It updates two pages every Monday, for people who care.
I need to archive binge this again. I still have it in my tabs, but its one of those that you have to really be paying attention to the story, and I haven't been.
Well, it says two every Monday, but it updated yesterday so that's why I didn't mention that.
EDIT: And now it says it'll update again on Sunday, so it seems to be every three days now.

Hate to double post but it seems I was right, partially. It update every Thursday and Sunday now, with this last update being late because of an internet outage for the author.
Carciphona is actually quite old! For a webcomic, at least. I followed it back when it was called 'Blackbird', I think five-some years ago at least, and even back then there were archived pages of an older version that went on for two or three chapters. I haven't kept up with it for three or so years now though. As for the art, Shilin can certainly draw, but I can't say I'm a fan of the fact that it reads right to left... Some of the page layouts were already confusing without that added complication.
Rather late to the discussion, but...ahh, does anyone want to start up a page for Carciphona? I started on it, until I realized I had no idea what I was doing.
So the author has made an AU of Carciphona set in the modern day where Blackbird and Veloce are a couple.
Do you have a link?
Welcome to Estalia, gentlemen.Amongst Us, a Modern Alternate Universe Carciphona where Veloce and Blackbird are a couple.
A relatively new and unique webcomic, although webmanga may be more accurate. A very interesting read that I stumbled across by chance and decided to share here. It also has an extensive backstory for such a (currently) short run.

Summary of the world from the website:
"World:
Maelstrom is a world that consists of three planes: the Overworld that’s ruled by Deities, the Mortal Realms—home of humans, and the Underworld where Demons dwell. Though the living is able to call upon the spirits of the other worlds through the art of sorcery, it is impossible for the inhabitants of each plane to travel to the otherplanes. Because of this limit to their scope of the world, the names "Maelstrom" and "Mortal Realms" are often used interchangeably.
Magic:
Magic is commonly practiced by the inhabitants of Maelstrom. The Sorcery of humans draws power from Demons of the Underworld, Deities of the Overworld, and Souls of the Mortal Realms. In addition to humans, many other intelligent races of Mortals and Immortals inhabit the Mortal Realms. These races practice unique elemental magic that humans are incapable of performing.
At the beginning of the story, the kingdoms of Maelstrom had recently prohibited all uses of Common Magic—alias for Demon Magic. This is due to the suspected link between summoning upon Demon spirits of the Underworld into the Mortal Realms, Demon-infected human souls, and the sudden appearance of an assassin that is immune to magic."
