Sorry about this being a day late. Called to do unexpected night shifts and lost track of time, especially so due to this being holiday season.
Anyway, story by Sean Harrington of the webcomic Spying With Lana and art is by Colin Wells of Exiern Chapter 29 and Rxiern fame!

For a bit of fun at the start of 2020, we turned Exiern into a health and lifestyle blog over a couple of weeks or so.
Well, it was really just lifestyle last time but we're going to tackle health this time in the sequel. We're also using the time to give our regular artist a break.
So for the next couple of weeks, we're having just a bit of fun ...

As soon as we can, we'll get all these most recent pages completed but for now, hopefully this has made up for the lack of advancement in the story in November.
We're also going to be working on a complete overhaul of the main website in the months ahead. In the interim, please type in exiern.com and don't put www in front of it as that's still throwing up an error.
The website will get th...

2021-12-21 10:45:53 +0000 UTC View PostUpdate: exiern.com is diverting here temporarily until we can fix why the last few weeks of the site disappeared. New page updates will be here and everyone can read those even if you're not paying. We also added another tag for a new story not related to Exiern called Flow Her Tears which you can also see by clicking the tag below.
We're trying something to try and hopefully get some kind of a boost in patrons on Patreon among other things. Hopefully this helps everyone and es...

Sorry about the slight delay, night shift kept me busy and I forgot to set this up before I left to go and get some sleep (a common occurrence that the readers of Dark Reflections: Zen are all too familiar with, I'm sure. Though surprisingly not so much for Dark Reflections: Chaos - maybe the chaotic thing is to not be chaotic, perhaps?)

The next page after the last one.
Well, that confirms the mission was successful, I guess.
Next draft page as soon as we get it.
I guess all up this is moving the story along faster for now if nothing else.
The website will get this page in about an hour.

Well, with the production of Exiern increasingly resembling a multi-car pileup, to add to the crash site, I missed that this page was ready for posting for three days.
Also this one is actually set four pages before the previous posted page because I got the pages out of alignment when I sent them to our artist.
Then again, I don't think anyone seriously thought our hero (?) would fail at this mission so it didn't spoil things too much, I hope!
Anyway, the website should get...

Things are definitely coming to a head!
Some more exposition here but that should be the last of it, for a while at least. For something a bit different, the one to last version of the dialogue is the other image included which would have also worked well enough but I felt it needed just a bit more tweaking.
Once again, just received this!

Sorry about this but a bit of exposition dump was necessary. Interesting how what would be a short scene on film or a paragraph or two in a book can look like so much on a webcomic page. It also took a couple of hours to write and redraft but will be read much faster, I'll bet.
Once again, just received this!

We're going to keep on posting draft pages for a few more pages in order to speed things up to make up for any lagging of the story.
To add, on top of potential changes to the dialogue is that there could also be changes in the art when these pages are eventually finalised.
But for now, we're concentrating on just getting to you all as much of the story as possible as fast as we can for the next few weeks at least.
The website should get the this page in about 60 minutes. 2021-12-07 10:07:35 +0000 UTC View Post

Remember all $5 and above tier members, we're waiting for your submissions to see which ones could one day potentially be made into one of these Exiern short stories as well!
Next Monday is the title page for the next in this series of Exiern Shorts!
See you next week!

It seems to be the way with publishing Neese lately, pauses followed by sudden bursts of activity!
Art by Luis XIII (formerly Antipus) - who would have known he's so good at illustrating rabbits?
Story and lettering by Scott T. Hicken which I suppose he's OK at (I kid, Scott! I kid!)
At least a couple more pages really soon! (Definitely within this month and probably the next few days, they just need the speech balloons to be added!)

2021-12-01 10:33:26 +0000 UTC View PostThe original plan was to not charge any patrons on the Exiern Patreon on January 1st 2022 but we've had to defer that one month to no charge on February 1st 2022.
So there'll still be a free month with no charges for everyone but now we will be still charging on January 1st 2022 now. It's now February 1st 2022 without the charge.
The reason for the one month delay is that even though the 60 page bonus story is basically finished, it still needs some post production work and the ar...

We're going to keep on hitting the accelerator a few more pages.

We tried to change things up in production but it unfortunately stumbled.
We don't want to keep everyone waiting anymore so we're just going to publish the next few pages in draft form to speed things up and make up for any lost time. We'll come and complete them later after we've made up the storytelling deficit. The website will get this page in about 90 minutes.
