"you and your books," misha whines, "trust me! i would never choose something that might hurt you!" but azha doesn’t relent. while yes, he does know that misha will never intentionally hurt him, they are still lacking in experience when it comes to the forest clan’s woods! so azha stares at misha with that particular expression that he saves for moments just like these; when misha is acting especially petulant with him, despite all of azha’s attempts to help misha understand why he is acting this way. "let me check my books," he insists. he turns away from misha so that he can properly dig through his backpack. it doesn’t take too long for azha to find the book that he was searching for. he thumbs through the pages quickly, stubbornly ignoring how misha wails in the background, until he eventually flips to the right page. he skims the words quickly - someone has drawn multiple lines beneath the word poisonous. the rest of the paragraph delves into how the mushroom is poisonous to most - if not all - demons, but that certain beasts were able to consume it with no issues. it’s a strange phenomenon, and while azha might want to look into it further, for now, he needs to tell misha about his findings. "misha, it’s—!" but before he can finish speaking, there’s a thunk! from somewhere behind azha. immediately, he knows that it’s the sound of the mushroom dropping into the pot. azha can feel the way his heart sinks along with the forage as it hits the bottom of the cooking utensil, thudding against it. "—poisonous." azha finishes his warning with a sharp exhale. a hand slides down his face in frustration. but the anger that has begun to bubble up in azha’s chest fades as soon as he catches misha’s expression. her eyes are wide, fraught with guilt, as she lowers herself further onto the ground. "i...i just thought..."
when the sun finally disappears beneath the horizon, azha can only let out a sigh of relief. today has been absolutely awful. tomorrow will bring with it new opportunities, he promises himself, but such a meager attempt to reassure himself does nothing to satisfy the lingering doubt that has been haunting azha all day. despite azha’s endless attempts at optimism - that he truly was ready to travel outside of the moon clan’s borders and experience more of the world than what his home alone could offer his studies - worry continues to churn over and over again in azha’s stomach. it’s an uncomfortable feeling, one that azha still hasn’t quite grown familiar with yet considering it has only been two moons since he left home. if only he knew back then how difficult this all would be - ack, especially today! first, there was the fact that azha nearly lost his favorite cooking pot. though the river was calm enough when azha first sunk the pot into the water, hoping to scrub it clean of last night’s meal, the rapids suddenly sped up, tearing the cooking utensil from azha’s hands. luckily, misha was quick to re-summon the pot back into her magical storage dimension before the river stole it away, but if it wasn’t for her intervention, it would’ve been lost! and this was before the sun even began its ascent into the sky! then, azha had gotten into a fight with some strange, boar-like creature. it was clear that the beast was familiar with the terrain, but azha was absolutely not; no matter how fast azha swung, the boar was always faster, able to navigate the tangling roots beneath its hooves with an uncanny ease. it took nearly all of azha’s focus not to trip, and luckily, the beast eventually grew bored of the hunt and left them alone.
"Yeah," came Sliv’s voice through the door, "just need a few more moments to get more dried off...where's the hair dryer again?" "In the closet, third shelf." A few thuds and the sound of rummaging around lead to a 'bonk' noise, as if the dryer landed on something hollow. "Are... are you good in there, Sliv?" Curly was concerned since she could just fly up to the shelf and grab it. "Yeah," Sliv replied, "it just landed on my head. I might need help blasting myself with this tho..." "I'll be there in a moment." Curly closed her notebook and locked it. No need for Sliv to read the fanfic she was writing, right? The first thing she saw upon opening the door were all of the towels and cleaning supplies that Sliv was using to try and clean up on the floor. The second was the sopping wet looking thing that was still dripping from the bath known as Sliv. Curly wordlessly picks up the hair dryer and blasts Sliv in the face with it for a second. "You know you could have flown up to get this, right?" "I... may have... perhaps... forgotten a little bit..." Curly let out a sigh saying, "We can clean this in a moment, you should dry off fully first," before turning the dryer on full blast. It wasn't long before the room was clean again and Sliv was dried off, her fur poofed out and making her look more like a red and orange cotton ball.
