A web comic written by Kale Night and illustrated by Archie-the-Red-Cat, ''[[A Broken Winter]]'' follows three central characters; Kokkan, a heavily traumatized child who grows up to be a flippant, sarcastic teenager, Kuroda, the soldier who raised Kokkan because the boy reminded him of his own murdered son, and Reisen, a doctor who is accused of terrorism after he uncovers some unsettling truths. The story primarily takes place in Terasu, one of two remaining countries on the planet, [[Brave New World (novel)|which uses chemical means to keep its citizens docile]] and [[Nineteen Eighty-Four|is known for brutally enforcing compliance with the government.]] [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|Sound familiar?]]
There are currently two threads to the story. The first deals with Kokkan and Kuroda and how they met. The second follows Reisen, a free spirit who discovered the government's darkest secret when he learned the mysterious origins of "Moon Sickness" which is also called Tarqila. The two threads are tied together by the fact that Kokkan also happens to be Reisen's biological son.
