I've been awake longer than I'd like to be

-part 1-/-part 2-/-part 3-

Part Three! And I still have one panel left!

Elder Faerie doesn't like cats.

Since they used to steal the witches' attention and his food, he would fight with them.

-part 1-/-part 2-

I'm happy because I tried making pancakes today and only two of them burned!

-Part 1-

For some reason, I'm feeling motivated.

Maybe it's because I'm sick, maybe it's because my cat won't stop biting me... Who knows!

Let's just make the most of this before I fall back into my creative slump.

I've had this idea for a long time, and I'm happy with my work!

GOD, YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH I STRUGGLED WITH THE LETTERS!!!

And remember when I said that First Egg was the creator of Elder Faerie?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY "MOTHER"?!

WHAT THE HELL?! DIDN'T THE WITCH CREATE THEM???

WHAT THE HELL???

Does that mean Vampire Cookie wasn't originally a vampire?

So he was normal?

Oh my God, why????

Well, I don't know—I hadn't thought about it until now.

But maybe there is one.

But I'm too lazy to think about what it would look like.

You see, about a year ago—or maybe even longer—I thought, “Since Burning Spice is inspired by Shiva, did he have a wife?”

I mean, at first I thought it was silly, so I just drew a picture for myself and came up with a little OC of her.

And since the Cakehound from the Burning Spice season was jasmine-themed, I figured it made sense to give her jasmine.

I didn’t tell anyone, I didn’t share it with anyone, because I thought it was stupid…

Now I’m faced with the reality that I was right about there being a wife and that she’s possibly related to jasmine.

Well, I’ve accepted my fate as a fortune-teller—I just hope I don’t predict anything bad.

Well, here's my beautiful OC that I made a few months ago when I was bored

Like I said, I named her Jasmine Cookie because I couldn't think of any other name, but I think I'll change it.

I wanted her to look like a cloud, because, well, clouds are soft and friendly, just like her.

There’s also the fact that she has golden eyes like Golden Cheese—mind you, it’s not like she’s a reincarnation of her; it’s just a coincidence I created because I wanted some drama.

...Yep, she’s dead...

I've wanted to make a comic like this for a while now; I'm glad I didn't give up on the idea.

I always thought that Elder Faerie remembers the witches, but not very clearly, since it’s been what feels like eons since he last saw them.

So his memories are just scattered images and sensations that his mind can dredge up—not a complete picture, but fragments of memories he clings to.

But one thing he never forgets is the feeling of being loved.

Because he was loved—no matter how many eons have passed since he felt the warmth of his beloved creators, he knows he was loved by them.

And perhaps that is the only thing that makes life worth living.

And after the war (or before the war) they told the truth a little group of cookies to avoid mass chaos (and also the survivors of the group who follow the witches and Dark Enchastred minions, or a least Pomegranate cookie). A least thats is what I interpret.

But my question is if all of them know that the witches who ate cookies aren't the same who created Eartbread and were the one's they follow?, because we know they were the first witches how dies a long time ago but the cookies didn't know, (and for what I know neither of them, not even first egg, eaten cookies), and the baked cookies didn't know either who were the first witches like I don't know if in Eartbread theres realistc pictures of them and I sure they were more busy in survived than to recognized her

Don't give me that "White Lily told them" crap—she never told them a damn thing!

It’s a very sensitive topic for everyone. The kids might have talked about it, but White Lily didn’t—because if she brought up the topic of witches, she’d also have to bring up “I DIED IN THE OVEN” and mention the other dead cookies in there, too.

And I seriously doubt they told La República, because they wouldn’t hesitate to investigate.

THAT’S EXACTLY WHY THIS TOPIC SHOULD’VE BEEN ADDRESSED A LONG TIME AGO, MY GOD! THEY IGNORED ARGUMENTS, REACTIONS, AND EVERYTHING ELSE WITHOUT GIVING US A PROPER CONCLUSION TO ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT THEMES IN THIS DAMN STORY!

And as for whether or not they know.

This question is so simple, but I have theories that shed light on Earthbread’s evolutionary timeline.

First, you should know that my theory is based on my theory of time (meaning that years can pass in Earthbread while only days go by in the normal world), so with that in mind, listen up.

The first thing the witches tried, after creating the entire continent, was to scatter a bunch of life dust and cookies so they could start exploring the new world, so they left them there for about a week.

When they returned, the cookies had evolved enough to have villages and territories.

But then, one witch—or many—accidentally, or on purpose, left behind fruits, flowers, and things that shouldn’t have been there in the first place, and then they left again for a week.

