Well I was going to do the next part all in one go (why the format's a little weird, I did pages) but then I went and got sick, so for the sake of not keeping you all waiting for another week or two, here's the first bit of part 3 of the Rolan comic

I'm hoping to post the rest of this part in one go (there's another 11 pages so we'll see if that actually happens) and then we'll finally be back to Rolan again

Part 1 • Previous Part • Next Part

Here's the pages in their original format as well. Realized they might not be super great to read on mobile, so maybe chopping them up was for the best.
