Peculiaris | Fairytale storybook project - part 5: let the investigation begin! @PeculiarisArt | Uploaded February 2021 | Updated October 2024, 36 minutes ago.
So happy to bring you a new installment in our dark little fairytale, and this time - we finally meet our protagonist! Introducing Thorn, fae detaetive. I'll tell you more about him soon, for now, see him start the investigation of Lady J's locket...
Not sure what's going on? There's now a page in my blog where you can find the text of the story with all the pages so far! Visit https://peculiaris.art/blog/a-thorn-story-lady-js-locket to find them.
If you're interested in the making process of the pages, I've made a playlist of all the videos and live streams where I worked on them: youtube.com/playlist?list=PL7033kBwgq0Xbib-fKcWbx-j0_J8l4oww
The text of this episode's pages:
After examining the locket, the tailed one looked up and finally noticed his surroundings. He was in a graveyard, weathered tombstones stood all around him, the moonlight gleaming on their cracked surface.
Before him, where the spirit stood before, was a large but simple looking headstone:
Jane Hallow
Beloved sister, gone before her time.
1887 – 1906
“You’re J. then?” whispered the fairy, crouching before the grave, and he noticed a small wiggle.
“Why hello there, Mr. Worm, how are you this night?”
“mmm…?” the worm wiggled some more “Fine, fine, and who might you be?”
The fairy pulled out a card and laid it near the worm
“I’m Thorn, fae detective, at your service.” He nodded to the worm, who was now wiggling excitedly around the card
“Oh that’s nice! Quality paper an’ all, delicious! murmpf”
“Err… thanks” Thorn said, trying not to laugh “Say, Mr. worm, do you know anything about the lady in this tomb?”
“hmm? Mrpf Lady Jane?” the worm’s voice was muffled from eating the card “sure, sure mrpfrm, Real pretty she was, they say, and delicious too, my grand-grand-grand-grandfather said so. Or was grand-grand-grand-grand-grandfather?... mrumpf can get confusing you know.”
“Right, of course” nodded Thorn politely, trying not to think about the question of Lady J. taste.
“Don’t know much, you know, bit before my time! haharmpf” continued the worm “but ask the oak, he’s an old one, he is, he might remember.”
I hope you're enjoying this little adventure so far! If you have any questions about the making or the story write them in the comments, I'm always happy to hear from you :)
Till next time
