Happy 6th Undertale anniversary… and welcome back to Eldritchfell.
In all honesty, when I stopped updating this project, I didn’t think I’d return to it. It was still something close to my heart, but I couldn’t make myself work on pages– maybe because my art style had radically changed, maybe because I was no longer satisfied with some decisions I’d made. For that reason, several things have changed in this new third version. In some ways it’s a little closer to classic Undertale, though of course still different enough to call it an AU.
At any rate. It feels a little strange to, but I thank everyone from former Eldritchfell attempts still reading for their patience, or for giving this one more shot with me. I also thank everyone new who’s reading Eldritchfell for the first time, and decides they want to read this AU, even 6 years after the fandom began. Some of my projects will stick in my head and just refuse to die, this being one of them. Updates to this will not be as fast as past EF versions or my original webcomic, due to both much longer pages and working on several projects. I can’t promise I’ll finish this version either, but I hope to have fun with it, experiment, and push my limits. And I hope you enjoy it too.
The characters? The characters may enjoy it less.
With that out of the way, considering that all versions of Eldritchfell have had some connection with other AUs planned, I felt it fitting to cameo a great number of them in the prologue, even moreso with this debuting on Undertale’s anniversary, the start of this crazy fandom. Some of these AUs I chose to cameo because they’re very popular in the fandom, some because they’re ones I like a great deal personally, and some because they fit with the narration in the story. Image description and AU credits both below the cut.
