Sweet things she insists she doesn’t love that much.

She doesn’t declare her power loudly, but she endures every trial placed in her path.

I’m Clare - illustrator and storyteller.

Katoptrium is a long-term graphic novel about fractures between worlds, light magic, and two agents standing at the edge of something that should have remained sealed.

This is only the beginning.

The fracture is already open.
