Audrey’s Magic Nine – #36
This was a sort of bittersweet page for me. Audrey spends most of her childhood in foster-homes, hoping for a family, and wondering about her biological parents. When she does finally learn about her mother, it turns out she is evil. But like most evil villains, Audrey’s mother was not always evil. And it’s this page that Audrey gets a glimpse of what her mother was like before she went to the dark side. Unfortunately, it’s a short lived and limited meeting.
Below are a couple more pages that demonstrate why I’m NOT the kind of artist that can just dive into a page and start drawing. I admire and envy those types. I have friends that can read a script and just start on the final pencils without laying out the page, or doing sketches, or anything. If I could do that, AM9 would have updated 5 days a week instead of three. 🙂
How many pages after this one?
There’s seven pages left.
Dammit magic nine. Dose no one see how bad this plan is?
well, i mean, ethical issues aside, it is working?
I don’t think it’s a bad idea. People may not know who she is because she kept her face covered up. Not to mention, yeah her mom is gone and she doesn’t remember it. This is the best way to give her a clean sweep and make sure her magic is used for good, rather than evil. Yeah it’s not a perfect plan, but it’s one that will work. There was a flaw in her plan to bring her mother back. She said that love would cancel out the bad when bringing her back. The issue is Audrey really has no love for her mother and to her it’s just forced. By bringing back her mother won’t change anything. She had years of problems and her mother may not be able to stand by that. Plus her mother died saving her, does it suck that Corvus caused it, yes. But that is what the monster was for. Nothing is perfect and her mother died to save her. That is what real love is, protecting the ones we love no matter what the cost or who caused it.
I just caught the youngling reference. Bonus points.
Bittersweet. I’m glad you aren’t making this soppy.
