I’m so so sorry for the lateness with this. I thought I had already posted this and page 12, which will come in a second.

As for the page! We finally make it to the mortal world! And...uh oh.

Enjoy!

Page 10! My favourite page of the prologue, and maybe even my favourite page so far.

And we finally see our heroes! This basically confirms that the prophecy is about them, but one question remains unanswered: what role does Tortimer himself play in all this? Looks like he won’t be getting an answer, either...

Just a note: remember that first panel. ;)

Enjoy!

Page 9! So sorry for the lateness with posting this page, it honestly completely slipped my mind.

Regardless, Happy New Year! You can expect a lot of exciting pages over the course of 2021, which you’ll be getting a taster of shortly ;)

As for this page in particular: Stormbringer gives Tortimer a prophecy! I wonder where those lightning bolts are going...

Enjoy!

Aaaand Reginald and Emilia finally appear in the comic...but we aren’t going to see them for a while after this.

Who has Emilia spotted...?

This was a very exciting page to post! Timothy’s words trigger a flashback from Tortimer. He’s clearly familiar with this force...but how exactly?

Enjoy!

And finally, the series’ recurring symbol appears! This is the Clock of Order...but things aren’t looking so good for it. What could be the cause of the fading glow?

Enjoy!

happy birthday to this firey bastard!

i had an absolute blast working on this painting! i’ve got a better understanding of how fur length and direction works now. the smoke was tough to do, but i’m pleased with the final outcome (it’s due to his fire powers btw)!

as for the last sketch - the hat wouldn’t go on his ears without them piercing it (he didn’t want to wear it anyway), so the others found another solution...

enjoy!

Page 3!

Finally we’re up to this year’s pages! The colouring on this one still isn’t the best, but it gets better as we progress through the prologue. Timothy reveals that there is something amiss. Tortimer is about to ask more questions...when he sees something.

Enjoy!

Preview of Page 3, coming tomorrow, October 15th!

Timothy is looking a bit forlorn. Looks like there isn’t good news, but what is it exactly?

(from my Instagram @/angawdmeg)

Let’s face it, Redd probably thought Tsuneflare here was his dad before he met Rowan... Introducing Tsuneflare! I’ve wanted to show off the group that he comes from so badly, but I can’t do that until December unfortunately ;-; but here’s one of them anyway! Tsuneflare is the first fire hero, and you may have seen his name on Redd’s ref—however that’s all I can reveal right now! I’ve been wanting to draw these two together for ages. Redd always gets mad when someone is taller than him, so you can imagine his anger (and slight fear) when he discovers this gigantic god of a kitsune lmao.

Hope you enjoy!

Page 2!

The last of the pages that were made last summer. Don’t look too hard at the first panel everyone, it’s super old and gross! Anyway, we finally find out just who Tortimer saw in the previous page. It’s Timothy, an old friend of his! Most of you who have seen my reference sheets will know that he’s Tom’s dad.

Additionally: the HOAV Discord server is now open! If you join, you’ll be able to talk to others, post and see art, talk about the comic and even see super-secret WIPs! I hope to see you there!
