Seekers (webcomic)



Seekers is a fantasy Web Comic by Kerstin "Eph" Veith-Szuplinski centering around a small, winged, hungry little creature named Giselda. She leaves her family home in search of adventure in the human city of Yonar. Once there, the innocent wingling gets more adventure than she ever thought possible as she gets caught up in thievery, assassination plots and conspiracies. Not to mention a mysterious, powerful wingling man.

 * Les Yay - Giselda's first encounter with Cato has small hints that her reaction to her goes a bit beyond impressed (she wonders why her heart is beating so fast as she watches her leave). Cato also seems to have an odd soft spot for Nareen, especially having just met her. When she touches her face at the jail, it is almost romantic.
 * Like Brother and Sister - Giselda thought this was the relationship she had with Takchi. Then he made his declaration of love before she left and confused everything.

 * Ms. Fanservice - Giselda's panties are often a topic of forum discussions and gag strips.
