Episode 2: Journey to the Heart of the Sun

Season 1, Episode 2: Journey to the heart of the sun

Siberia Comic

Art by P. Emerson Williams and James Curcio, produced for the Tales From When I Had A Face limited edition.

We are all just costumes death wears for a season.

The Summer Tree begins in earnest with Gran's fantastic story of escaping the terror of Siberia in the early 1900s and passing through a gate to another world. The focus of her tale to come will be on her journey through this realm, the characters she meets, and the trials they face as they are drawn into its politics, poetry, and revolution.

Her adventure begins in a dimly lit cell, where she meets Elena, a young girl with a mysterious past. Their uneasy alliance grows with the arrival of Nyssa, a girl who seems to be without a history. The cramped confines of their cell “at the heart of the sun” set the stage for future connections and conflicts.

Perhaps you've been having prophetic dreams that won't stop, or hear the spirits of the trees demanding a blood sacrifice every time you leave your apartment. But those are just dreams... right?

A mythpunk universe combining elements of speculative fiction, magical realism, fantasy and near-future noir.

Many Cycles begin in a world much like our own, with characters who know little of the world beyond their waking lives. Gradually, the crack opens between the mundane and the fantastic, the wondrous and the horrific, the past and the future.
