The Autumnal Sisters

Another chapter of my comic "So Light World": The Autumnal Sister.

Keep building my imaginary world.

These are Lisa, the second and wiser of the Autumnal Sisters and Ludo. Ludo likes to tell jokes to her neighbors.

Lara is the eldest and wilder.

Lizzy is the savage guardian of the East Swamp. Bad, bad, bad temper.

Jenni is not going to school today. Nor tomorrow. Nobody will ever tell her what to do again.
