Original Webcomic Manga: The Iron Wizard

[Agent Elrond]

Dark-san: Actually that mask was inspired by the hero of V for Vendetta. I really liked the idea of that creepy, smiling mask, and ran with it.

If you want spoilers for the main villain, and more about the masks, see below. If not, just skip.

Oh yeah, and how come the [spoiler] tags don't work no more?!

The smiling masks with closed eyes are the hallmark of the Prophets, a mysterious group of rebels. Their members range from wizards, magicians, cyborgs, and androids, and are comprised of all the outcasts of the country. Each mask is enchanted, so it attaches automatically to the wearer's face, and becomes like a one-way mirror: to the person wearing it is is transparent, so they can see right through it, giving them excellent range of vision. However to anyone else, it would appear as if they were blind. The mark in the center of the forhead is usually of a token of the member's heritage. The leader of the Prophets, a man named Manigula, has a a spiral on his mask, indicating the flow of time and the theory that everything runs in a spiral: repeating patterns, but moving forward. This spiral was the symbol of an ancient Tijanese Cult also known as the Prophets, and they were the chief rivals of the Children of Infinity, who wear the sign of Infinity (?). The Cult of the Prophets was destroyed over two hundred years ago in a savage Wizard's War that ripped the islands of Tijanis apart, and caused the Children of Infinity to retreat into exile.

And now, onto the comic:

[Dark-San]

[b][size=3] Yes I just finished Chapter 7. However after reading your spoilers, I have more doubts in mind. And hope you would shed light to them.

First what are the Children of Infinity? And what is Rup going to do with the war? Doesn't make any sense to me.

Hah finally the race got to start and is it me or that the new arm that Scar had created for Rup is just too improportional?

[Agent Elrond]

I'm talking about what has happened, not what will... and what that will be... you'll have to wait and see.

(Although if you really wanna talk spoilers we should probably do it in PMs. ^^)

[Dark-San]

[b][size=3] Sorry sis, it seems like my inquisitiveness get the better of me. Anywayz, I will try to go with the flow of the manga instead of jumping the gun. :p

[Agent Elrond]

Heh, that's okay! I feel lucky to know what's going to happen.

Anyway: Sorry to be the bringer of slightly not fun news, but the posting of Chapter Eight will have to be delayed a week, becuase Tamahn/ralts_mudkip/my bro/dude what does the cool inking had to send his tablet pen back to the manufacturer's to be fixed, and this has caused us to fall behind shedule somewhat.

Anyway, after a short break we're up and rolling again, and Chapter Eight should be ready to post by January 19th, 2006.

Hope everyone has a good New Year's Eve!

[Agent Elrond]

Chapter Eight is ready, albe it a bit early. (Not that that's a bad thing, is it?) Anyway, enjoy. Chapter Nine should be posted February 16th, the almighty art lords willing.
