Commentary for October 17, 2019:

Like with the first scene depicted on page 10, the first scene here was important for me to include, because I wanted it to be clear that the Echidna Empire had taken the warp rings and used them to escape. That way, the next time they appear will make sense (and, yes, they will appear in the next season and more-or-less every season of Eon's World Vol. 1 going forward really).

This is different to how it was done in Eon’s Comic. Shadow pretty much beat up all the personnel Sora-Ya had with her and then threw her off the island. I established when she returned later that she had stolen the warp rings and that was how she’d survived -- by going through one, rather than falling to her death. But since I’m not killing her in this chapter, I didn’t think it was necessary to even tease it. Plus, it’s out of character for Shadow, as I’ve re-written him, to do something so needlessly vindictive. So, instead, Sora-Ya gets out with her followers through one of the rings she’s stolen.

But why’d I do it the other way in the original? Well, I can’t quite remember my thought process (I have slept since then, after all), but I believe I wanted there to be some closure in that story arc, which ended in Eon’s Comic #50. I wanted that to be a place where the story could technically end. Now, there were many loose ends still, as it happened, and I didn’t end the story or even take a break at that time. I just carried on and it wasn’t long at all before the Echidna Empire was back. I just enjoyed writing them too much, and that at least hasn’t changed a bit.
