Chapter 11 Page 2 begins with Vivienne and Jassart leaving the Harp & Trumpet after listening to the story told in the vignette A Berry from the Sun. Those of you who recognized the bird mask from Chapter 2, give yourselves gold stars! Jassart gets one too.

The rest of the chapter focuses on Blaise. To see what’s befallen him a week early, please vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics.

Some news this week. Otakon is rapidly approaching. Six members of Reverie Comics will be attending. We are planning a special challenge for everyone. I’ll tell you more about it soon when we have the final pieces finalized. Also, I got word from Print Ninja that Volume 2 is printed and is in the process of being shipped. I’ll be doing an update to the Kickstarter campaign tomorrow.

And we are back from hiatus! It’s been a bit longer on the return than I anticipated. Naty is doing much better. Thank you all for sending the well wishes. She greatly appreciates them. She’s ready to continue her excellent work coloring this chapter.

Today’s update is Page 1 of Chapter 11. In this chapter, we will meet another power in the colonial wilderness of Everique — the Liranequois nation. This required a lot of research to get right. For this cover, Julie drew a lot of inspiration from George Catlin’s Snowshoe Dance at the First Snowfall. This classic piece was painted in 1841 and is on display at the Smithsonian.

Also, Kristina Badhand has agreed to illustrate the vignette for Chapter 11. She is the artist for the comic Kaui as well as the Managing Editor for Native Realties Press. I’m pleased to have her as part of the team and I’m looking forward to seeing what she does with the next vignette.

Plays-in-Waves hides the spirit mask in the depths on Page 10 of A Berry from the Sun. This concludes our vignette. My thanks to Cari Corene for a magnificent job on the art.

I need to take a brief hiatus as I prepare for Chapter 11 and get Volume 2 prepped for printing. I’m planning on returning June 22. Until then, I’m going to do periodic updates showing some of the new character designs. To see a preview of another of the new characters, please vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics.

Cari’s Kickstarter for Floral Frolic continues. Only 6 days in and they’re 83% of the way there. Go Cari go!

The firebird is trapped inside the earth on Page 9 of A Berry from the Sun. The plan of Eyes-like-Night worked and the corrupted manitou has withered away. We’re rapidly reaching the conclusion of this vignette. Chapter 11 is on the horizon. We’ll be meeting several new characters in Chapter 11. See one of them for yourself when you vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics.

If you’ve enjoyed the artwork for this vignette, Cari Corene and Amanda Coronado are running a Kickstarter campaign for her new book Floral Frolic. It’s amazingly adorable. Check it out! It’s a Kickstarter Staff Pick.

The manitou trap the firebird beneath the cape on Page 8 of A Berry from the Sun. Whether or not they can hold him, is another story. If you’d like to see Cari’s sketch for this page, vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics. it’s a neat insight into her process.

Reverie Comics will be at AwesomeCon in two weeks! That is coming up scary fast. We’re having members coming from near and far, including Florida and Ontario. This is a great chance to meet a lot of us in person and get some great comics while you do so.

Sings-to-Moon lures the firebird into the caves on Page 7 of  A Berry from the Sun. You may have recognized Cape Adamant in this story. Or Cap Diamant, as it’s called in the real world. You might also know that there aren’t any caves in the cape. Again, you would be correct. That’s one of the reasons I went with fantasy. So there could be caves under that rock. To see a glimpse of what happens next, please vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics.
