New Post: Legacy of The Fool-Chapter 1 Cover 15 Dec 2024 8:00 PM (10 months ago)

January is quickly approaching! I hope you guys are all ready! I know we're excited on this end. But either way! Here's the cover.


For now, I'm thinking we're going to be starting off with a comic a week, posting on Mondays. Patreon will get the pages one week ahead of site publishing here. Any support we get through the patreon itself will be used to pay Sabrena and myself, as well as maintain the site, domain, and such.

You can join the Patreon Here!

Don't forget to join the Discord, as well. The comic will be cross-shared there to the discord forum for discussions, and you can interact with us as well! Here!

See you there, guys!
Keira

New Post: Archive Site 12 Nov 2024 8:00 PM (11 months ago)

Since it's likely this site will be going down in the very near future, I wanted to take a moment to direct everyone to the archive site, that way you can still access the old comic.

https://mysteriesofthearcana.pages.dev/

Thank you very much to the wonderful Aleena for getting this situated.

Meanwhile, don't forget to head on over to the new comic site! https://legacyofthefool.com and sign up, drop a comment, bookmark the place, or join our discord!

Thinks are trucking along at a decent pace, and I look forward to January's launch!

New Post: A Hiccup, But Still Here! 21 Oct 2024 8:00 PM (12 months ago)

So, I took last week to move my computer and assorted hardware over into the spare room, and get all of my setup out of the dining area of the house. In the course of this little adventure, my tablet died.

Lo and behold, a long time fan and supporter came to my aide and I am back to work on a brand new Wacom Cintiq 16. I'm loving it so far.

Now, onto the new art:
This is Devon, our human main character. I won't say much, but they do, of course, hail from our world, the Hierophant. Our story will, much in how the original comic chronicled Theresa's journey, follow Devon and all the events and adventures that await!

Don't forget to check out the new site: Legacy of The Fool

And swing by the discord, it's awfully quiet! https://discord.gg/eEhX57MatG

Regards,

Keira

New Post: Discord Huzzah! 15 Oct 2024 8:00 PM (last year)

I went ahead and put together a rather simple discord server for people looking to hang out, and get a bit of a front row seat to things, and a hand in how our social aspects develop.

You guys are awesome, and I appreciate each of you, so make sure to drop on by, grab some roles, and popcorn, and don’t be afraid to talk to me over there!

New Post: New Site Stuff and What's Coming 13 Oct 2024 8:00 PM (last year)

So, I spent a little bit of time talking with J the other evening, and it seems he is considering shutting this space down. I get it, honestly, he's the one who has been paying for the domain name here, and all that.

Alongside that, I'm working on getting together an archive/backup of the comic here, over on the new site. For those of you who may have missed it in the last post, that link is https://legacyofthefool.com.

The site is still under construction, but I've gotten a lot of work done there. I'll be removing my "test" posts and continue my thoughts and previews over there as well.

I know the captcha here is broken, I tried to ping JD about it, but it's been a long time, so, who knows, but everything for discourse is up over at the new site.

I forgot how much legwork went into setting up a site from jump, but I've got all the foundation set.

Now, about the new preview image!

Meet River Gryph. No, he's not our main character, but he is Alyx's boyfriend, and yes, he's a femboy.
I wanted to embrace some non-conventional character designs and such for this new story, and while it's not the sole focus, I do intend to also dance back in time for a side story on how Alyx and River meet.

River is a Key, Alyx is not. I'll let you all mull over that one.

Until next post!

New Post: A Peek 10 Oct 2024 8:00 PM (last year)

Alright, so, I've been hard at work, getting the foundations laid for what's coming.

I have to admit, this has had me more energized than I've been in quite a while. This has, in a lot of ways, felt like coming home.

The first chapter is written, with Sabrena working hard on chapter 2.

All that being said, meet Alyx. Alyx is an AFAB nonbinary demihuman. They bear characteristics of all three parents. Those parents being Theresa, Chrys, and William. Theresa doesn't mind Alyx not bearing her surname. After all, Smith is a bit generic, isn't it? While you guys are waiting patiently, if you want a peek under the hood, pop on over to the new website. In preparation for all of this, it was decided to tell this new story on its own website, so as to not confuse readers who may stumble upon the archive here. While I hope to resume this story with J at some future point, his life as a successful TTRPG writer has definitely taken that off the table for now.

