The water god stands, her hair caressing and framing the page. Seaweed and stars frame the corners. Her eyes are closed "My child. How may I help?" Our protagonist, with pain on his face declares "I want to be a real forest spirit!" She smiles at him "Your heart is already there. But are you ready for the hardships to come?" He stands confident and determined, hand on his chest "I am. I'll do whatever it takes"

We see our protagonist swimming with desperation. He arrives at his destination "I'm here to see the water god!" A water spirit replies "There's a waitlist, come back next month" He looks upset "That's so unfair!" "Sorry, can't help it" is all he gets in response We then have 4 panels of him dissociating and crying. The colours are dull and dark We see another panel of him swimming, slower and sadder. He thinks to himself "it's been a month now... please" The water spirit from before has a smile on her face "The water god will see you now"

The woman responds with an expression as if our protagonist is just joking around. "Trapped? Don't be silly. You belong here in the water!" She turns around and leaves with a friendly smile "See ya!" Our protagonist stares forward, the words "You belong here in the water" slowly crushing him, as the colour red grows. In the final panel he's trying to break out of the panel, panic clear on his face, and tears flying. "I JUST CAN'T DO THIS ANYMORE!"

Forest Spirit, a comic exploring transition through water and forest spirits
Page 1
A water spirit looks longingly at a group of forest spirits "Don't you ever wish you could be one of them?" He asks. Another water spirit sits with him "Hm? The forest spirits?" She asks. She grins "Nah, I'm happy as I am!" He looks over nervously "You dont feel..." The final panel is of him underwater, its dark and kelp holds him down like chains. "TRAPPED?" is written in bold red letters behind him, finishing the question he asked.

And a Sera design now!
A sketchy tattoo design of Sera from Dragon Age Inquisition. She has a cheeky and smug grin and raises an eyebrow. She is framed with two arrows just below her shoulders. Circles mimicking rays of light rest behind her.

A wee Dorian Pavus design, absolutely love his story
Dorian Pavus from Dragon Age: Inquisition. It is a portrait of him with a snake around his shoulders, a chain hanging around his neck, and lilies in the background.

Been using a notebook to correlate all my thoughts for this comic. Not really done this before but it's been super helpful since there's going to lots of things I'll be exploring
Sketch of a satyr woman, taped into a notebook with washi tape. A cut off section of text can be seen, referencing a "routine of making a pie"

Some photos of the original comic- think it's safe to say my comic skills have definitely improved since! This was probably the first Proper comic I completed, though there were many unfinished attempts from before I went to uni
