Author's Notes:
Jason, the oldest, crookediest old salt from the sea. And Piper, the eternal shitchild.
You know what goes next: thank you Zaukodar for lending me Callie, a Patron cameo! And, honestly, thank you to my husband for letting me use his character Jason as well. :3
Meanwhile, did you guys know that I've been commissioning bonus comics from other artists for Tamberlane? These comics are written by me and fully canon, exploring more of the world, characters, and lore of the universe. One new 5-page comic is released a month for $5+ patrons -- and $5+ patrons get to suggest and vote on the comic subjects too!
All this to say, there's a new comic coming down the pipe on November 5th from IzzySqueakzy of Mothorial! It's called "Heart Questions" and it's all about Briar gathering the courage to ask someone out on a date! Just be pledging at $5 or more on November 5th and you'll get the comic delivered to your messages! And next month, Ainsley deals with their seasonal depression while hunting for Wulfnacht gifts!
And in addition, Foxglove Comics (of which Tamberlane is a part!) did a cross-over collaboration comic for Halloween! Currently it's available for all of our collective patrons (Tamberlane, Tales of Kalzeria, Mothorial, and Laz Jones and the Mayfield Regulators) but it'll be released to the public on Halloween. Enjoy the spooks!
And if you're at all interested, join the Foxglove Comics Discord! It's full of creative folks and friendly readers, coming together to make a supportive space. Hope to see you there!
Whew. That was a lot of typing. Thanks for reading! ;3
Tamberlane Books Now Available!
You can pick up the Arc 1 Omnibus and all 4 remastered softcovers here!!
Now, some notes:
We do not guarantee that the physical books will arrive in time for Christmas.
They will not be shipped until the Kickstarter and Backerkit is finished being fulfilled. We expect that will be mid-December, but as White Squirrel will go on holiday starting December 19th, it might not be until January next year.
Prefer your comics digital? Then the PDF versions of all of the above are for you! You can find those here, but they ALSO come free with purchase of the physical versions!
GPSR and Canada Shipping Complications
Unfortunately, I have some rough news: EU and Northern Ireland residents have until December 19th, 5:00pm PST to place orders in the shop. After that, due to new regulation, we will be unable to sell you fine folks anything (even digital files!) for the foreseeable future. Any order placed before that deadline will be fulfilled, even if it has to be fulfilled early next year. We hope to be able to change this eventually, but for now, we do what we must.
The Canadian Postal strike, meanwhile, means that we will hold any Canadian order that's using USPS or Asendia until the strike is done. UPS, Fed-Ex, and DHL are still active and available shipping options, however!
For more information about this, holiday deadlines, and additional shipping information, please see this post.
New TfT Released!
At long last, the promised Walter/Tess short comic, Just Across the River, drawn by Minty Messerly, is now released! Buy it here!
Patreon Birthday Sale
It's my birthday this month!! Until December 14th, 8:35am PST, all new monthly subscriptions to the Tamberlane Patreon are 15% off!! Just use code EA527 at checkout!
(Yeah, I know the time choice is, uh, weird; I messed up and can't fix it :'D oh well??)
That's everything I have for you today, folks! I am sure there are going to be a dozen hiccups that spring up in the next couple of days, but hey, we do what we can.
🎄 Happy holidays and enjoy! 🎄
Transcript
JASON: Listen to Belfry. She'd know better than some old saltfur how the Treehollow Council functions.
BELFRY: Jason, you're 30.
JASON: My point stands.
JASON: I just mean for you to be cautious.
JASON: In the other places I've sailed, That Place is nothing to trifle with.
JASON: And in my experience?
JASON: Councils and authorities always lean heavy-handed on the subject.
JASON: Ah, but don't let me frighten you. I'm sure it will turn out alright-
[SFX: PLAP]
JASON: PIPER!!
PIPER: SORRY, DAD!!
[OUTDATED]
JASON: Hör auf Belfry. Sie wird besser wissen, wie der Stadtrat von Treehollow funktioniert, als ich alter Seebär.
BELFRY: Jason, du bist erst 30.
JASON: Meine Aussage bleibt die selbe.
JASON: Ich mein nur, du solltest vorsichtig sein.
JASON: In den Orten, die ich besucht habe, ist dieser Ort nicht zu unterschätzen.
JASON: Und meiner Erfahrung nach?
JASON: Räte und Autoritäten sind bei diesen Themen selten nachgiebig.
JASON: Ah, aber ich will euch keine Angst machen. Ich bin mir sicher, es wird gut werden--
SFX: PLAP
JASON: PIPER!!
PIPER: SORRY, DAD!!
JASON : Écoute Belfry. Elle sait mieux qu'une vieille fourrure grise comment fonctionne le Conseil de Treehollow.
BELFRY : Jason, tu as 30 ans.
JASON : Mon argument est valable.
JASON : Je veux juste te dire d'être prudente.
JASON : Dans les autres lieux où j'ai navigué, Cet Endroit n'est pas une plaisanterie.
JASON : Et d'après mon expérience ?
JASON : Les conseils et les autorités ont toujours une tendance à avoir la main lourde sur le sujet.
JASON : Ah, mais ne me laisse pas t'effrayer. Je suis sûr que tout se passera bien-
[SFX : PLAP]
JASON : PIPER !!
PIPER : Désolé, papa !!
JASON: Escuta a Belfry. Ela saberia melhor que algum lobo do mar sobre como o Conselho de Treehollow funciona.
BELFRY: Jason, você tem 30 anos.
JASON: Meu ponto continua válido.
JASON: Eu só quero fizer pra você tomar cuidado.
JASON: Nos outros lugares pra que eu naveguei, Aquele Lugar não é uma coisa pra se brincar.
JASON: E na minha experiência?
JASON: Conselhos e autoridades sempre se inclinam a serem pesados no assunto.
JASON: Ah, mas não deixe eu te assustar. Eu tenho certeza que vai ficar tudo bem--
SFX: PLAP
JASON: PIPER!!
PIPER: DESCULPA, PAI!!
ДЖЕЙСОН: Слухай Белфрі. Вона краще за якогось старого солончака знала б, як працює Рада Трихоллоу.
БЕЛФРІ: Джейсоне, тобі 30.
ДЖЕЙСОН: Я все ще при своїй думці.
ДЖЕЙСОН: Я просто хочу, щоб ти була обережною.
ДЖЕЙСОН: В інших місцях, де я плавав, То місце — це не те, чим можна гратися.
ДЖЕЙСОН: А з мого досвіду?
ДЖЕЙСОН: Ради та органи влади завжди сміливо спираються на цю тему.
ДЖЕЙСОН: Ах, але не дозволяй мені тебе лякати. Я впевнений, що все буде добре -
[SFX: ПУФ]
ДЖЕЙСОН: ПІПЕРЕ!!!
ПІПЕР: ВИБАЧ, ТАТО!!!
JASON: תקשיבי לבלפרי. היא יודעת יותר טוב מחתול יורד ים מזדקן כמוני איך המועצה של טריהולו פועלת.
BELFRY: ג׳ייסון, אתה בן 30.
JASON: הבנת ת׳רעיון.
JASON: אני רק מתכוון שכדאי שתהיי זהירה.
JASON: במקומות האחרים שהפלגתי אליהם, אסור לזלזל במקום הזה.
JASON: ומהניסיון שלי?
JASON: המועצות והרשויות תמיד מתייחסות לנושא הזה במלוא החומרה.
JASON: אה, אבל אל תתני לי להפחיד אותך. אני בטוח שהכל יהיה בסדר גמור-
[SFX: פלאפ]
JASON: פייפר!!
PIPER: סליחה, אבא!!
