CH 24 - Little Fragments of Memory (Patreon)

Gray is gradually recovering his memories, but he will never remember the part of his past involving the guardian spirit of the Forbidden Tome.

Gray can live in the Forbidden Forest in his human form, but he can't stay outside the forest for long as a human. To live in the human world, he has to take the form of a spirit. Since a spirit's death is permanent, he always returns to his human form whenever he can.

By the way, unlike Gray, Wine doesn't have the ability to die and come back to life. Once Wine's body dies, his soul disappears as well.

Gray, Forrest, and Cigarette also share a past that has yet to be revealed.

There's still a lot of the story left to tell, and sometimes I worry that it might feel a little slow or confusing. I hope you'll continue to enjoy uncovering the pieces of it together with me.

There are times when I wonder if creating this comic was the right choice. It hasn't reached a wide audience, but every comment, like, share, and kind word has meant more to me than you probably realize.

To everyone who has stayed with me and supported this story—thank you, truly. Your encouragement has helped me keep going, and I'm grateful to have you here with me on this journey.
