Idk Gangle He's Just Doing What He's Told!

"A Rule of Fear"

I really wanted to play around with the framing device in this story, as I liked imagining the air of mystery that Defiance cultivated while they existed. I don't know who the unnamed narrator in this story is, it can be you if you want.

However with this framing device, I do understand that some of the details may be a little hard to glean, so here's a quick summary of everything that happened with Defiance. Deepdark got chronic wasting disease by eating the crow that had eaten Wild Rose, and at the end of his life he asked Prowl to kill him so he wouldn't die from the disease. In doing so he also killed Prowl, and after their deaths Defiance collapsed into chaos and became destroyed. Spike and Fang left to their own devices, but occasionally visit Deepdark and Prowl's gravesite, and Ranger and Hacksaw left for a nearby town to terrorize housepets.

A couple cameo characters appear from Issue 28, which I've used here in the panel on Page 2. Please refer to Issue 28 for user credits.

Shoutout to Deepdark for being one of my favorite characters I've ever written. He really was a blast to create, and I love how many people responded to his brand of overdramatic evil. Fly high, my freak. I'm planning to create a short comic about his childhood at some point, but I don't know when it'll be. Just be on the lookout!

The title for this story comes from Theodore Sturgeon's "Microcosmic God": “So he instituted a rule of fear. The most trivial departure from what he chose to consider the right way of doing things resulted in instant death of half a tribe.”

MAM refs 2/3: secondary characters

I honestly doodle them more than the main trio lmao, but they seldom get finished art and had very outdated refs 😭 now they are free

Upcoming project...

🐈⚰️ || The Ashbourns

One of the first projects I want to officially announce the making of is my kitty husband story! It's a historical period piece in a fantasy 1940's Ireland, and it deals a lot with growing pains. I am aiming to create a webnovel out of it with its own website. If you like anthropomorphic characters, a serious and sweet couple dynamic, and mysterious hocus-pocus dilemmas, please look out for my upcoming story! Details:

Type: Webnovel with illustrations

Scope: 4 total arcs/books

Current Progress: 10+ chapters in, not nearly done with Book 1 but it's going!

Release: When Book 1 is finalized, hopefully this year.

For those who've been aware of The Ashbourns, Book 1 takes place before Anstey and Cerulean were an item 😉

If you'd like to support me, I have a Ko-Fi linked in my bio. No memberships right now, so it's a tip jar. But no real need to, as I'll give updates on my socials and @theashbourns

Thanks for reading~ <3

Details:

Type: Scrolling webcomic

Scope: 3 seasons

Current Progress: Finishing up the beginning which is colored, the rest will be B&W
