Hello readers!
Codex Black's hiatus is still going, but rest assured that I haven't forgotten about it or anything. Still working on it.
In the meantime, here's a silly drawing I made based on what happened in Chapter 7. (You can see it in a larger resolution in my social media like Twitter)
Codex Black readers!
I've already announced this in my social media like Twitter and Facebook, but recently I had a very big issue with my hard drive and solving it has taken a lot of time.
In the end I managed to recover all my files, but checking that everything is in order and doing backups will take a while so, for now, Codex Black will remain in an undefined hiatus.
I'm very ashamed this had to happen such a short time after I had already made a pause due to my health, but life drops these bombs regardless of anything. I trust this won't be long though.
No need to be ashamed of bad luck, life is made up of many unexpected things, like your volcanic peanut is also currently experiencing xD. >>Just say this is a pause for dramatic effect.
Hello!
I'm recovering from my wisdom teeth being extracted this week, so as many of you probably noticed, there won't be an update today. Codex Black will resume next week!
Sorry for the late announcement.
Get well soon, I hope they werent too problematic and didn't leave holes too big. And if, they should close up in a month or two, or at least mine did. ;D
After giving it a lot of thought, I've decided to change Donaji and Itzcacalotl's age within the story. This is something I've been planning to do for a while for various reasons related to the plot and their dynamic together.
In Donaji's case, she's now a year older, making her 15 years old, and her birthday is also one day earlier, on March 21st (this Sunday!), so she was born in a 10-Jaguar day in the Zapotec sacred calendar, Píye, making her official full name to be “Bilachi Donaji”.
In Itzcacalotl's case, he is a year younger, making him 17 years old at the beginning of the story. He was born on a 12-Lizard day in the Tonalpohualli sacred calendar. (His full name would be “Mahtlactliomome Cuetzpalin Itzcacalotl”, but that’s just too long haha).
I've already updated all comic pages and wiki entries to reflect this new setting. Hopefully this will be the only time I'll change something like this out of the blue.
That's all! Donaji is 15 and Itzcacalotl is 17 now. Keep that in mind when reading the next updates.
Any questions are welcome!
