Belkar's Prophesy

[Scubasteve0209]

During the visit to the Oracle Belkar asked

"Do I get to cause the death of any of the following: Miko, Miko's stupid horse, Roy, Vaarsuvius, or you (the Oracle)," to which he responded "Yes"

Now, after having read this latest strip, it could be considered that it has come true, albeit indirectly. In OOTS 429 Belkar gets Roy into the fight by giving him his Ring of Jumping +20.

So while Belkar didn't deal the subsequent damage, or even the blow, he *did* cause the fight to happen, which was the wording of the question.

Thoughts?

Sigh, you beat me too it :smallfrown:

Yes, it seems like that could fit the letter of the prophecy, but it wouldn't be very satisfying to me in terms of the story.

yeah, I did a quick scan over the page to see if anyone else had covered it but must've glossed over that one.
