Hi everyone! I'm really excited to make my debut here on Tapas and especially with my first longer comic! o v o
I'm still trying to figure out my way when it comes to the use of soundwords, paneling and especially greyscale tones, so please have mercy on my (hopefully) growing skills! ; v ;
This story has stuck with me for more than a decade now and I'm happy that I'm finally comfortable enough with its plot, characters and the world building to emerge on this journey in comic form.
It's mostly a project I want to draw for myself, but if I can make at least one person happy while they are traveling alongside Xerxes, it's more than I can hope for. <3

To us, nightmares are something ordinary. They might not be pleasant, but we can handle them. But what would happen if those nightmares that are haunting you are not only influenced by your past, but also by a wicked creature pursuing its own desires? What if this creature took everything from you and your loved ones? And saw you only as its tool? And presented to you the worst possible version of your past in your dreams, every night, to torture you and darken your heart? What if you couldn't defend yourself, because the creature is always with you - as it's made its home inside of you?
That's the situation Xerxes has been living with for way too long now. The "thing" inside him gifts him a look on all the tremendous pain and loss it has caused him - every single night. Nobody has heard of such a creature ever before, therefore, even years later, Xerxes is on his own to find a cure which will set him free of this dark creature lurking inside of his heart.
With this comic I want to tell his story. If you're expecting an epic journey with a kindhearted hero saving the world, you can kindly scroll past, for this might be no story for you. Because sometimes, the biggest problems that need to be solved are wholly personal. :)
