    I am really stressing out over the last dozen or so pages of Duane losing control.

    Not so much losing control, but reverting to his old Deus Vult way.

    I don't recall his old, pious behavior involving so much nibbling.

    I think it's both. He's losing control over his zombie hunger, which makes his fanaticism and anger even worse.

    It's the opposite, in my opinion, his old Deus Vult ways are bringing his own zombie hunger back.

    He wanted to rough up Lori before he was hungry. To find out where the water-women were. In his rage, he attacked and spilled her blood. His hunger flared up enraging him further. And Sette was there to stop him.

    Also, damn. In the latest chapter, Duane is getting super creepy. And sarcastic.

    This is reminding me of Homestuck's story telling concept of Meat or Candy.

    Duane represents viewer wanting the Meat i.e. resolving the plots and uncovering the setting secrets.

    Sette represents the Candy - the relationships between the characters, and their internal development.

    So that's what that was about!

    ...Still not gonna read more of the new stuff, though. Homestuck was a lovely, complete, self-sufficient work, and I want its memory unsullied.

    I only just realised this updates with single pages multiple times per week, rather than at unpredictable intervals (ie whenever I remember to check the site) with multiple pages. Anyone know the update schedule? I clearly need to check it more often, as apart from Captain Toma I've forgotten who everyone in the fight outside the shrine is...
    I'm pretty much the opposite of concise. If I fail to get to the point, please ask me and I'm happy to (attempt to) clarify.

    It's helpfully in the corner on the main page.

    The comic's PG-13? I... disagree. What with the waterwoman gore, rotting flesh and attempted rape.

    Updates are Mon/Wed/Fri.

    However! Some scenes flow better when they happen at once. So Ashley uploads three at once and usually skips any subsequent updates. Say on Monday there was a gripping final fight and it's 3 pages (e.g. pg 56, 57, 58). So then Wed/Fri, no updates. And then next week on Monday - pg 59.

    The update schedule, not PG rating. I'd agree, but who cares. No one is going to supervise random Webcomic. As for nudes/gore/rape/rot, plenty of fairy tales feature all those elements, albeit less graphical.

    Don't get me wrong, I love the comic, and would hate for it to pull its punches. I just found the label amusingly inaccurate.

    Looking at today's sound effect (KOK). I'm not sure if it's PG-13, or not.

    EDIT: Clarification it's both childishly innocent a slap with a ****. On the other hand, it's nudity.

    And the one behind in the second last bottom centre panel also has one, prominently drawn. And ... neither of them have legs? Interesting choice.

    I found the end of the current page (Ch. 15 Pg. 105) very touching. Sette rarely gets to experience affection.

    I am still having so much trouble trying to follow what is going on here. I know there's an awesome story here, I just can't work it out. Help please?

    Spoiler: most recent comic
    Show
    A few strips back, Duane was teaching someone - Siya? how to cast a glamour. And now Sara is standing there with her head completely cracked in and still talking ... and she slowly re-forms in the latest strip ... but I don't get the connection? I thought they were wearing costumes?

    That isn't real even glamour wise it just shows his weird perception of them, on the page in the comment sections of the last chapters there has been some discussion of it, I recommend checking out the comments.

    From Duane's perspective, these children aren't real people. They're dolls with their empty heads filled with false dogma. Except for the one girl he befriended, which he now sees as fully human, and her sister who is progressively humanized in his eyes until she makes the mistake to mention the "Good Queen".

    Thank you both. The visual metaphor escaped me. I guess I'm spoiled by having them clearly signposted in OOTS...

    This story certainly implies a lot, though Ruffles isn't having it. I can't blame her, really. It's hard to take heart in "we used to be great" stories when everything is crumbling around you and things are awful.

    Yeah, I don't know how those stories of past greatness are supposed to inspire. They live in cave, subservient to others, with no real hope of reclaiming that former status. It's very hard to believe in a good future when the present is so bleak. Like, sure they used to be gods, but not anymore.

    Were they ever Gods? They have no ability to manipulate the Khert. Anyone without access to it, can't be really called Gods. Unless ofc Nana is implying they were able to do so, but Black Tongue birbs helped humans rob them of it.

    I don't know if they actually were gods in the sense of being able to use power like that. I don't recall if there's evidence in the story to actually support that, or if her claim was just exaggerating their own importance to the world in those days.

    At this point we've heard three conflicting cosmologies: Gefendur, Ssaelit, and Two-Toe... er, Inak. I don't think any of them is reliable, and for the actual cosmology we have to go on what little the Senet Beasts have said.

    Most Senet Beasts don't remember. It was like asking a person what were their first years like.

    The important questions are. How reliable are these revelations?
    We are getting what 3rd hand information? At least 1 participant with an interest in spinning the narrative.
    And some good old trauma to twist up the memories.
    thnx to Starwoof for the fine avatar
