EDIT 5/17/21: I had to reupload the page -- I lightened up the page and added white borders after receiving a few complaints that the night scene was too dark to read. Sorry about that, guys! I'll go easier on the shading in the future.

Oooooof. This page actually got done on time, so I'm sorry it took me so long to actually upload it. See, I've set up a schedule now so that I can roll out two pages a week, and I was trucking along great with this schedule... Until yesterday. Late in the afternoon my family received some very grim and scary news -- my mother was diagnosed with cancer. The good news is that it's only in stage 1, and that it's a very treatable form of cancer -- she has a high chance of survival and will very likely pull through it. Still, cancer is a very scary and real thing, and it took me about two hours after learning the news to start functioning properly again and stop feeling so numb (I kind of felt like a human statue made of lead for a good while). I threw myself into making the page after that, and I used it as a way to take my mind off of things; given that I was already a few hours behind schedule before hearing about the cancer, this meant I was working until past 5:00 AM this morning to finish the page. The reason it's so late to upload, as you might have guessed, is because I spent most of the morning sleeping in and regaining my energy.

So, with all that explained, how do I feel about this page? I'm relatively happy with it, I think. It was obviously a bit rushed, but the natural backgrounds were much easier compared to the architecture seen in the last page. Asethotep herself was fun to draw, and I even added some extra mental monologuing that wasn't even in the original script for this page.

The question is, what's she up to-?
