So, what made you make the Tinget about the Ghouls when there's clearly worse topics that need to be discussed? I get the Ghouls are a problem. It's just they didn't seem like a big enough one to warrant a meeting. Since they haven't been a main topic or discussed in quite a while, maybe here and there but; considering the whole deal with MT before Ronja took it over, Jahla being kidnapped and threatened/attacked on more than one occasion, etc. The meeting felt off considering the ghouls have not always been around, so them calling them 'natural' didn't sit right with me. Was this just to provide some explanation or help, or?

The fact that they have now figured out a way to put a soul to rest, 30 years later, is a big deal, and everyone deserves to know of this, hence the meeting.

Whispervale tribe were an enemy of the Meteors , or they just dont get along/despise them? Did they got in fights/war in the past?

kique
>>46550423

They are neighbors, so they've had to watch out for MT in the past due to the MT males often seeking trouble. They've also helped an MT female called Isbel in the past, so they know what MT did and was capable of. Their view on MT is not good because of these things.

How do you get the shading are your dogs and felines so well? And how do you know how to portion them ?

GIIANA

I wondered if a dog that looked like a Westie or a Yorskshire would be considered in Asmundr/Home lore as a Vildmarkens Terrier? Or would they be Vildmarkens with something else? Have a nice day!!

What prompts the creation and variation of culture among the tribes? Where are these ideas inspired by and how are they so fluently incorporated and meshed together to form the world of Aedra? Any specifics would be great, very fascinated! Also, what is the specific processing of plotting out a comic? Scripts, diagrams, other means of dimension? Is it hard to keep the story cohesive? Are creative liberties ever taken during the comic's plot itself where it may stray from original purpose?

1. Was Johaan yourself in the comic? 2. Are you still using photoshop? 3. What device do you draw on? 4. Have you ever had a crush on any of your own characters? :p aha

I color and shade on the same layer, so I blend the colors together and paint with various shades to achieve the shading. I use the mixer brush to blend the colors.

>>46553289

It would have to be a mix since vildmarkens terrier look quite different from a westie or yorkie (:

I may get inspired by various real life cultures, colors, and landscapes. Music often helps as well. The world is mostly inspired by scandianvian and old norse culture, with some more modern hierarchy thrown into it. I use scripts, where I write in detail what will happen in a scene. It's mostly straight forward with descriptions of how a character is placed, perspectives, speed etc, to easier guide me when it comes down to drawing the page. I've got complete calendars of the days/seasons/timeskips/what happened on each day written down. It can be hard to keep track of everything but I try my best. I write the plot in the way of "Discovery Writing", where I allow the characters to have enough space to make their own decisions and take unexpected turns, sometimes taking a different route than what I had originally planned, although the ending is planned and set in detail, as well as major plot points.

1. No, I renamed myself a couple of years after the character was created. 2. Yes, I use Photoshop CC 2020 3. I use a smal wacom intuos tablet. 4. No X)

DrowZy

Just do you have a link to the brushes you use? And do they work with procreate? 💛

Devinital

Don't know if this is appropriate for this spot or not but here we go. Are you thinking of selling merchandise or an online shop related to Asmundr/Home products? Stuff like tee-shirts or stickers and the like. Just a thought as I said before I think the Tribe badges would make good stickers and you could make certain characters into simple shirt or sticker designs. Just a thought.

BinxShasta

How do the canines/ felines make their armor, clothing, and weapons? What do they use? Also does it take more than one member to help create one piece?

Sunny Daze

Do you; or will you have a hard copy comic for sale for both Home (when it’s finished) and/or Asmunder? I’d love to hold the pages in my hands.

Flann Moriath

I don’t have a question, just want to say that I would LOVE someday to have a hardcover copy of your comics. I’d pay a lot for it too. I hope someday you’ll consider printing them. Thank you for bringing these wonderful stories to us!

Maxen Wilde (Noodle)

how are you holding up with your current schedule, is it better for you than the biweekly enough to stay long term?

Anonymous

How many layers do you use when drawing a page? What do you put on one layer, vs what do you separate out into multiple layers?

Kitty

Can we ask bird speckles for customs?

Zuzira

This is gonna seem like a really weird question, but how do the dogs go about dental care? Especially if they live forever. Cuz assuming they don’t heal like a supernatural being you’d assume that they’d only be able to live up to a certain point before they started facing tooth decay problems, which can be really dangerous, especially with infection. Do they have a special herb or something to prevent this?

