From the author:

The main characters of this comic were created when I was in 8th grade, and they have existed for 11 years now. Throughout these 11 years, I struggled with terrible self-doubt, procrastination, got distracted, and almost gave up on art altogether. However, I was fortunate enough to discover my true purposes in life. With this new understanding, I now realize that what truly matters is the will and the act of doing something meaningful to me, not the achievement it may bring.

Maybe as the plot thicken I will share more specific metaphors behind the series, but for now, I just hope to deliver this understanding through the writing and art of this comic.

All the lines are drawn with pencil, and the colors are applied digitally. I aim to preserve the roughness of hand-drawing and my undying obsession for the craft itself.
