This is an early page release because we passed the $6000 milestone on KICKSTARTER!
Thank you so much for all the support so far! We're almost there, just three more milestones to go! :D

Haha, that was my first thought too! On the next page, secrets revealed... Ariel has really been taken over by a Ghast! Posted on October 12th, 2011 at 10:45AMKnickinator replied:

Inventing unheard of formulas and magical concepts for dark, sinister, world warping magic by "getting lucky"? Barely talking throughout the panels you are in? Deflecting all attention from yourself? Yet your bio says you act before thinking?As Solaris's plans are revealed, I'm more suspicious of Callisto than of Solaris. Posted on October 12th, 2011 at 12:41PM Reply

Uhm... That's Deimos, not Callisto. Posted on October 12th, 2011 at 01:10PM ReplyTim replied:
You can't see his face, but Callisto is saying: "just got lucky" or whatever :P Posted on October 12th, 2011 at 01:43PMShadowdragoonftw replied:
I... deny that. You only see Deimos and Solaris in this whole panel. Not a single mention of Callisto at all. :p Posted on October 12th, 2011 at 05:43PMAndrew-David replied:
You guys, Callisto, Deimos and Solaris are in this page, just like the previous pages that took place in this room.Solaris is the one asking the questions from off-panel in panel 3, and we can clearly see Deimos isn't talking since no text bubble points at him and his mouth is closed.
The person answering is Callisto. And in case you want more proof, look at his hand, it's a caramel colour. That's Callisto's skin colour. Posted on October 12th, 2011 at 08:16PM

I'm going to have to side with shadow and arthok, sorry Andrew, Tim. You may be the author editor or whatever i forget. But these guys obviously know their sh*t. Posted on October 13th, 2011 at 05:16AMAlexisonfire replied:
I'm with Emerus. They seem pretty legit. Posted on October 14th, 2011 at 09:07AMBunny replied:
You guys are being sarcastic, right? shadow and arthok are wrong. :/ It was obvious to me when I first read the comic that it was Callisto saying "Just got lucky", and andrew even gave a perfect explanation if you didn't catch on in the first place. Posted on October 14th, 2011 at 12:19PMArthok replied:
Oh wow, yeah now I saw it. Dunno why I thought that was another panel. Yeah, there are 2 differente people there... Calisto and Deimos. Sorry for that ^^U Posted on October 14th, 2011 at 06:28PMShadowDragoonFTW replied:
Ohhh, I see it now. I thought Panel 3 was actually two different panels, showing the portal from the front and back. Now I see that it's just the one panel with two guys in it. Silly me. Posted on October 16th, 2011 at 06:45AMSofty said:

Math: Here's a bunch of equations. Let's invent a real-life application for them!Science: Here's stuff that happens in real life. Let's invent equations for them!
Magic: Let's make up some equations and real-life applications for them!
Luck: Throwing math, science, and magic in a big pot and hoping the result leaves you alive long enough to see the awesome result. Posted on October 12th, 2011 at 03:43PM Reply

I'm assuming that this is the portal to Magicka that Solaris mentioned in the last panel of the last page of Chapter 1? Posted on October 12th, 2011 at 07:30PM ReplyRiddle78 said:
And now for something completely different...I'm guessing that when he says "I got lucky" he actually means "Yeah,Aeriel told me." Now,the next question is who has the flint,who has the steel,and did they pack enough arrows and picks to survive out there? Posted on October 13th, 2011 at 02:47AM Reply

(After reading intricate magic formulas vital to the spell and the entire operation years in the making...)Solaris: "How did you come up with them?"
Callisto: "Just got lucky."
Solaris: "...Meh, no big deal." Posted on October 14th, 2011 at 03:15PM Reply

While reading complicated magical spell jargon, Solaris has the sudden urge to eat his finger. Posted on October 14th, 2011 at 03:19PM ReplyDevin-Shaelyc said:
It's obvious that the portal is going to go beyond the veil, to the Magicka dimension that the monster Cyril killed came from........Oh, and all they need now is an iron ingot and a piece of flint and they're good to go XD Posted on October 14th, 2011 at 04:55PM Reply

That last panel with gateway is literally the most terrifying thing I have seen in this comic. The ominous feeling I get from that little black arc chills me to the bone. Posted on October 17th, 2011 at 08:12PM Replydarkonia said:
