Description
Part 1 - Gathering Courage - HerePart 2 - Shattering Doubts - [link]
Part 3 - The Sky Suspended - [link]
Part 4 - Alis Volat Propriis - [link]
PROGRESS YEAH~~~
So uh, some of this miiiiight not make sense unless you've been keeping up with Gracidea's BFOI journey, especially last round, which was full of DRAMA and SUSPENSE :U
Gracidea's R8 is here: [link] but Will's R8 might also shed some light on things: [link]
I think this is the...3rd time I've brought up the Mareep flashback herp. The other two flashbacks are referring to Round 6 [link] and Round 7 [link] respectively.
If it's hard to tell what Artie's holding, it's the fabulous Skarmurai armor [link]
If anyone is wondering why Triss and Luna can talk, Luna is a psychic type, and is thus using telepathy while Triss is one of the few species of Pokemon capable of using Aura, which includes communicating by using it. She is also the most fluffy and cuddly pokemon amg Everyone should have a Togekiss, seriously /;v;
SO YEAH, INSPIRATIONAL SPEECHES OVER, TIME TO KICK ASS 8U/

Yes, you have a 12.5% chance for a female.

Oh Grace, this first part is making me so desperately need more of this adventure! So much heart-warming encouragement must only be met with equally fiery battles and passion, so I can't wait to see how Grace's story continues to unfold, I very much look forward to it!

More will come... eventually. My drive to finish is unflinching ifthatmakessenseherp

This is looking fantastic, and you're really working your medium to its full potential here. Love the idea of the brown base for the flashback, it really sets it out. Again, best of luck with this round

Is it just me or do the colors look a lot more... colorful than before? No matter what you did, it looks good, so keep it up! Beside that, I somewhat like how the panels look in general... those grey-inked, slightly shaky lines have something. (Yeah, I love details like that, you may laugh now.) xD
I really wish to have such a fluffy Togekiss as well! So cuddly~ <3<3<3
Still... since everyone is so in awe, I would like to point something out here, too.
That would be... meh... another flashback with that cursed mareep. I have a major deja vu here. Your inspirational speeches are wonderful, but it starts to feel a bit repetitive, to be honest. And Grace being insecure or afraid of something isn't really news either. Dunno, maybe it's just me. Or the Mareep. Can't tell. xD
Sorry, this isn't meant to sound rude or anything, I still love your entries, it's just something I started to notice.
But beside that, everything is executed well (as always, I may add, you know I'm a bit jealous of you tradi color skills), and I'm really looking forward to this! *forces Rhea to give her a hug as well* Go Grace, go! <3

Hmm you are not the first to say that. I MUST BE DOING SOMETHING RIGHT 8u and yee, I enjoy those lines too c8
Mmmm true, but each round is also pretty spaced out from the others and not everyone follows the story as closely as the both of us =u= Just wanted to drive the point home in the inspiration speech~ I WON'T MENTION THAT DARNED MAREEP AGAIN :U
CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT YOU DO FOR R9~~~~
pssst get on skype when you can >v<
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, your coloring is so very awesome fffff <3<3<3
That's true as well. There are a lot of people just stopping by and read spereate things. Anyhow, it still might seem repetivie if they read the rest you did. Just saying. And I'd be very grateful if you'd never mention that Mareep again. 
No actually I love Mareep! So FLUFFYYYY~ but enou8gh's enough. I'd prefer a Natu mountain in my backyard instead. o3o
I KNOW RIGHT BUT AT THIS RATE IM NOT GOING TO MAKE IT IN TIME! YAAAAY! |DDD
...Which is why I can't go online. If I do, I will be doomed. No. More than doomed. I'll stumble and fall down, stomped at, thrown into a vulcano, get split into my atoms and THEN get doomed forever. So sorry about that. Try to participate in three tourneys at once and get a full-time job and then we'll see how much free time you'll have left to spend chatting with RL issues on your back. I hate it. I really do. But now I started it, so I won't end it without putting up a fight. After R9 ends, I'll be SO there so party with you guys. Pinkie promise. >:C

aww, thanks <3
JUST FOR THAT, GRACIDEA WILL PERSONALLY CRY TO RHEA ABOUT IT, WHENEVER SHE REMEMBERS HOW TRAUMATIZING IT WAS. THE MAREEPS RHEA THE MAREEEEEEP QAQ
Aw, sorry it's really stressful and busy for you right now *hugs*
Can't wait to see what you do for it. I don't even know what Rhea's special mission is iwannaknoooooow ;c;
I shall look forward to the afterparty then <3

Pff, I don't know anything about any other competitor's mission, so I'm kind of flying blind here. However, it's not that bad so I could plot without even knowing what you're up to.
Yup, got a lot of things going on here right now. So I need to act together to finish my entry in the first place. At least I've sketched and inked everything so I'll be most probably left with one week for lettering coloring, lol.

My heart breaks for Grace; I really hope she and Will can be reunited. ;w; I can't wait to see her take on Round 9! <3

Hopefully things will end on a happier note than last round =u=;

Here's hoping! Grace needs to catch a break, although with the challenge this round that might not be possible.

nice work

I really like the bright colors you used for this one! The coloring is significantly much cleaner than your previous rounds for some reason(?), maybe it's because you left some white spaces between the colors and the lineart? Keep it up :3c
And surprisingly the lengthy dialogues you showed in the draft didn't come out as text walls at the end ;v; Yayyy!
I have to admit that now I have even less motivation to finish my round though |D Yours is just too enjoyable~

Hmmm could be a combination of using only marker and making things more vibrant with level adjustment. Come to think of it I've been mixing markers with other mediums since R6 eheheh.
OH GOOD~ The speech is Ele-approved, wonderful 8D
NO 8C FINISH ELE. FINISH ;C;

EEee this looks fantastic, Winnie! I love the dialogue and all the emotion in each panel. And you already know how much I love your style. Everything is fantastic. GREAT JOB. I can't wait to see it all. 8D

Sit back normally in your seat, else your bum may hurt from sitting one the edge for as long as you will have to wait for the next part =u=;