Sliv’s slumber was disrupted by the sound of Curly rummaging through the closet for something. They rolled over in their hammock to get a better look into it and saw Curly comparing several different outfits in a mirror. Without even looking at Sliv, she asked, "Which do you think looks better for my date tonight?" Sliv, rapidly escaping the early wake up haze, nearly fell out of their hammock in excitement for getting to finally choose an outfit. "THE BLUE ONE!" Curly nodded. "So that one goes into the closet again, then." "Huh?" Sliv was confused now. "Sliv, buddy, your taste in venues for work are top-tier, but there's a very good reason I never listen to your fashion advice." Curly said in a flat, matter-of-fact tone. "I can dress myself! Watch this!" They said before flying over to a box labeled ‘Sliv’s comfy clothes’ and jumping in. A few moments later, they reemerged from the box with the confidence that their outfit was the best ever. Curly stood there and stared at the kaleidoscope of an outfit that Sliv wore with concern and confusion. "You... you do realize that you're wearing a skirt as a top and one of your mittens is a sock right...?" "Uhhh..." Sliv stood there awkwardly for a moment. "Wait... that's one of my socks as well, I've been looking for that for weeks!" Curly picked up Sliv to look over the outfit that would be better suited as an art gallery piece than wearable attire.
To my dear friend Chris I never been good at expressing myself and even when I do, I feel I often fault to convey how important someone is for me, hopefully I can remedy some of that through this letter and that it be a reminder whenever I fail to open my heart again. Back at the time of PMDE at DeviantArt, I would find many artist whom I would grow to respect a great deal, because of that I would sought to get closer to them, you were one of those artists. Of course back then I wasn't very good at it, still am not, because of that my way of interacting with people is faulty, awkward, intrusive I fear sometimes, yet, you never pushed me away I will always be whole-heartedly thankful for that Another thing that happened that I vividly remember was when we exchanged, at the time I misinterpred that as you welcoming more conversation, when it was actually to get info to see a bookmark, one that I am sad it never arrived. Alas, you have said that you were amazed that I put up with you at the time, but the few times we talked was still enjoyable to me, it was bumpy, but I was at fault too, struggling to communicate with others, still do, but even so you never shut things off and said stop sending me messages, never left messages unanswered, even if you don't like who you were at the time, you were still nice! And I'm thankful for it! I wish I had more maturity to fill this letter more, you deserve more appreciation than I give you, I cherish you more than what I feel i properly demonstrate! Please know that I will always and always love you, I will always and always be within your reach and I will always and always wish with all my heart the utmost happiness to you Forever yours, Rafael

An old PS1-style illustration that you would expect to see in the booklet that came with the game. It features a custom logo of Yokoka's Quest, a wood texture, low poly models of Yokoka, Mao and Copycat, and the following text; Directly adapted from the eponymous award-winning comic, Yokoka's Quest is the next big game everybody awaits this Christmas. Taking place in the mysterious world of Cisum, we follow the parallel adventures of Yokoka and her brother Mao, after both run away from the Forest of Betelgeuse. Half-humans, half-demons, the wtwins discover the world they live in through a 3D RPG adventure with a complex yet straight forward magic system, and encounters many vibrant characters, such as the elusive Copycat, or the adorable Misha. Chris Hyacinth Rivers, the author and illustrator of the orignal comic, helped supervised the production, and made many new artwork for the game. Making this a must-have for all fans, who will have to unlock them all through collectables hidden in the whole game. Early review of the game praise the the game design, as well as the magic system not quite the same as in the comic. These changes are understandable to make the game feel good to play. What was especially appreciated was the shapeshift mechanic, allowing specific party memebers to change into different creatures, while also having some character customisation. However, some reviewers spoke of a sometime steep difficulty, especially in the late game plateforming segments. Players will have to persevere in order to accomplish this quest! Yokoka's Quest is set to released late October for 55$. Many parents will have to rush to get a copy for their children. by @HugoTNMilan

A half page illustration of Yfa flying in the forest by apricot, with the following text on the bottom by ClefdeSoll: As Yokoka's Quest was approaching its tenth anniversary (a whole decade! for sure, not all webcomics make it this far( I wondered what to do to mark the occasion despite my busy schedule. Near immediately, a collection of fan works was suggested to help lift some of the burden of preparations off my shoulders. Yokoka's Quest is, and has always been, a labour of love I do by myself. I'm hard-wired to work hard and if it can make even a single person smile, then it feels worth it. Of course, such a generous offer made me touched but also worried. Are you sure? This is going to be a lot of work! But everyone was unflinching about it, happy to give back. Putting together the fruits of that effort feels rather emotional. It's beautiful. Thank you so much to all contributors. And a happy decade of life to Yokoka's Quest! Here's to many more adventures.