Yami

I´m a bit confused by the Havenreach banner/crest...idk what´s it called on the new map. Why does it look like Father´s ship if their crest used to have that tree symbol? Especially since Jahla said she wanted to distance herself from the whole sky god theme x)

Nesha

is Flameguard just the all around jerks of the dog tribes. because even south spear tribe seem more open then they are? Also speaking of south spear they seem to adcept any out laws. Yet she said they had standards. what are there hard no!

Anonymous

Hello everyone, can someone tell me where I can find info about all the tribes of Aedra and their paint themes ? It's one of the things that I like most about the comic , and the whole story is awsome too!

ArtemistheArtist22

How does the whisperblossom tribe get to land? Do they utilise boats? If so, were they a gift from the gods or did they built them?

Agachi

How do you choose the illustration to show for the preview? Do you sometimes fear it might reveal too much of the incoming page?

Kitty

1 What do you think the next base will be? New one? Or archived one? 2 Is it costly for you to make stickers? Does the sticker production take time and that's why we have to wait 3 months until we can get any? Have you thought about doing stickers with one character only instead of a round one with a background? 3 Do you think it would be a nice idea to add a FAQ on Patreon/Discord/Wiki to gather the most asked questions, so people seeking answers could look at it for simplicity? 4 If you don't have time for bonus content, how about slowing the comic pages to get more time for extra art? Us fans are certainly willing to wait. :)

1. So when a female comes into season what exactly happens, do they give off a specific kind of scent and/or bleed? Do they cover themselves until it’s over? 2. When it comes to wiki, wouldn’t it be better to post everything for example, like the tribes. We know all the tribes already, they could be posted on wiki and when u get to them in the comic all u have to do is post the members. U could do the same for the non domestic that we come across on the comic 3. How far is it till the comic is completed? 4. What’s ur inspiration for coat designs? 5. Originally rogio was suppose to die from what I remember but u changed his fate, how did u manage without redoin the rest of the comic? was kargo destined to die always or did that change as well? 6. Who’s ur favorite character in each tribe? 7. Do u have anything special for us coming up outside the comic, like raffles etc? 8. When kargo and rogio got into it, kargo stated that rogio being with ranach sure taught him how to react, can u explain that cause what I’m getting is when kargo and rogio both are going through difficult times kargo lashes out and rogio takes it out physically 9. During mating I know they don’t lock up anymore but shouldn’t that be just for the natives, the asmundr pack originated from earth where dogs lock when mating so how can they’re bodies just not do that anymore, do the earth dogs go through some kind transformation while being transferred? 10. Is lykenia based off a dog I saw on google, lycenia? 11. What does rogio and the other think of seeing jahla? 12. Why couldn’t Keirr go to ronja when feral told him about her? I understand why he didn’t want to leave at first but now he knows. He is trying to be reunited with his family that is everyone’s goal correct.

Some of the more complicated clothing was given to them by the sky gods or even spirits, like Fjordor once mentioned about his armor. They can create more simple leather material, rope etc by using hides and various foliage fibres. One can do it alone but it's easier to have help.

>>46569354

Asmundr I don't think so, with Home I don't know. I'm not happy with the art in the first few chapters so wouldn't be too happy about it being forever printed X)

My upload schedule all depends on how active my days are, right now I can produce more pages in the span of a week because I don't have that much interfering with my work, except for custom designs and daily chores. But the schedule will vary depending on if I have work to do in the apartment, people coming over etc.

1 doodle layer that later gets deleted once the sketch layer is done. Sketch layer is then deleted once the lines are done. The background is often drawn on separate layers for each panel, but later gets merged into one layer unless I have subjects I want to keep for future reference, like trunks, mountains etc. The color layer for the characters usually take 1 layer or 2-3, depending on if I have character overlapping each other. The coloring of the characters is separated into 3 layers; base layer, white markings, outfits and paint.

Their teeth stay in very good shape for a long time, they may remain mostly white forever, but the strength of them may deterioate once they are pushing 20 years+. Herbs can help keep them stronger for a longer time.