And when they returned, the fruits had developed differently—they weren’t cookies, they were dragons—and I suppose they took a few to ask them questions and study them.

They soon discovered what had happened: apparently, someone named Sugar Swan Cookie was the one who spread a great deal of magic throughout Earthbread, causing some places to accumulate more life dust than others, creating an imbalance in evolution.

And first of all, Sugar Swan Cookie wasn’t created by the witches; she was created from all the life dust concentrated in one place.

And they noticed that this balance of life was present not only in dragons, but also in the elements of nature.

But the dragons were the only ones who controlled it, and they used it to threaten the cookies.

So they asked Sugar Swan to distribute more life dust at the epicenter of each element, creating a life form to control that power of creation.

Thus, the guardians were created.

The angry and vengeful dragons began devouring the cookies as a way to take revenge on the witches.

But the elementals forced them to retreat, alongside the cookies who had learned to fight.

And so the age of the dragons ended with a war and then peace.

The witches, realizing that there might be more problems in the future and that the guardians had their limitations, created the virtues.

To guide and protect cookie society, even after the witches’ death.

That’s my theory of Earthbread’s history and timeline; in fact, I also have the different names for Earthbread’s eras.

Genesis Era—the first batches of cookies created, pre-Earthbread.

Pristine Era—the cookies were left on Earthbread to start civilizations.

Dragon Era—dragons were the dominant species and ruled over different territories.

Vestige Era—the guardians, together with the cookies, managed to drive back the dragons, but with negative consequences for the mortal cookies, as many died both in the war and some were no longer suitable for growing food, so resources were limited, but the cookies managed to survive.

The Golden Age—the creation of virtues and the promise of a better life; even those who were still struggling with scarcity quickly came to believe that these virtues would help them.

The ginger trio, are the onlys who know the way to the first oven and the witch house, what I don't end to understand is why they only bring Madelaine Cookie, I don't have anything against him and I understand that they need to achieve this mission the most quickly and silent possible. But they still are going to the house of a witch who they know eat cookies and have a story with three of them. I personally would bring one or two cookies more.

Snappdragon could help to calm the things between Cookies and dragons a least enough to hear what Hollyberry has to say or when they have to fight with the corrupted version of Pitaya (And I want to think that if Pitaya wasn't corrupt she would bring them to help, beside it would be nice for Snappdragon to met more dragons, just look how good they and Ananas dragon get along).

And Straberry Creepe Cookie is one of the most intelligents cookies, they machines was what help them to advance in the story

To be honest, I’m still upset about how the topic of witches was handled.

I mean, it wasn’t addressed at all! LITERALLY, IT SEEMS LIKE THEY'VE FORGOTTEN ABOUT IT, AND IT ONLY COMES UP A LITTLE BIT THERE.

I MEAN, LIKE, PURE VANILLA ALREADY KNOWS??? WHEN?? HOW??? WASN’T IT A DAMN SECRET????

DEVSISTERS, YOU SCREWED UP BIG TIME THERE!

And as for why they didn’t bring more cookies, I guess they prioritized quality over quantity.

Because let’s be honest, do you really think a large group would survive in an unknown place?

Madeleine was probably brought along for morale and protection, since the traumatized kid and adult obviously need some encouragement before they come up with a plan for mass suicide.

And here’s a fun fact!

I was right about there being a barrier at Earthbread!

When Elder Faerie dies, what comes out of his wound doesn't look like jam, so what is it?

Oh! It's a concept I wanted to explore in my Au.

That's the Golden Jam.

Golden jam is made from the magic of witches.

Simply put, it’s concentrated liquid magic.

All cookies from the First Age contained it.

But after many millennia, the witches decided to replace it with regular strawberry jam.

It was simply too exhausting and difficult to make golden jam, since it was essentially their magic itself.

For a time, between the First and Second Ages, when strawberry jam was beginning to dominate Earthbread, cookies that still contained golden jam were regarded as royal or blessed.

Nowadays, golden jam is rarely found.

Elder Faerie Cookie was one of the last beings to have it.

The beasts don’t have it.

But it isn’t extinct, since the entire Cookie Kingdom has golden jam.

White Lily and Dark Enchantress also have it, though it’s mixed with strawberry jam.

To make it, the witch who creates it must have an intense craving for cookies—whether out of love or obsession. The witch must be near the oven—not necessarily right next to it, but close enough for her magic to work on its own.

That depends on each guardian; right now, we can only speculate about how evil or ruthless they are.

Well, it really depends on what they're like.

The corrupted Millennial Tree might not actually love Night Raven—maybe it just doesn't want to lose him.
