The Touch of Sunlight  is a webcomic about a wish-granting being, Nulo (they/them), who resides in a mysterious well that appears whenever there’s a full moon. Wish-seekers are drawn to it; they ask Nulo to grant their wish in exchange for a small token. Nulo grants their wishes, but often in ways they don’t expect.

(The chick in the picture wished for her crops to be better than her neighbor’s. Her crops were better but her neighbor struck oil XDD)

One day, Nulo meets Eyya, a woman who visits them at the well and has no wish for herself. Their first meeting is hilarious:

THEY ARE SO CUTE I CAN’T EVEN sajfd;aslkdfjsd XD XD XD XD

First of all, the art is amazing. Everything is done under moonlight, and the way OP draws the lighting and the shadows is just gorgeous.

Look at the detail in this cap! The dappled moonlight, the strands of grass by the rocks and the leaves of the bushes. Gorgeous!

I also love the way OP draws their facial expressions. It’s just so well-done, you can see what they’re feeling even if they don’t say it out loud.

SPOILERS TO FOLLOW:

(Nulo realizing their wish).

And then this part here, where Nulo tells her:

The romance is so heartfelt and tender. At the end (SPOILERS) when Nulo and Eyya are finally together, Nulo starts to cry. It’s such a tender moment, because you really feel how lonely they’ve been sitting in the darkness waiting to grant wishes with no one to call their own.

I love this panel so much. Their one wish was just to wipe the dirt off her face! Aww Nulo XDDD

The OP does a fantastic job sketching out the characters in just a few panels. Nulo is such a lonely character, I just wanted them to get all the hugs and snuggles and sunlight. And the ending is so beautifully written, you can almost picture how the rest of their life unfolds, with someone who loves them for themselves and finally able to feel the warmth of the sun.

My favorite panel from the whole series XDD
