Thank you for sticking it out if you've been waiting for the conclusion of Chapter Five, and I'm glad you found your way here if you're a new reader! The previous hiatus I went on lasted longer than I thought it would, mostly because I think I may have burnt myself out from working on the comic nonstop for so long. I explored a few more stories and started developing them a bit, along with working on my writing a bit more with a few Roleplays with friends.
However! I'd like to get back to the comic now and finally complete Chapter Five! 5x25 is completed as of now and on Patreon on my $1 tier, and I am currently working on the lineart for 5x26, so things are in progress! I'm hoping to have a small buffer ready by either the end of August or early September depending on how fast I can crank out pages twenty-six to twenty-eight. I'm going to try to get around to the first few pages of Chapter Six too, which may take a while since they're very background/figure heavy.
I might also be changing my update schedule for the time being...mostly to save my sanity. Updates will either be every other week or once a month depending on how busy I get. This year hasn't been the best for me jobwise and I'm trying to find some stable work since my hours have been drastically cut, which means I need to devote time to job searching and potentially a new place of employment if/when that happens.
You can find more art I've been working on in the Preludes Gallery on the site, as I've been developing Maelstrom's history a bit in Roleplays so I've been playing around with some characters from a few decades before the main timeline. Again, thank you so much for sticking around, and I hope you enjoy the conclusion of Chapter Five soon!
