Almanac – The Enlightened Studies (part 1)
May 10th, 2013After Wednesday’s page, I wasn’t sure if you all would want to read more about Giavere’s Twelve Revelations, but here is part 1 of the Enlightened Studies. This entry covers the first three revelations of Grammar, Rhetoric, and Logic. These are the foundation of all the Enlightened Studies and almost every child in Saronne learns them under the tutelage of the Seers of Giavere.
You may notice a similarity between the Enlightened Studies and the Liberal Arts. I was pondering if I should just go with Liberal Arts or the Latin version of Artes Liberales. If you trace it back to Latin, it translates to “the pursuits of the free” for these were the skills known by all free men and women in Rome and were considered essential for you to be a functioning citizen. It was what separated them from the slaves who had no education.

May 7th, 2013A manitou has more senses than a human. They see things that mortals can’t. Sometimes it’s a curse. Behold Giavere in all her glory on Chapter 6 Page 24.

May 5th, 2013The light is passed on from one colonist to the other, but Snow-by-Night sees something that is causing her some alarm on Chapter 6 Page 23.
I can’t really show you a preview from Wednesday’s page without ruining the surprise, so the vote incentive is the sketches that Brittany did when designing the vestments for the clergy of Giavere. To see the sketches, please vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics.
Oh, I just got official notice from the USPTO. They’ve approved our trademark application. So Snow by Night is now a registered trademark. Woo hoo!
Almanac – Thérèse de Varennes
May 2nd, 2013This week’s Almanac entry is Thérèse de Varennes, the Oracle of Giavere. As the high priestess at the temple in town, she’s the highest ranking cleric in town. She’s a fairly recent arrival in Sherbourg and was brought her by the express will of Giavere. She’s also as blind as a bat. Don’t worry, Giavere gives her seers second sight so they’re not bumping into things and causing fires.
We got another review! This time by ComicSpectrum. We did pretty well – 4 out 5. Someday I’m going to have to figure out how to get to a 5/5. On a different note, Snow by Night now has a tumblr account! Another artist recommended that we get on tumblr a year ago. It took a year, but we finally got around to it.
