Production notes

Every story starts as a cast and a setting. Those are drawn once, then used as reference for every picture in the story, so the characters stay themselves from beginning to end.

The cast

Sounds deep and steady.

Model sheet for Mira

Mira the clever squire

Sounds bright and quick.

Model sheet for Kurt

Kurt the grizzled guard

A lively medieval castle bustling with knights and adventure.

A sprawling medieval stone castle with high walls, tall towers, and narrow windows. The courtyard bustles with vibrant banners fluttering in the breeze, dappled sunlight casting sharp shadows onto cobbled streets. Inside, wooden beams and flickering torchlight create a warm, adventurous atmosphere. The castle is surrounded by lush green forests under a clear blue sky.
