Work Continues on Firefly · 8:38pm Nov 13th, 2019
Following Monday's chapter release. As I seem to have some strong momentum on the story, I'll continue working on it in lieu of Nightmare Night for now.
The next chapter will pick up right where the last one left off, and I'll be drawing some inspiration from certain scenes belonging to a certain famous captain of a certain famous 1980s/90s sci-fi series for it. You'll also start to get some hints about what injustice Firefly thinks was done the gryphon side, though its full telling cannot be done until deeper into the war. A revelation the gryphons offer in return can be explained before too long, however.
Also know that I'm going to be commissioning some artwork of this story; of certain scenes and characters. More information will follow in due course as soon as I can determine what exactly I want there.
Nothing else to say at this point, except thanks as always to everyone who read and commented!
I'm so happy with how the thestrals have evolved since the early days. A comparison drawing inspiration from Star Trek isn't wrong at all. At this point, there is something kinda Trek about them with the vague loyalties, mysterious unspoken powers and a sense of destiny to play a significant role in the unfolding story. I can't wait to read through your next google doc and all the ones after that!
Interesting perspective
I definitely wouldn't have noticed something like that unless it was heavily spelled out for me , so thanks for the heads up!
I'm open to doing something for the art bit. Really enjoying this epic saga. Keep in touch.
