Knell - Chapter 2, Page 12: Placebo vermillionworks.com/knell Chapter 2, Page 15 is up at Patreon. patreon.com/c/vermillion... A dark fantasy webcomic about a necromancer adopting a troubled child. #knellcomic #webcomics #darkfantasy #webtoon #ocsky #southerngothic #foundfamily
Devere continues to go through the town on unicornback and happens to come near a large pool of water where a group of people clad in white garb are gathered at. Nearby is a white church building with stained glass windows and a tree with various ribbons tied to it. A keeper (who is like a priest) wearing green robes is in the water and speaking to the crowd.
Keeper: We are those exiled from Eden and denied blessed conjuration.

He continues as Devere and his unicorn slowly passes by on the nearby road. Only one man looks back at him, the rest of the crowd seem mostly focused on the keeper's words, save for one little girl who looks like she's freezing in the water. We see the keeper's back.
Keeper: Our misuse of his gifts tainted the essences, forcing his hand. But God forgives and awaits our purified spirits.

We finally see the keeper from the front. He's a stocky man with neck-length, dark blonde hair and some stubble on his face. He holds up a vial with a lid shaped somewhere between a star and a cross and has a circle at the center of it. A similar symbol can be seen on the church behind him.
Keeper: Today, I've an elixir from the Fold itself! One with these waters, our very souls will be cleansed of sin.

We see Devere is looking on at the scene. His eyebrow is raised and he looks less than impressed.
Keeper (off screen): Praise the All God, and amen!
The crowd: Amen!

Devere turns his head away. His face is now mostly hidden by his cloak.
Devere whispering: Fuck the Fold and their snake oil.

The other creatures immediately surrounded him, and both Ru and Jayson flew towards them. The creatures scattered. In most dreams, Jayson had to struggle to stay in the air, and he was grateful that flying came easier here.

The creatures were riding their own energy, winding their way up into the sky faster than Jayson ever wanted to believe such bulky things could move.

“Yeah, c’mere!” Randy hollered. “I burn a hundred of your little brothers in campfires every year, what are you gonna do about it?”

He dived right at them. Jayson’s first reflex was to yell at him to stop, but he was glad someone was doing something. Colleen was still flying upwards, and Ru was as frozen as he was, her vivid blue eyes darting all around.

Randy delivered a kick to one of the creatures that sent it spiraling back towards the ground.

Knell - Chapter 2, Page 11: Far Water vermillionworks.com/knell Chapter 2, Page 14 is up at Patreon. patreon.com/c/vermillion... A dark fantasy webcomic about a necromancer adopting a troubled child. #knellcomic #webcomics #darkfantasy #webtoon #ocsky #southerngothic #unicorn #bird
A little while later, we see Devere riding Bill the unicorn through a part of the town of Far Water. Many brown cabins surround the still-wet path he's on, and there's also long moss-filled trees, large jars for collecting water, and a few people going about their everyday business.

We see a woman doing laundry by hand with a washboard (and clearly frustrated with the task) while her baby lays in a wooden cradle that's hanging by ropes from her cabin's porch ceiling.
Baby: Gooo~

We see a father, his daughter, and her grandfather playing a game of horseshoes while talking and enjoying each other's company.

And we once again cut back to Devere who's still riding the unicorn on the path. He lets out a big yawn as he's still tired and this trip is pretty routine. A man in a decorative, feathered hat riding a large, red bird creature called a magnales (which is walking, not flying) has already passed Devere and looks back in awe at the necromancer and his steed.
Man: Whoa...

Panel 1: Imagni walks down a dimly lit hallway with her Flow, contemplating her course of action before meeting her classmates.
Imagni: "That... that was okay. But maybe too needy? I'll save that version- for Meio Dia."
Imagni strokes her chin in thought.
"Not that I'm pursuing those feelings right now. Or am I?"
(Gala cringes hard in the background to herself unseen by Imagni.)

Panel 2: Imagni and Gala walk down the same corridor in exaggerated chibi form. Imagni looks like she's having a meltdown from overthinking.
Imagni: "HMMMRRRRGHHHH! I just need to be myself. I shouldn't try too hard or I'll come off as pushy. They'll either be better than me or worse than me. But I don't want to make any enemies so I can't look too happy if it turns out I'm cycles more talented than I thi--
OH WHO AM I KIDDING?! I already know I'll be the worst creator the Core has ever seen."

Panel 3: Gala silently stands and exhales through her mask looking both thoughtful and irritated by Imagni. Her bright yellow Flow is a little smaller around her head like a flower halo.

Panel 4: Gala phases out into a swirly shower of glowy floaty yellow flower petals. SE- PLIFF!

Panel 5: A top down establishing shot of Imagni standing by herself in front of a hugely ornate marble doorway leading into Meio Dia's classroom. There is a huge glittering chandelier hanging above her head. Imagni stands on a red carpet leading into the room. The floor and walls are covered in gold art deco patterns.
Imagni: " Well... I guess this is the place."

Panel 6: A wide shot of Imagni gripping her map/letter nervously trying to be confident. She is sweating but trying her best to look like she's not about to run back down the corridor.
Imagni: "I can do this."
"I can be myself"
"Time to say hello to everyone!"

Ru shot up into the sky, and the others scrambled into the air after her. Jayson just barely managed to hang onto serenity by picturing himself safe and asleep in his room.

Colleen screamed, some twenty feet below the rest of them. “Whoa!” Randy shouted.

A soundless explosion fanned out beneath them, bending the trees down. The icy wind from the shockwave made Jayson want to curl into a ball, but he couldn’t take his eyes away.

A shot of Joseph looking serious and rather tired, as usual.
Miriam narration: Joseph remained both courteous and reserved.

On another day, Miriam, who's in a lovely yellow dress, sits and has tea and cakes in the music room once again, but this time Florian (in a teal-colored tails jacket and tealish gray pants), with his violin, is playing a duet with Joseph on the piano, performing a song just for Miriam. Joseph has a glass full of absinthe sitting on the piano, complete with a nearby small, silver bowl that holds sugar cubes, and a spoon for putting them in.
Miriam narration: He was prone to drinking during musical performances, and during his free time amid the evening hours. He even drank absinthe of all things! When I asked Florian about it, he simply stated it was his "medicine for pain", and didn't show much concern, so I decided not to press the matter further.

A shot of Joseph at the piano. He's no longer playing and instead clutching his glass of absinthe while apparently looking at Miriam with an expression of sad desperation.
Miriam narration: No matter what state that man was in, he'd often give me such a pleading look... as if he was begging me to realize something.
