Vol 2 New Pages Update #2 (Patreon)

Here’s another short scene I’m adding into the printed version of Volume Two. This one comes fairly early on in the book. I realized I left it kind of obtuse that the smoke the wolves can smell comes from Oren’s forge. I wanted it to be a bit easier to connect the dots by showing Oren, you know, forging. Also, impurities in the metal will be something I come back to in the future/Volume Three, so it doesn’t hurt to mention it earlier.

When I lay out pages, I focus on double-page spreads with a print edition in mind. I like to have cliffhangers on the right hand side in an effort to keep people turning pages, and then spoilers/big plot moments/reveals usually land on the left. When I add pages like this, I need to do in an equal and opposite way so it doesn’t screw up every double page spread further down stream, as it were. So, sometime next month I’ll post the last additional page I added to Volume Two, which comes during Rask, Egg and Lichen’s field trip!
