Description
Well, I guess it's time to get this started. Pages will come next week, as I'm trying to create a bit of a buffer (for the first time ever I don't actually have some 50+ pages lying around waiting for colour).Some less fun news though. Not relevant right now, but I feel like it's only fair to give you a heads up. And I did mention it in an earlier comment but I was a bit vague and hadn't completely made up my mind yet.
I know some of you will probably be disappointed - and for that I am truly sorry. But I will most likely end this comic after this arc. I suppose it shouldn't come to too much of a surprise considering the irregular update schedule - but that's what happens when the artist lose all inspiration and most of their motivation. Honestly - if it wasn't for you readers I would have ended it a long time ago. I want to give the comic (and you) a somewhat satisfying conclusion, but I know it will be impossible for me to force myself to draw it the very 'end'. It would take years and my lack of inspiration would hurt the quality of the comic itself - both art and writing wise (I am honestly feeling this happening right now). Now, the last thing anyone wants is a story becoming an uninspired drag that just keeps going with no soul or thought whatsoever.
But I have had this arc planned out for years and I know what to draw so I feel like I could make it work well enough. Things are gonna go down and things will be tied up enough for, what I consider, an all right ending. Again, I am sorry. But I have been considering this for a long time and I know it will be the best thing to do, both for me and the comic. Also, this arc isn't gonna end any day soon. Maybe in a year or so, if I work hard enough.
Again, thanks for sticking by and leaving comments and the like – wouldn't have come this far without you.

aww.. while I want more content as any art starving fans, What I like the most about "it's a hard life" is the story and characterization.
Compared to them the actual gameplay and game story are far overshadowed.
I am looking forward to what will happen to this story then ..

Its been an emotional rollercoaster but a delightful ride nonetheless. Thank you for doing your best to see it to an end of sorts (and rescuing Robin to me is enough of a ending for me that they be brought back together).

i see you still have the queen songs theme going on for chapter titles :'D
aww man, i'm glad this will get somewhat of an ending, but it's sad to see it end at all, this was one of the best nuzlockes, if not pokemon comics in general, i've had the pleasure of reading on dA.
how's "there will always be dragons" doing? i check from time to time if there's new updates, i hope you'll continuing working on it, even though you're done with school. the art is beautiful and i greatly enjoy the characters (and dragons. i like dragons)

Yeah, gonna go with them Queen songs until the end! x'D
And I'm sad to admit I've worked even less on my other comic than this one. Would love to get back to it sometime soon. If I can get my life together enough to find the energy.

I'm so happy to hear this will get a proper ending even if it's cut a bit short. That's a lot more than what most of my other favourites have been getting haha ;w;
I look forward to seeing Robin again!

Yeah, I'm sad, but you know - it's better than having no conclusion at all!
One thing I'd like to see though, is for you to post the other ending, the one you'd have given the story if you DID go through with it until the very end. After you post the last chapter, of course, so there are no spoilers.

Sad to hear that we won't see the whole nuzlocke run, but an early - but planned - end is better than just a fading into nothingness.

Amazing colors, the lighting looks great!
It's a bit sad to hear that the ending is coming, but it's really cool that you are planning it in advance and working to make it a real ending. It will have been quite a ride!
Looking forward to reading the arc, jailbreak is an infinite source of marvels.

hey! its great to know that you are attempting to end this comic to the best of your ablility. it will be very sad to see this go, but i do understand where you're coming from. i would be sadder to see this comic end in a cliffhanger with no sign of it being completed. the fact that your going to actually conclude it at all is awesome.
i am looking forward to future updates! good luck :]
