#Songs of the Fallen

[ethanjhake]

Songs of the Fallen Launches on September 18th 2024! 🎉

That's only four weeks away! Why didn't I announce this sooner? Because I'm scared I won't be ready! But you know what? I'll never be ready until I start! The plan is to update every other Wednesday on a biweekly schedule until I'm able to update every week.

What is Songs of the Fallen?

Songs of the Fallen is a christian indie webcomic about a mad princess, a lonely ghost, and a boy soldier. It's set in an original fantasy/fairytale world called the Traivelt. My goal as a storyteller is to tell stories that speak truth from an objective and christian perspective, to help us understand ourselves and the world around us, and also just to be a fun escape from the hustle and bustle of life XD

If you'd like to know more, here is the #songs of the fallen tag for more concept art and visual design, my inbox is always open, and I'm planning on making a newsletter for updates as well! So stay tuned!

Want to help support me?

You can help me out in any or all of these ways:

Reblog! it would be much appreciated!

Get the word out! Tell your family and friends! Or anyone you know who loves fantasy or comics!

If you have the extra cash and feel so inclined, you can also support me on Ko-Fi, and I'm planning on making a patreon page later as well!

Lastly, I want to say Thank You to everyone who has supported me and followed along this far! I'm so excited (and scared) to finally start this project for real, and I'm so happy you all have chosen to follow along :')

Voting for myself is definitely a bit self-serving, but why not? I like my own character, and you should too!

Please vote based on the picture AND the description!

Andre Caron [Swashbucklers of the Magic Kingdom @apieters] - Disney OC

Andre Caron is a swashbuckling young man from the French District of the Magic Kingdom (The Magic Kingdom is basically the world of "The House of Mouse"--all the Disney movies are just that--movies--and the characters have lives outside their movies, although those movies tend to be "fantastic retellings of real-life events" and there is something magical about those Storybooks from the older films...). He is the best friend of the swashbuckling tyrannosaur Chris Carnovo, and together the two of them are the fight choreographers of most of the Disney movies we all know and love ("Peter Pan" was their big break). As a kid, Andre always wanted to be a Knight of the Magic Kingdom, one of the highest honors for valor that could only be won by risking one's life in service of the Royalty of the Magic Kingdom or in the service of a sufficiently large number of people. As an adult, Andre is prone to brooding and melancholy, haunted by his memories of the great civil war known as the Reign of Terror and its leader, Tristan L'Hermite the Black Knight. He is often emotionally cold or short-tempered, prone to biting sarcasm and even fits of rage, yet when the chips are down he will always follow his best friend, Chris Carnovo, off on his galivanting adventures. The two of them complement each others' weaknesses with their strengths. If Chris is impetuous and rash in his zeal to go on an adventure and help his friends, Andre is more strategic and usually has a contingency plan to get his friend and himself out of trouble. Chris, in turn, is Andre's emotional rock, tempering the young man's irritability and sometimes even calling forth the battered remains of Andre's instincts to be a Knight. Andre is ultimately driven by a deep sense of chivalric loyalty to certain people. Chris is one. His childhood friend, Princess Cinderella, is another. The cathedral of Notre Dame and those who dwell within (the Archdeacon and Quasimodo) hold a special place in his heart as a devout Catholic. But perhaps his greatest sense of loyalty is reserved for Queen Sarabi and her family. At the very end of the Reign of Terror, Sarabi--then pregnant with Simba--was about to be killed by Tristan L'Hermite on the steps of the altar of Notre Dame cathedral, when Andre saved her life. The two of them were the only witnesses to the death of Tristan L'Hermite and the end of the Reign of Terror, and on that night Andre swore an oath of loyalty to Queen Sarabi, to her unborn cub Simba, and his lineage. That oath will drive much of his actions in the events of the present day...

A lonely ghost trapped between life and death, she’s been haunting Ryphl, the only person able to see her, since he was discharged from the Children's War.

I’m beyond delighted to reveal the cover of The Dark Mirror, the fifth book in the Bone Season series, designed by Carmen R. Balit and illustrated by Ivan Belikov, with art direction by David Mann. 

I couldn’t love this cover more – it fits perfectly alongside the other books while also having a fresh, nocturnal palette for this brand-new instalment of the series. I can’t even imagine how gorgeous it’s going to look when it’s foiled. Endless thanks to Ivan, as always, for his exquisite illustrations.

The Dark Mirror will be published in hardback, ebook and audio format on 25 February 2025. Signed copies are available to pre-order now from Waterstones and Barnes & Noble; more special editions to be announced.

Pre-order links here.

Sure, give the mad princess a sword. it's a traditional symbol of power and authority, what could go wrong?
