That last panel seems a bit ominous, doesn't it?

It has been a while so let me reintroduce the poor character being captured in the comic above. That is the Ace of Cups, first introduced here and last seen here. I'm sure you can guess exactly where the Ace of Cups has been trapped.

The chapter 5 Kickstarter is going strong. We're at $2,768 out of $4,100. That's 67% funded with 21 days left to go.

Speaking of the Kickstarter, I've got some exciting news! Two of the rewards we'll be giving out are digital trade copies of chapters 1 and 2. I'm pleased and proud to announce that Ursula Vernon, creator of the Hugo Award winning Digger and the very popular Dragonbreath series will be writing the forward for the digital trade copy of Mysteries of the Arcana chapter 1: Heavens and Earths. I'm also pleased and proud to announce that Howie Noel, creator of Tara Normal and official cartoonist for the Atlantic Paranormal Society (aka the Ghost Hunters guys) will be writing the forward for the digital trade copy of Mysteries of the Arcana chapter 2: All the Way Down.

The digital trades are available as rewards in the Kickstarter now but will also be for sale after the Kickstarter is over.

See everyone on Monday!

Just to be picky: Turtles (like most reptiles) have three-chambered hearts.

Wow, talk about getting to the heart of the matter! *runs away from the anti-pun barrage*

Gunsolo
 


And so, the Ace of Cups was imprisoned at the heart of his world. Smile

The last panel is indeed quite ominous. Perhaps the Corrupter wants to rule all the worlds, and has found another "solution" for his brethren.

Sorry, but I went and ruined your ~ 2/3 funding. You're now up to 69% Smile

Fairportfan : Ordinary turtles from the Hierophant do, of course. Who knows what giant floating space turtles have. Smile


Adamas, your pun makes me smile.

Gunsolo, your insight and ability to ask just the right question about what comes next continues to astound me. Maybe you should be writing MotA. Smile

David, that was a wonderful gift to wake up to. Thank you!
Gunsolo
 


Haha, thanks but though I'm pretty good at guessing plot, I have no experience writing it. Far better to leave it in your capable hands. Smile


JD
 


Well, thanks to Gunsolo's insight now we know what to expect, don't we? Kinda, sorta... I'm not really sure, but if I was a corrupter I'd want to own it all... muahahahaha! Warning *you need an evil laugh smiley*
I'm so confused.
Anyway, I backed what I could, J. Sorry it isn't more, I'd push you over if I could.

JD, there wouldn't be a Mysteries of the Arcana without you. I can't overstate how important the contributions you have made are. Thank you for backing us all these years.
