We'll go to the one who's helped the mad one. The one who straddles two worlds, but is of neither.— Gwimbe, describing Oswald
The Oswald Chronicles
is a
Web Comic by J.D. Calderon.
The story centers around Oswald, scribe and gentlemouse, who straddles the human world and the Fae world.
The first storyline,
although not the beginning of the story, begins when a group of
Fae steals the hammer of Kalvaitis, stopping him from forging the sun that day and leaving the fae world in
perpetual darkness. A lone kitchen helper from Kalvaitis's castle manages to escape, and heads into the human world to find the only person that can help, Oswald.
The second storyline starts in a time before the first. Diane, Oswald's love interest, heads out on a mysterious errand and leaves her cousin Diadra to look after Oswald. Three
Mysterious Waifs show up, being followed by a monster called
Howard.
