Tanaka-Of-Rine talks to the Totem General Remiel for the last time

A comic depicting the following scene from Orphan's Path by Aenor-llelo and team. “We can get you out of this,” the Totem whispers. “Maybe next time, old friend,” Tanaka sadly concedes. “But not today. I can’t let you go down with me.” “ No one has to go down!” the Totem begs. “We can just- we can just leave-” “You can’t,” Tanaka interrupts, hand tightening around his knife. “You can’t. Do you even realize the changes you’re making around here? What you’ve been doing for your people? If you leave, or- or you get lumped in with me, that- all that progress is gone. And I can’t be the one who destroys that.”
A comic depicting the following scene from Orphan's Path by Aenor-llelo and team. 2/2. “And you don’t have to be.” The Totem steps forward, and Tanaka steps back. “We don’t have to do this. We don’t have to be what they made us. We are not things.” His voice softens. “We are not things.” Tanaka stares at his friend for the last time and laughs. He laughs, and laughs, until his lungs have nothing more to give. “Next time,” he hoarsely mutters, “say it like you believe it.” He hears the soldiers outside. The tent curtains open behind him and he raises his knife, jumping towards Remiel’s shouting form- -<>♥<>- [ Tanaka-of-rine was shot to death by a Totem of Death while trying to escape the Totem General. ]

This whole scene has really stuck in my mind over the past few weeks and I finally got around to sketching it out into comic form. Aenor and the Orphan’s Path team sure do know how to hit you where it hurts.

If you want to read Orphan’s Path you can find it down below, highly recommended if you feel like sobbing over funny block men.
