MB: What was elsewhere

Just so people know...not that anyone reads these blogs, but the name of my short comic is called Moonlight Bamboo (MB for short)

So from the last post, the "Elsewhere," well I've decided that it comes before you meet the bamboo cutters.

Setting: unknown, but for my sake, the moon. Everything is in shadows. No clear view of people's faces. Never a full body shot

Open panel: A building of unknown origins

Judge: In accordance to the law, you have been found guilty. Are you prepared to pay the price for the crime you have committed?
Girl (Kaguya): ...Yes.
Judge: *to guards or other people* Prepare the container!
*scenes of flashy lights and transformations. Then container is shot into space*

*off in the shadows of the hall*
Woman: Was it the right thing to do? To send here there?
Man: The other punishments would be too severe. With this punishment we will be able to make an appeal later. Though, it may take some time to do.
Woman: I hope you're right.

and now it's time for Elsewhere!

The start of Kaguya Hime

In hopes to finally start my short story, I thought maybe here I will jot down some notes for it. At least the writing part of it.


Chapter 1:
In the early morning, sun had just begone to rise; mist surrounds this town surrounded by the bamboo. No one is stirring, except for one household. The door opens to this shop, with a sign that says, (insert name), and a man steps out out with a basket and axe on hand. He walks down a very short distance when he hears his name being called. He turns around and there is a woman standing outside the bamboo shop. He goes back to the woman and asks what's wrong? The woman seems worried and doesn't speak for a moment.

W: Dear, I'm....I'm sorry.
M: There's nothing to be sorry about.
W: But what happens if we never conceive. The doctor said-
M: The doctor is wrong. We will find a way. If there is a will, there is away. Now, you need rest. Go back inside and I'll return later this afternoon. (says with a kind smile on his face)

The bamboo cutter walks about the steep road onto various paths. The walk ways are surrounded by the bamboo. Finally, he goes off the beaten path in the forest of bamboo, finds a spots and begins cutting the bamboo.

Elsewhere.....

And that's it for now. Now it's time for wine tasting!
