8. Wyrm
It turns out that the shackled ghosts of long-extinct flying wyrms can make for a really handy mass transit system.
7. Good Morning
Attempting portal travel without The Crux is usually a bad idea (unless you’re prepared to put with common side effects such as solid surface materialisation, terminal dimensional inversion and death).
6. A Tricky Enchant
Or possibly possessed farm hands and panciked livestock. Either way: arrows.
5. Who Won?
Introducing Frain, an accomplished ranger, artificer and adventurer. Plus also, Lemrin’s better half.

Introducing Breek, officially the series’ “Best Bird” and recipient of the award “Most Deserving of Food and Attention” (as judged by Breek).

Ah! Meet Skellthas Skellaron. We’ll be seeing quite a bit more of him across the course of the series.

Meet Lemrin Spur!
It’s an exciting day at E-merl with the debut of our brand-new serial, The Occasional Quests of Lemrin Spur. The series is part high fantasy adventure and part slice-of-life peek into the everyday working life of our titular protagonist. I’ve never written something quite like this before and it’s easily the most ambitious webcomic project I’ve attempted illustrating myself. You may also have noticed that it’s a series that likes to scroll – each episode will be delivered here at E-merl in the same scrolling format you’ll find over at Webtoon.
Lemrin will be taking the place of the recently concluded Solid Metal Override. For anyone that missed the final episode, check out the accompanying news post for the series’ final farewell. In other news, The Caption Comics Festival is making it’s triumphant return to Oxford on 16th to 17th August! In years past Caption sat at the heart of the UK comics scene so it’s great to see it making a return. I will of course be there, checking out all the great comics on offer, speaking on a Webcomic panel and plugging our new MA in Digital Comics. Do say hello if you’re in the neighbourhood.
