December-January Schedule Reminder
Just a quick reminder that I’ll be taking Christmas week off to spend time with family and be nice to myself, so there wont be a page release on the 29th, nor will there be an early page release on the Patreon that day. I’m going to forego my usual tens digit turnover off-week since my schedule was a bit sporadic and slow in the last quarter of this year and I’d like to keep up a good pace. Chapter 5 is 40-something pages long and concludes the first act of the story, and I want to get it out as quickly as I can without hurting myself.
End of Chapter 4 Update
Well here we are, the end of Chapter 4. It took longer than I expected because I made some bad decisions early on in the chapter, but I’ve learned from those mistakes now and hopefully Chapter 5 will be better!
As a quick refresher for what the plan is: I will be taking a month-long hiatus to build back up my backlog and recuperate, so Chapter 5 will start on the 1st of December, with the usual weekly pages. Not only that, occasionally you might get two pages a week: On Monday and Friday, both at 10 AM Eastern Time to make up for lost time. Don’t worry about me getting overworked, the idea is just to do it whenever my backlog reaches a certain overflow so it will PROBABLY be a very rare occurence.
Following the start of Chapter 5, we’ll also be going back to my old model of taking a week off every time we turn over a tens mark in pages. So for instance, I’ll be taking a week off for page 80, and then another at page 90, and so on.
As always, thanks for sticking with the comic. I love it each and every time I get a new comment, even if it’s to tell me that my comic looks like Kill Six Billion Demons (I’m very flattered, but I know).
See you next month,
Soma (Gregoria)
Page 69 Final Delay
Hi there Gatesers. I just got home from my trip and it’s 5:30 AM on a Wednesday so I’m definitely not gonna be able to meet the date that I set for Page 69’s delay. I’m pushing it back to the 25th of August so I have time to wind down from my trip and get back in the groove of drawing. The plan is the same after that: Continue at a bi-weekly pace until Chapter 4 is concluded, then the comic will take a month hiatus so I can build back up my backlog.
That said, I’m feeling very refreshed after my trip and I’m so ready to start drawing again!
Thank you!

Page 69 Delay
Page 69 will be delayed to the 18th of August since I’ll be out of state all next week on vacation. Because of recent page delays and the temporary return to a biweekly upload schedule, I will not be taking a break week after page 70. After this delay it should be smooth sailing through to the end of the chapter (page 74), where we’ll be taking a month long hiatus while I build back up my page backlog. Thanks for reading!

Page Release Schedule Update
For the remainder of Chapter 4 we’ll be returning to a bi-weekly upload schedule. I’m struggling to keep up with the workload on top of actually trying to make money, and returning to biweekly would give me time to build back up a backlog. This means page WIPS will release bi-weekly as well, but they’ll hopefully be fully complete now. Thanks for understanding.
