MORE THAN MYTHS IS NOW OPEN FOR PREORDERS!

Be sure to help us spread the word by reblogging!

The zine features full-page illustrations and stories from 40+ participants, including both artists and writers. A full list of participants can be found below.

Art for the cover was done by @artemiashrimp

We are currently having a small issue with PayPal’s verification that should hopefully be resolved tomorrow. We will make an announcement when this is completed and payment is able to be taken through PayPal. Until then, we will be accepting payment with Stripe.

This is a Charity zine. All proceeds not used in the manufacturing of this zine and its merchandise will be donated to The Trevor Project, a suicide intervention service for LGBT+ youth.

What is it?

This zine is a fan made project specifically revolving around the units of the video game Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones.

Will this be a charity or for-profit?

This will be a charity zine, where all profits not used for manufacturing will go to the NAEH, the National Alliance to End Homelessness.

What sort of art will be allowed in this zine?

As long as it revolves around the Sacred Stones characters, it’s fine! You can have canonical representation, AUs, ships - anything is fine! The one thing we do request is that it be PG-13 rated at most. No overly gory/violent artwork or anything NSFW will be allowed.

How long will applications be open?

Applications will run from July 7th to August 2nd, so you have some time to apply!

How will you decide who participates? How many artists will there be?

Artists will be decided by a juried selection, and 35 artists will be selected for the main zine, along with a cover artist and merchandise artists.

You can apply here! The application will remain open until 11:59 CST on August 2nd.

We’re interested in putting together a zine dedicated to Sacred Stones from Fire Emblem, the video game series by Nintendo, which follows the story of Princess Eirika and Prince Ephraim and their companions as they battle against the invading Grado Empire.

Whether you’d like to depict the daily lives of these heroes, the villains, a romantic pairing, a modern setting or any other AU you can think of, we’d love to see what you can create to honor the series!

But first, we’d like to see how interested people would be in joining, either as a participating artist or as a buyer.

I’m opening commissions!

I’m saving up to move to a place that’s going to be better for my mental health, so I’ll be offering commissions!