The tree symbol is just for us, it was part of a small design contest I had. The shield symbol on the map is their official one that the rest of the tribes will see. The ship is subtle enough for Jahla to accept.

kique
>>46603229

Flamegarde is just generally a reserved tribe that don't trust or accept many strangers. They were personally attacked by Jahla, hence their aggression towards her. Southspear accepts outlaws because that is what they are, they don't follow the "norm" when it comes to what the capital suggests. When Lykenia said they had standards, she was referring to the way Meteor Tribe treated their females, they may be outlaws, but they still treat their females as equals.

There are small islands they can travel across to reach the mainland, between these islands they've constructed simple bridges.

I go by what is the least spoilery but what could also spark a conversation and theories. It's not that difficult most of the time X)

1. Southern Jaro. 2. Yes I do have to pay some of the production fee, this is why I haven't added any other merch on patreon since I would have to create a new, more expensive tier to cover the cost. A patron has to pledge 3 consequtive months in order to apply for a merch, this is how patreon has it, not my decision. I might make a sticker with just one character but I then need to make sure the corners of the character don't mess up the sticker border. 3. yes. 4. I think that's a tough decision, I think it's mostly 50/50 of the people who want more pages vs those who want more bonus content.

1. They give off a certain sweet odor when in heat, but it's very subtle. They may bleed but it's also very subtle and faint. 2. There's only a few of us working on the wiki, we try and update the wiki when we have time, but there's a lot more to the wiki than just the tribes. 3. ----------------spoiler question.----------------------- 4. Real life creatures mostly. 5. I write in the way of "Discovery Writing", where I leave enough room for characters to make their own decisions and change what I might have originally planned. This was the case with Rogio, but it didn't mess up the future plots because of this open room I gave him and those around him. Kargo was written to die at an early point of the story writing. 6. In each tribe would take me forever to write, but from my favorite tribes: Fraujar, Roamer, Feaf, Jahla, Lahmina, Iberon. 7. Raffles aren't allowed on patreon, but I may host something like that elsewhere. 8. Rogio- "I'm sorry for how everything turned out, it wasn't something either of us (him and Roamer) had planned. We were both hurt, broken and we needed each other." Kargo- "And that's how you solve everything. Every night with Ranach sure taught you how to react" Kargo was referring to how Rogio slept with Roamer to solve his personal issues, something Kargo believes Ranach taught him. 9. The knotting mechanism of mating was lost decades ago, early on after the gods had interfered with the original canine species. 10. I don't know, I don't know what you saw so I can't say XD What I do have is a similarly designed dog on my dA account that was named Lycenia that the character later was based on. 11. Rogio has been told about Jahla and others of Roamer´s family, so he wasn't too surprised to see her.

You survived the Tinget xD 1) I wonder, will we see more of Fjordor, considering he is semi main? And what's about Axi? 2) Since these dogs don't howl beside guards, don't they have songs and stuff like that? 3) In our world there are urban legends and the likes, do the dogs have stuff like that too? Like specific night beasts that are well know because of their look or abilities? 4) Why some night beasts like the one in the very first chapter or nightmare Rogio have wings? ow that comes to be? 5) Are there nightbeasts that could talk? Like luring their victims in? 6) Rogio looks so tired, how much sleep does he get at the moment? 7) Does Rogio miss Kargo, knowing how long thy knw each other? They just started to get along again, I assume he does. 8) After Kargos and Rogios talk in the woods about how he should treat Roamer good, how much time passed to the campfire night or was it the same evening?

Jasiri

What are some of the sicknesses they could get Have u gone back and redid some pages from the comic? What do the natives know about the akiulfr species, shouldn’t they have talked about that as well considering most believe they are danger? Can we get a new akiulfr base too? Has rhovanion come to accept Aedra for what it is yet or is he still thinking like before? What would’ve happened if ranach was still around, would the four pups be at risk of being treated like the other females?

1. We will see them again. 2. They may have certain "tunes" of howling that could be classified as songs, but it's rare for one to howl much, except for Jahla who does it quite often. 3. Yes, Aira was a legend for example. 4. Some have wings, but they can't fly that high or far. 5. Nightbeasts no. 6. He can sometimes sleep throughout the night, but he has restless sleep so he doesn't get much rest anyway. 8. Same day.

>>46707484

1. I can't get into specifics but there's not that many, usually they are forced on by a spirit. 2. Just the first pages to update the art style to look more like my current one, for a better first impression. 4. Eventually yes.
