Whew...okay, this was a long one. $25 patrons chose this as a winner tied with Warn/VST a few months back, and then AC and other stuff hit so it kept going along very slowly. I sorely apologize about the wait, I hope it was worth it!

This non-canon little side adventure with Tala-Aska has been fun to do on and off, but I think I'm going to take a break from it for a while now. When stuff has too many possibilities, it ends up taking way too long, as if you can't tell by the sheer amount of alts this one has..I couldn't tell what/when/how and I -really- can NOT just 'wing it'. I really can't. I NEED to know HOW characters ended up in a situation, befores and afters, etc. especially when it has potential to become canon or a side comic down the road, alts are my way of exploring ideas and 'feeling them out' beforehand. Maybe down the road I'll revisit them in a side comic, but that's not priority atm.

For the moment, I just had fun thinking of different times/scenarios they could end up with, and the pre/post climb added to that, so..hence the lot of work and versions. Speaking of which...

I simplified her markings, too. I felt the versions currently in the most recent comic pages were a little TOO complex and busy, and Tala works best as a simpler OC. Her markings should update, but not so much. So I'll go back and tweak those soon.

Enjoy! Thank you all for your patience and support!
