First off, the final prologue page was posted last Thursday. Go back a page if you missed it!
And this Thursday the chapter 1 cover goes up! Yep, two updates this week!
After the last prologue page’s scene, I always envisioned things going black for a few seconds before this Queen song jump-scares you with the Devil’s Trill title reveal XD –

Florian inhaled slowly and deeply in the middle panel and then, of course, exhaled in the last. It was a moment I pictured very well in motion but could only do my best to capture in comic form. It was fun to try though.
Thus ends the prologue!
Next week I may be doing a double update (maybe Monday make that Tuesday, and then Thursday) of two covers, a title cover and then the chapter 1 cover, rather than make you go through two weeks of just cover art updates. I might’ve made ya if they had a lot to look at in them, but they don’t, they’re pretty simple and… graphic designy. XP It’s going to cost me a buffer page, but what the hell, I’m hardly making use of the buffer during downtime anyway…
Hope you all had a nice Halloween. Guess it’s onwards to more holidays!

Guess that was the end of the “song”. XP
I’m taking a break next week. I know it feels like I just took time off, but I didn’t, I just drew something else last week. Sorry, as I’ve said, just may be a thing sometimes. ^_^; And anyway, I need to get some real life stuff done as well, so it’s not just about resting this time.

Have a great Halloween everyone and thanks for reading!
The lady is Florian’s mother, Marguerite. Her name may never actually be brought up in the story though. XP
Will probably be making next week my break time.

Same violin.
I decided to try using more thick lineart at this point but hadn’t quite found a balance yet, so now parts of this are far more BOLD than I like, but the prologue pages have a lot of experimentation going on. XP
A reminder that as with my previous comic, the Patreon is ahead in pages. It’s going into chapter 1 there now!
Hello there! I’m SarahN, who made and completed the ’30s-set vampire horror comic DANIEL, and now this is my second go at horror set in a past era (the Victorian era to be precise), The Devil’s Trill. I’m aiming for this one to be a considerably shorter length but it’s still going to take years again I’m sure, lord help me. 🙄 This prologue is set a few earlier than the main story.
Updates will be weekly, and though this one is being seen on a Monday, I’m considering Tuesday updates, and because I still have permanent arm & hand injuries from my years of comic work, I’ll still be taking at least one week off a month. Frankly I’m also considering to try and make more random art pieces some weeks instead of comic pages in the future to keep my sanity since I’ve been doing just comics nonstop for so long. XP (You’ll find such future pieces usually at my Deviantart or social media pages, which are found in the icons just above and to the right of this blog area, or in the “Links” section. I may or may not make a Gallery section later.) So yeah, just a heads-up that I may update this comic religiously some months and haphazardly others, but whatever I choose to work on at times, I still hope it’s enjoyed by all!
I have a small buffer and will use it during really dead times but I’m also going to try my darndest to save it too. XD Which by the way, patrons are ahead in updates seeing those buffer pages. The buffer may not always remain WAY ahead, but Patreon will always get updates ahead of this main site. FYI I still need to update the Patreon’s main page info, but the tiers’ info are up to date!
Anyway, enough rambling. Hope you all get a kick out of what’s to come in this comic!
