“Extraction” page 5 seeks a secure hidey hole

Burrow into the new page here:

I know I’ve said this somewhere before, but Razi would be the person bleeding out in the middle of the street after getting hit by a bus, rasping out xer dying words: “I had right of way.”

So yes, yonges do not live in caves and you shouldn’t expect to see one there, but when you do you can be pretty sure it’s a very hungry yonge. This is likely to be a problem for you whether the yonge is supposed to be there or not.

Will our protagonists escape this pickle and/or jam? Is pickle jam even a thing, and if so, why?? Tune in next week for some answers to at least one of those questions!

Cheers,

Dylan

“Extraction” page 4 hits the ground running

Is it possible Razi was wrong about the safety of this endeavor??? Find out here:

[spoilery stuff to follow, so read first, then come back here]

Why yes, the creature our protagonists are currently fleeing from is indeed based partly on the star-nosed mole. This has less to do with wanting to incorporate mole-like characteristics per se, and more to do with making a dangerous animal look extremely ridiculous. Sort of like how a hippo is a killing machine but looks like, y’know, a hippo.

The yonge (for it is called a yonge) does have some mole features, most notably the predation of tasty critters it finds underground. Oops!

Check back next week to find out if it’s snack time.

Don’t be caught off guard! Get eyes on the page right here:

Tune in next week to find out if this is a 4-page story with an abrupt ending, or if our intrepid protagonists start making better life choices.

“Extraction” page 2 expresses some light skepticism

Surely there’s no cause for concern, though. See for yourself:

I’m sure I’ve talked about this before, but to recap: the Pocalo Valley is widely renowned for its advanced medical treatments for all sorts of conditions, including trans medicine. When Razi references hormone treatments, that’s what xe’s talking about.

Also, the last panel is referencing the Valley of the Silk Sky short story “Medicine; Run,” though you don’t need to have read it to follow the events in “Extraction.”

As promised, the Valley of the Silk Sky short story “Extraction” begins today, and runs weekly for the next couple of months. This story originally appeared in black & white in the Monster Journey anthology, and is presented in full color here for the first time.

The first page is to be discovered here:

As far as chronology goes, this story takes place after “Medicine; Run.”

New page next week!