I will be using this space to give you guys some introductions to the new cast in preparation for the comic launch in January. In the meantime, along with the website, I have also launched a Patreon. Why the early launch you may ask? Because I am passionate about what Sabrena and I have planned, I've already invested not just time, but a bit of money into this endeavor, and while we're preparing to launch, I figured having a space to showcase some of what's to come, and attempt to get a little bit of a cushion for the initial finances would not be amiss.

I will be posting a few more images over the coming days, giving you some peeks at updated looks and new characters.

Until next post,

Keira W.

New Post: It's Been a While 1 Oct 2024 8:00 PM (last year)

I'm not sure how many of you lovely folks out there still visit the site, but it's been 5 years since Mysteries of the Arcana went on hiatus.

Unfortunately, with J's busy schedule, there's no telling when we'll find time to finish out what we were working on.

A lot of big things have happened to me, personally, since then. In late 2020 I came out as transgender, so hi again everyone! I'm Keira, the artist formerly known as Keith W. I've moved across the country, and life has had its ups and downs.

The other day, I pinned down J long enough to have a chat about something that's been ticking around in my noggin for a while, and got his blessing and permission to keep the site going, and tell a new story, using the world, characters, and settings that we established with Mysteries of the Arcana over its run.

To be clear, this is not going to be a one-shot or short story, this is a whole new arena of stories revolving around some new characters. But fear not! There will be more than a few familiar faces!

To me, MotA has always been,at its core, a story about love, growth, and self-discovery, and those themes are what I want to stick to, and I have some stories of my own that I want to tell that follow those themes, but will take us all to new places, and you will meet new faces to bring the story to life.

This comic was my first big foray into the world of comic creation, and I've worked on a lot of projects since, but this place always feels like home. I am glad to be returning to it, even if it's not the way I'd originally planned.

I am working with a long-time fan and writer, Sabrena Pattat, on this, to help bring this vision to life. We're in the early writing and planning stages, so we aren't looking to drop the first chapter just yet, but we are spitballing for around the start of 2025.

Thank you all for all the years of love and support, and I look forward to where we go from here.

Keira W.

New Post: And We're Back! 12 Aug 2018 8:00 PM (7 years ago)

Sorry for the delay, guys. Some life stuff happened that drew me away for a bit, and took a large portion of my focus.

I do hope patience is paying off, now that we've seen the big reveal of our baddie. So! It seems perhaps, there's definitely more to this pawnbroker than initially visible. Now, the question is...what shall we see with William's predicament?

New Post: Ultimatum Warrior 29 Jul 2018 8:00 PM (7 years ago)

So, at least William is trying to be considerate and practical, since yeah, it's not really his amulet to give.

Now that the gauntlet has been tossed, I guess William has to make his decision, quickly.

New Post: The Cost of Doing Business 25 Jul 2018 8:00 PM (7 years ago)

Seems the Pawnbroker isn't just a pretty face, and knew precisely what William had when he walked in.

The question now is whether or not William's willing to part with the amulet Chrys gave to him, and if the price he's being asked to give, is worth what he's been looking for.

We'll just have to see, won't we?

New Post: Price and Consequence 18 Jul 2018 8:00 PM (7 years ago)

So, it does seem that William may have a few friends and "friends" out in the Arcana, and at least one with a big mouth, no?

We'll just have to see if the price is something agreeable.

New Post: Delay, Oop 11 Jul 2018 8:00 PM (7 years ago)

So, sorry for the little delay here. Depression attacked, and I managed to work my way around it. I wanted to do more with this page, but honestly, adding extra panels just seemed to diminish the idea I wanted to put forward with this image, showing that there's definitely much more than meets the eye to our pawnbroker.

New Post: Spider and Fly 27 Jun 2018 8:00 PM (7 years ago)

So, when I started this out, I knew it was going to be a mini-quest, but I am curious what you guys think? Specifically, should this end on a serious note, or something more comedic and fun?

Let me know in the comments!

New Post: Identity Crisis 24 Jun 2018 8:00 PM (7 years ago)

So, it seems our mysterious proprietor has a few tricks of his own up his sleeve, and is definitely more than just a pawn shop owner, since he can see William's true form.

As for questions, if you recall, anyone has the potential to be a Key, so perhaps that's what's going on here? Time will tell!
