River is a Santaku-made, tachi-class combat doll, who’s come a long way since she was a human soldier. Now her wife Kasu is her Wielder, and River is Kasu’s blade doll. Like the lords and retainers of old, they are One Heart Together.

Onward with my effort to learn comic making! Here’s the first panel of my next one, currently in progress. The idea is to introduce River and Kasu, who featured in my novel “Confluence,” in a concise, visual format.
