Artist commentary for Inhuman After All:

Thomas Ferkol: (Bandcamp about blurb)

Annette tends to Erik, who has been heavily damaged. His lower body no longer functioning and upper body in barely better shape, he begins to tell Annette more about the Miasma and its properties while trying to think of a way to continue the journey back to Margaret. He tells her being a Miasmic isn't a matter of life and undeath, but rather that the Miasma is a type of alchemic magic that changes everything living or once possessing life it comes in contact with. By changing the make up of things with the Miasma, they take on an entirely different form of life, an almost parasitic life based on "the source" at the heart of Alacastor. The altered body resonates with some distant "frequency" of life that's always been there, as he describes it. In her case, she is both living and a Miasmic, and so long as she keeps her body preserved and capable of sustaining life without the Miasma, she can stay that way. In the middle of asking for more information, however, Erik cuts her off, saying it isn't the best time and place for him to divulge everything. Instead, he requests that she sever his head.
