As Above will be free to read for the first few chapters. I am an independent, disabled artist, so eventually this will require a pay-what-you-can subscription to access (minimum $2/month). This will allow me to post on a schedule while maintaining the quality of art as well as my health, and livelihood.
You can opt-in to subscribe at any time prior to then. The more support I receive, the sooner I can establish and maintain a consistent upload schedule. Each page takes hours of work and I do not have assistants or illustrative editors. I do all of the work myself and every dollar goes directly to me so that I can continue to create this comic.
I know we all have subscription fatigue, but I ask your kind consideration that I am not a corporate entity or team of people. I’m just one person managing this project out of love for this story. If I ever am privileged enough to afford a team, I will announce the good news with all of my readers.
Thank you for your support and interest in reading As Above. I hope to be able to tell this story for years to come.
Sincerely,
HD

The Hermit attempts a spell at Mes’s instruction. It goes well.

Pan meets Mes’s other students and must decide what magic they will learn.
For all his eccentricities, Mes is a stringent teacher.
Pan takes the woman’s advice and asks directly for what they want… with a little breaking and entering on the side.
Pan receives their first lesson on the laws of magic from a lovely woman passing through.
Pan goes to see the most respected diviner in Commons, Lady Tri’Moon, on their quest to learn magic.
