Re: Girl Genius: XXXenophile Edition
The Castle-bot refers to the stone as 'rotting,' and there are different colored veins all throughout. The ordinary reason for something like this to happen would be a high level of activity by chemosynthetic bacteria within the internal pores of the rock itself, which is quite natural. Any effect that effectively turned bacterial activity up to eleven - radiation, a flush of nutrients, etc. could cause widespread degradation of the overall structure of the rock layers.

Re: Girl Genius: XXXenophile Edition
I dunno, rock isn't widely known for its internal pore system. Yes, it can happen in light igneous rock, or sedimentary rock with water-soluble components or a history of worm activity (have we seen any geologist Sparks yet?) But then they'd have to explain that in comic with real science instead of SCIENCE!! (Can rock that's not immersed in water even <i>get</i> a flush of nutrients? Irradiating bacteria isn't going to make them grow faster if there's nothing to eat, they'll just mutate faster.) Also, the Castle is made of all manner of things, and is filled with curios, but has never seen this before.
New splash page: looks like many many stories of temples with crumbled floors. I'm betting on some kind of Source.
Edit: new comic!
Spoiler: 12/11/21Sea monsters! Which look kind of like the fish people... I don't know why, something about the fins on their heads and the derpy eyes maybe. I wonder if they're trapped?Last edited by theangelJean; 2021-11-12 at 02:46 AM.
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.

New comic
Heaven is not, usually, the downwards located place.
On the other hand those things often lie in the eye of thebeholdereyeball-thingy.
So from a certain point of view it might be heaven for those two."If it lives it can be killed.

Re: Girl Genius: XXXenophile Edition
SpoilerIt could be a pool of Dyne-like water, modified at the source by the Other and the British sparks, so that it has strong karstic effects that the Castle has never seen before. Those could be dyne-transformed Deepdwellers like the one in the whale. We know that the Songkeeper (aka the Cetacean Broadcaster) has gone insane because of cursed water. This could be an inlet leading to his position.Originally Posted by J.R.R. Tolkien, 1955

Re: Girl Genius: XXXenophile Edition
I realize it's wildly premature, but I'd like to nominate "Rhaaaaa? Rawr! Wargle!" as the next thread title.
I made a webcomic, featuring absurdity, terrible art, and alleged morals.

Noted.
I record thread nominations when they are made, no matter how early. After that, it's down to the voting at the other end of the thread.Warning: This posting may contain wit, wisdom, pathos, irony, satire, sarcasm and puns. And traces of nut.

Re: Girl Genius: XXXenophile Edition
I'm not certain that artistic similarity is sufficient to conclude these creatures are related to the deep dwellers. Also, I'm not sure the deep dwellers are related to the Great Cetaceans at all.
OTOH, conservation of story suggests these creatures are tied to the main plot.

Re: Girl Genius: XXXenophile Edition
Well, looking back at the comics where they pinpointed this island to go look at, they did say this was the area in the center of the problem zone the Deep Dwellers and the Cetaceans were concerned about. They obviously had connections.

I keep hoping these two would be like Hope & Crosby, but they are so similar it's like 2 Crosby's with no singing.

This bear was not going to touch the statue.... much
Ponies not only make ME want to be a better person than I was before they entered my life, they make me want to HELP OTHERS be better people too.
And that is a GOOD thing by any definition.

Re: Girl Genius: XXXenophile Edition
Bear was only comparing paw size to rod size.
Four armed people is the big reveal. Lady Steelgarter has four arms. That, my friends, cannot be a coincidence, and we may discover that there's a widget that requires four arms to operate.
It will take Agatha a day or two to build a belt-on clank to give her four arms.This ... is my signature finishing move!
