Description
So I've drawn April again after quite a while now. I felt like I've never paid enough attention to her outfit when drawing her before. So... reputation fixed

To be honest though, if I had control over how the story of Chapters would go I'd do it like this. Well, the first chapter at least.
Zoe is still trapped in Dreamtime, while April wakes in a Stark Hospital. Having shifted there subconsciously in response to getting stabbed, and was saved when someone called an Ambulance.
She learns from her Doctors (Who don't know her name as she didn't have any ID) that she's been recovering for 2 months.
She's distraught but keeps it to herself so's not to arouse suspicion. Though the doctor treating her is rather understanding, she still misleads him by saying her last name is Shepard.
Once she's able to move again she tires to go back to Arcadia, only to realise she's suffering from the same problem she had there and is unable too. Not willing to get stabbed again, she tries to make the most of it, and decides. With a lot of reservation to contact her Stark friends again, who are overjoyed to her from her. She is too, but its mixed with sadness and guilt, as she arranges to meet them again.
While that's going on Kiane manages to break free of his Azadi captures as he's being taken to prison. Alone in the wilderness, and with few options left decides to try his luck with the Resistance, on his way to contact them, he meets up with Crow, and the two bound over there shared respect for April. Kiane letting the Avian in on her being attacked and the possibility that she's dead.
Once the two arrive in Marcuria they are brought in to the Resistance. Kiane is met with mistrust for being the intended executioner of April, who they naturally can't find. Enu, and Likho are also there, though his backstory is different from Chapters. A Apostle did kill his father before him but it wasn't Kiane. He still wants him dead, more so because he thinks that he killed April and only had a change of heart once he did. But he's overruled by Shepherd who wants his understanding of the Azadi to defeat them. When exploring there HQ he comes across Klacks, (Genuinely reformed but still full of himself) who joined up with them when it started to become clear that even former Magic users where going to be targeted eventually. That and he felt somewhat indebted to Ryan for her role in getting him out of Magic.
Back in Stark April has met up with Emma and Charlie and has told them everything. Though sceptical, both admit the strangeness of it all and Zoe's own behaviour support it. The two resolve to try and get her back, but when Apirl asks where Zoe is hoping that she can help, by going to Arcadia and telling the Resistance she's alive. But they say that she had disappeared. Worried April begins trying to piece together Zoe's story and a few days later there's a knock at the door. It's Damian, who informs her that Zoe is being kept in a Coma at WatiCorp and that he and Olivia have gone underground to save her. Soon April is roped in two. (Eventfully it becomes clear that Zoe is inheritable saving April by giving her someone to save, restoring her faith along the way.)
A little later the Doctor who treated her approaches her in public, apparently after she was discharged some suits took notice of her and tried to get him to disclose her medical files. When he refused they had his medical licence suspended. He was already suspicious by April healing so fast, but he didn't investigate feather to protect her privacy but with the suits involved he did a little digging and noticed she matched the description of another April reported missing 8 years prior, what further mystified him as none of it made sense. Was her suddenly showing up in a metropolitan area because even if she was off the grid for that long. She'd need some kind of ID just to get into the city, in fact from his examination of her, it appeared she had no intention of even being where she was found. With that and WatiCorps clearly being interested in her he asks April to let him help. Reluctantly she agrees but being her genre savvy self, points out that, sending someone with a synthetic background to seemingly help her, would be something a corporation like WatiCorp would do if they wanted to get to her. He approves of her doubt saying if this as big as he suspects it to be, distrust is going to keep her alive.
The Chapter ends with Zoe in Dreamtime helping people like she did originally and talking to the Vagabond who speaks in his usual manner while hinting of a greater danger that remains. One that all three Heroes must face together if the Worlds are to be saved.

Wooow! Looks great! Suuuuper)))
P. S. Hiii)) Miss you. We haven't seen for ages. How are you?

Thank you! Glad you like it!
Hi! It's been ages.
I'm fine. At the moment I should be revising for my final exams at university, but... laziness, you know
What about you? How are you doing?

Oh, I know)) Wish you good luck 😉 What are you studying for?
As for me, now I'm finishing my first year of Master degree of Pedagogy 😊 I'm also studying playing the guitar and driving the car. I decided to improve myself 😁

Yeah, you've been dragged into dark dark secrets of the work in progress

You've got my vote, April!
Seriously though, nice use of artistic license on her outfit, I like how some details look like scales and overall very stylish. And how can I dislike a good artwork of my favourite character of all times in all fiction!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That's simple - you can't!
Also, what other choice do we have? When the whole game screwed with her so badly, the only option that's left for us is to create our own stuff... so yea, here we go.
Thanks, though

You're right, I'm incapable of that.
Don't even remind me of that. Wooo let's kill the best protagonist we've ever made and then try and make the remaining ones more like her so they would become more likable! Great idea. Yep, create our own stuff. I'm on it! Seriously, I am, right now.
You're welcome

My favorite character (perhaps of all time)! I miss her so much. What do you think of April not being in Chapters ?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Perhaps? Oh, my favourite definintely, no doubts! I've been in love ever since I playied TLJ. Truth to be told, I was like 13 years old when I discovered it. The infamous critical age, eh? So there might be a bit of sentiment in it for me
As for her not being in Chapters? Goddamnit!! Yeah, they said her presence will be strongly felt. Oh well, to me it all seems like - remembering the old times when the kickass good old april was still aroun.
Meh, not generally happy with Chapters, to be honest.
It all seems that her "rebirth" will happen in the 5th episode. But what is this good for. I wanted to spend as much time with her as possible. But they pushed her away, completely. The main heroine, the main character of the game. Not cool, not cool at all.

I love April so much ..... even more than Lara Croft or Kate Walker, it hurts! Especially when she was with Crow! Gosh they were the ultimate duo!
Can't remember when I played TLJ for the first time but heck was that rubber duckie puzzle dufficult!
I feel you on the Chapters rant.... To be honest , I don't like that game one bit! Too political and dry talk, kinda glad I didn't back it on Kickstarter.
Do you ever think she will have her own game TLJ Home in the end?
