma, “She is no murderer, child.”
I am enjoying the story and the art very much. Thank you for sharing with us. Happy New Year.
Loving the sense of motion in most panels, and the environmental effects — it seems moonlight and wispy fog go well with an action scene… And the lighting does neat things with their eyes in the last panel. Fiet’s look clearly-inhuman by moonlight, while Maeye’s show the same effect, but not to an inhuman degree.
The local belief is reincarnation, so even cursing by “the nine hells” looks foreign. Definitely an imported vampire, rather than some new jest of Fer’oga.
At the end, the way the staff hurts her, my first thought is her being a summon — but what vampiric summon rejects blood for being the energy-laced stuff of a summon?
On the edge of my seat here, and very much looking forward to Fiet’s explanation 😀
Okay, seems to me this mystery girl isn’t afraid of ‘dying’, but of being sent back to where she came from (which may or may not be the same place as her home, may simply be the place where the real villain ‘stores’ her)

Oh yea – moved the holiday images to the Holidays Gallery (top menus under Galleries).
Maeye looks sexy as hell in that last render, me thinks.

Ohhh boy…

Hah! I suspected that flourescent green blood would not sit well in her stomach.
Yea…that’s not tasty looking stuff.
Okay, there goes that theory that it was Bekha behind the blood-snacking… or does it! o_O 😛
Bekha is innocent of all bloodsucking activities.
Noted that you never mentioned innocence about being behind the forced bloodsucking from the currently-unnamed blood-drinker 😛

Bingo!
Yeah, that’s why I thought “summon” — as if she gets unsummoned when “killed”.
If she runs out of energy, then she gets unsummoned and goes back to wherever she came from.
Ooo, did Fiet manage to ‘tune in’ to the girl when she got bit? Or does he know about her kind and just needed to see her to be able to identify her?
You are right on this week! 🙂
Can’t wait to find out what got right 😛
Okay, so she ‘tunes in’ to whomever is ‘sucking out her essence’ 😀
Sucking on her or she’s sucking on them…whatever. 😀
