Queen of the Dead 109
Yay, I managed to finish this page before my friend comes to visit tomorrow! There will be no new page next week, though, since I’ll be working on the comics that we draw together while he is here. ^^

I thought it would be fun to reintroduce Hekate in the story (since we haven’t seen her since page 8) by citing a curse tablet where she is mentioned. This spell is not from a curse tablet, though, but from a papyrus found in Egypt (I believe). However, I felt it wasn’t so very different from the texts on curse tablets and it gave such a nice presentation of Hekate as lady of the restless dead.

There maybe won’t be a new page next week, since my friend will visit me again and during that time I’m supposed to work on the comics that we draw together. Unless I manage to draw one more page before he arrives, but I can’t promise anything. ^^

Bad timing for getting your period.
I recently printed Destroyer of Light as a book in English! I have it for sale in my Ko-fi shop, so if you ever wanted a physical copy of my comics, this is your chance. :)

There actually were some kind of medicinal tablets in the Greco-Roman world, at least in later antiquity. Six tablets in a tin box were discovered in a shipwreck dating to 140-130 BCE (way too late for this comic, so let’s say that Apollon started to make these tablets long before the humans).

Hades: “We need more tea to deal with this shit.”

The comic will now be taking a short break, since a friend will visit me next week and during that time I’m supposed to work on the comics that we draw together (not to mention I’m also doing some version of Inktober). Sorry to leave you hanging in such a tense moment, I hope I’ll be back in a couple of weeks. ^^

The more angry Athena is with her father, the more titles she uses when she speaks to him. But no matter what she does, she always remains Zeus’ favorite.
