"The Death of BarrenClan: Part One"

First blood.

It'll become clear soon, but not all of Defiance is here - there are around 100 members in the group in total, and only about twenty here today. But it seems like a lot to the cats.

Also, Prowl did kill Mallowstar by snapping his neck, but I understand it may not be obvious in the art because I didn't want to look at pictures of broken necks for reference. Regardless he died near instantly.

He did his best.

merry christmas, happy holidays. transfemme and transmasc solidarity always

[start id: two empty hormone vials are side-by-side. estrogen is on the left, and testosterone on the right. they have been repurposed as flower vases containing poinsettias. /end id]

i don’t have much to say here. i actually really hate christmas lol. did you know the poinsettia has indigenous origins? it was taken and appropriated by the first us minister in mexico, who took the cuetlaxochitl name and bastardized it to be named after himself. fitting.

in the Aztec language Nahuatl, the name translates to the "mortal flower that perishes and withers like all that is pure." - i find that more powerful than christmas

"Issue #24: Lost in a Haze"

Oh! What's that? Another POV? Yes, it's true! Rainhaze gets his turn in the narration. It was a lot of fun to explore his mind, though it's easy to over-write. Rainhaze is very rambly.

I also hope you enjoy getting a peek into Defiance's inner workings. I will elaborate a bit more on the branch system and hierarchy in some bonus posts eventually, but there's nothing outside the comic that's required for understanding it simply by reading the issues.

Since Rainhaze jumps around in time a lot via his scattered mental state, for ease of reading I'll just state that pages 5 & 6 take place directly after the end of Issue 24, i.e. when Rainhaze killed the fox and Ranger confronted him.
