"I've not yet lost control"

Somehow I do not quite believe him.

He has this. After all, he does have a pointy metal stick. What could POSSIBLY stop him

[Fyraltari]

Thank you!

[Metastachydium]

Hm. Snow? Actually that's pretty clever, Erin.

[Silva Stormrage]

I think this is the largest scale spell Erin has cast so far, some of the other "Options" he listed for stopping the flood also had massive area of effects. I think mages in this setting can produce a lot of large scale effects easier than we thought if they have prep time. This isn't quite the Collector's city wide earth sealing spell but it is still a city wide spell.

[Fyraltari]

I wonder if that's going to affect the duel. Like Tynan's body is still connected to the physical storm, so maybe he'll start freezing and become slower?

Honestly, I doubt that. For starters, that thing with the arms and legs isn't Tynan's body. It's merely an avatar he made just for the occasion. Further, His city getting destroyed didn't crush or physically impair Vash's "body", as evidenced by the fact that the avatar he was using at the time technically survived him, retaining its capabilities.

Look at Tynan's "hair". It's not an independent body the way Kendal was for Vash, it's literally an extension of the storm cloud.

Yes, but no. Tynan's incarnations and the storm are still two separate things. And even when he's not incarnated, the storm (as a physical entity) is not so much Tynan as it is his domain. Now, gods are regularly equated with their domains, but they are at the same time distinct from them to a degree. Case in point, Vash survived the destruction of his and Tynan survived the sundering of the storm.

So all in all, no, I still don't think the cool evening air will affect Tynan adversely.

Huh, looks like Erin is going to be able to get to show off in this fight as well. Glad for him to actually show off a bit, he has been kinda tossed around in combat a bit recently.

Frequent nerfs is the plight of the overpowered character.

"Recently" is when he's finally been able to do something, actually!

This chapter is, far as I can tell, the first time in the entire comic's runtime that Erin has actually succeeded at things instead of Alinua and Kendal bailing him out, first with the bit with the hunters and the water barrel, then now this.

Well he did get INTO the storm which is a fairly impressive show of control/preparation but ya I agree with your general point which is why I am happy he is showing competence here XD

[Metastachydium]

Let's not forget his "rookie mistake" lightning stunt in the caverns either!

[Fyraltari]

Spoiler

Show

Tess "godpuncher" Ruunaser has a nice ring to it.

[Silva Stormrage]

Whelp, that is not a good sign... hopefully Dainax can actually contribute but I think we might see the emergence of Void Magic again based on the chapter image...

[Fyraltari]

That moment when you think you've beaten the boss and then Phase 2 starts.

[Kantaki]

Stop inspiring the baddie, Kendal.

[Fyraltari]

Did Erin just literally move faster than lightning?

[Kantaki]

New comic

Okay, that's a pretty sweet looking second form.
Let's see if Tynian can back it up or if he just turned into a bigger target.

[Fyraltari]

Today on Aurora: Alinua regrets being a healing main.

New comic

Kendal: "She won't have to worry about me if I'm dead.
That counts, right?"

[Fyraltari]

At what point does it go from "heroic behaviour" to "suicidal tendencies"?

[Kantaki]

At what point does it go from "heroic behaviour" to "suicidal tendencies"?

I think they depend on your point of view?
Applies only to Jedi though.

Alternatively it's a sliding skale. Like colours.
You know, when is it still red and where does it begin to be orange, something like that.

Alternatively alternatively the former is rooted in the latter and it depends on why you're doing it.
Attacking the angry rage dragon with bugs because he talked about killing children? Probably heroic.
Doing so because he's there? Suicidal.

[Silva Stormrage]

At what point does it go from "heroic behaviour" to "suicidal tendencies"?

I mean the main issue isn't that it's suicidal. Kendal doesn't WANT to die. He just doesn't care strongly if he does or not. Somewhat similar to Emiya Shirou (From Fate/Stay Night) really now that I think about it.

[Fyraltari]

Dragon fight?

[Windscion]

Gotta be dragon fight.
Dragon Fight!
Dragon Fight!

[Fyraltari]

I wish to retract my previous statement.

I smell a new party member!

What, you think coming to the realization that Erin may not have been entirely honest about why he wanted access to the Archives and what his interest in her religion's legends was as a result of watching his possessed form kill (or at the very least attempt to kill) a god might put something of a damper on their working relationship?

In this group? Keeping secrets is their schtick.
