       Indeed. But the final pronunciation is a bit tricky to understand.
       The letter ё in Russian language is pronounced like “yo”, but I’ve no idea how you two use it.

         We were actually going for more of this pronunciation of the letter. Refer to the English section where it’s supposed to be silent; or possibly the French/Dutch pronunciation like in “Noël.”

     Heh, that’s the problem with early chapters. Gotta set up everyone’s lives/routines/relationship before you can mess it all up and make it exciting. Up until that point, though, things can be a little dry. That’s why I throw in the humor to help keep it interesting. Glad it’s working for ya.

   Ooh, a way to explain the proper pronunciation that is both entertaining AND reasonable within the universe!

         It’s Archmages fault!! I had the page done last night but he had to go to work.

         Pssssssh, like making money and building a career is more important than the internet.

   Hi, Nice comic you have here

   I have one question though : Why did you go for the “donkey ears” style elves? I mean, obviously the “donkey” effect varies greatly, in the above strip the brunette has the “worst” case. Just curious, still its not really important to the story (or is it?!).

   Overall I enjoy both the story and the art style so far, keep up the good work

   Ps : I blame WoW for starting the whole “big ears” elf look

     Well… for your question about whether or not it’s important to the story, I would refer you to Ch3P1 for that. Interpret how you will.

     And I wouldn’t blame WoW for the ear style, I would blame the fact that Naarie is a HUGE Zelda fangirl.

       So true.

       Although I would say it’s more accurate to call me a LINK fangirl… *dreamy siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh*

   Heh. Spend an entire strip on the correct pronunciation of “Taurë” and then misspell “tongue.”

   Coincidence?
