An 8 page digital comic for Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint, drawn in black pencil and colored in with a flat, watercolor texture. The comic is monochrome with scanned pieces of paper incorporated in the work. Lines of text are dispersed through the comic.

Page 1: A white backgound. A pair of hands is typing on a keyboard. An IV is connected to the right hand. On the monitor, a snippet from Ways of Survival is visible, reading: "Yoo Joonghyuk stood before the vast, endless calamity pouncing on him and spoke, "Until I witness the end of the scenario, I shall never give up. That's why... You shouldn't give up, either."

The text of the comic reads: "Live. Even if you must crawl your way out of the grave."

Page 2: A white background. The text continues: "and even if you must burn every page of this book to keep you warm."

A young Kim Dokja sits on his chair, his back facing the viewer. In front of him sits his mother, Lee Sookyung, in a prison uniform. Only part of her face is visible through a tinted screen. The rest of the screen is covered with pieces of paper, all including snippets about the characters of Ways of Survival.

Page 3: A white background. A young Dokja types away at an old computer. Below him, an older Dokja is wearing business clothes and typing at a newer computer. Both are visible from a top-view, and only the tops of their heads and their arms are visible. They are positioned such that they're facing each other. Young Dokja has a blanket of paper on his shoulders, while older Dokja has a coat of paper hung on the chair behind him. Both pieces of paper include snippets from ORV. For young Dokja, it is about the characters of Ways of Survival. For older Dokja, it is about his guilt for reading this story.

Between the two monitors the text of the comic reads: "You can consume us to sustain you through the winter and we will still be there when spring arrives."

Page 4: A white background fades into black. A tree branch and leaves cover the top of the screen. The branch and leaves are all made of pieces of paper. Behind the leaves stands an older Dokja, wearing his white coat. He is looking at something with a horrified expression on his face. The background fades to black. At the bottom of the page, the outline of young Dokja is drawn in white pencil. He is hugging his knees to his chest and looking forward. In front of him stand the characters of Ways of Survival (Uriel, Hyunsung, Jihye, and Namwoon) drawn in a loose, sketchy style. They are all looking at him, and Uriel and Hyunsung are leaning over as if to speak to him.

The text above these sketches reads: "The moment you love a story it becomes immortal,"

Page 5: A black background. At the top of the page the text continues: "Neverending." The rest of the page is covered in a piece of paper with the top cut out to resemble grass. On top of the grass sits an older Dokja drawn in white pencil. He is on his hands and knees, sobbing while covering his face. Next to him, the figures of the Forgotten Ones (the Outer Gods) are shown as blob-like shapes cut out of paper. They are made of repeating texts, such as: "Kim Dokja" "Who are you" "You know us" and "Give me". One of the blobs is reaching out to the sobbing Dokja.

The rest of the page is the scanned piece of paper. It is filled with snippets of the Forgotten Ones' memories. They are the last words the companions spoke to Joonghyuk in his past rounds. The text fades in opacity as you go down, and the contents become more and more scrambled. At the bottom, two words are bolded and outlined in pencil, representing the text of the comic: "Take it."

Page 6: A black background. The scanned page from Page 5 is now zoomed out to be a square on the top half of the page, with some creases visible. Some words are circled in black pencil and shaded in, colored white on the black background. They read: "Take all of it".

Below, the piece of paper is further zoomed out. It is folded into some sort of origami shape.

Page 7: A black background. A continuation of page 6. The piece of paper is gradually zoomed out, folded further and further with a shape resembling a spiral at its center.

Final page, page 8: A black background fades into white. At the bottom of this page the final product of the folding is shown: a paper rose. Dokja's hands are cupping the flower. The final line of text of the comic reads: "We don't mind." /END ID

[Story "One Who Is Loved By All" is continuing its storytelling.]

orv kim dokja yoo joonghyuk han sooyoung orv spoilers yoohankim second hands are often left out of daily use clocks only the hour and minute hands are important to the clock's use do you get me. she writes herself out of most of orv's narrative a side character at least. a villain at best only the protagonists are important to the narrative

secretive plotter is so down bad for kim dokja from the beginning its so funny. other constellations messages are like [prisoner of the golden headband thinks your battle looked cool] or [demon-like judge of fire thinks you were brave!] and then sp's are like [secretive plotter thinks your plots are like sooo cool] [secretive plotter is sharing a wink with you over your tactics] [secretive plotter's eyes are shining watching you] [secretive plotter thinks you should dump that loser yoo joonghyuk] [secretive plotter wants to slob on that knob like corn on the cob] brother get UP!!!!!

imagine kim dokja trying to get into a car and accidentally knocking his head against the top of it. now imagine him getting caught in the rain without an umbrella. now imagine him spending too long finding the right webnovel to read while he eats and his food going cold.

Everyone should give their OCs detailed childhood backstories and memories so that your OC isn't blanking out in the subway thinking if he was born as a fully formed 28 yo while a terrorist attack is actively happening

Happy birthday Kim Dokja!

I'd like to think that Lee Sookyung is happy to see that her son's birthday is celebrated by more people than just them two now

I can't believe I decided to read orv on a whim because I just wanted a good manhwa with no romance subplot and here I am knees deep into the novel questioning my whole life because whatever these mfs have got going on is much more nastier and visceral than any romance
