Happy Valentine's Day! ⸜(˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡
Hope you like the special illustration under the comic page.
Ufff, not my favourite page to draw so far. Right now, I’m experimenting with different lineart styles and brushes. (˶˃⤙˂˶)
So if things look a little different (again) in future pages, that’s just me still figuring it out.
Also, I’m not a native speaker, so apologies for any mistakes.
(And yes, Stephen is meant to sound like he learned how to talk from a book. He’s not exactly a social person.)

Nice - the light turning off at the end is perfect.
Stephen's slightly formal speech just sounds familiar to me 😅
I guess I'm autistic and a lot of my friends are too - both me and my flatmate frequently use older phrases and formal speech on occasion

Enthorned
802 views78 subscribers
A folk-fantasy comic with a touch of romance.
A witch named Maeve lives stuck in her past. She crosses paths with a man who couldn’t be more different from her. Together they end up facing a growing eldritch evil that puts their whole world at risk. In the end, it might be their differences that turn out to be their greatest strength.
Enthorned is a great read for those who enjoy(ed) Labyrinth, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, fey-touched or eldritch-blasted D&D, Celtic folklore and all things fey.
