While I am working on my comic, I am going to update the novel to reflect the new ideas I had. These are way more cohesive and work better. I don't think a lot of it changes but some bigger details do. Thanks for your patience and once I move and everything settles down (I hope), I'll be working on my comic again.
Dear everyone: I would like to apologize again for the lack of...everything. I have decided it's best not to force myself into being creative or thinking too hard about things because it's starting to physically hurt and my art was always something I could look too for relief, not pain. That's not to say I'm not doing anything at all, though. Since the visuals and the overarching theme of Descendant has changed, I find myself diving and studying horror tropes I never would have considered until now and some of this is actually very complicated. Especially anything dealing with cosmic entities: it can be very difficult to describe in words as well as make it compelling for an audience. The fun thing about the cosmic horror, however, is that "i don't know" is an acceptable answer to a strange situation a character may face.
As well as story issues, I find myself struggling to find a style I like to finish my pages: do I want to color, grayscale painting, toning? I've always intended the first part of Descendant to look like tin-type photography as it's set in the 1800's but I still have to finish it before I can apply those textures. Seems a lot of webtoons are colored but I know we don't necessarily have to comply with that.
Anyway, I really hope to have something for you soon. Thank you for your patience and...I'd tell you to follow me on twitter but...politics. :/

Taking care of yourself is the most important thing!
Thank you for the update! Best of luck as you work on making Descendant what you want :3 And yes, as Penniewrites says, do take care of yourself!
We'll be there when you figure it all out, and if you need anything just ask! Take care <3
Dear Descendant readers: I will be going through the novel and changing A LOT. I was hit with some better, more coherent ideas and I gotta change it. This will be the final change, though and I hope to get it illustrated in the comic version.
I'm also still in a weird slump from all the stress and lack of sleep...plus all these weird schedules and kids and...ugh. Thank you for your patience.

Heya Descendant subs: I have the first episode inked. Just deciding on how to finish it. Screentones or greyscale paint/black and white ink. So many options to choose from, you know? As soon as it is done, I'll get it scheduled. I'm sorry the deadline is so long but, again...doing this alone is hard work and I'm starting out. Trying to do a good job. Anyway, thanks for the patience!
You're doing great!
So I was trying to settle on a deadline for myself trying to be sensitive to the fact that: I want my audience to not have to wait too long but also give myself enough time to finish my thoughts/scenes.
I think 2-weeks is fair so far. This can change in the future the more traction (lord willing) it gets. We are doing really well, though! 13 subs in just a few days. :>
