Re: OOTS #1251 - The Discussion Thread
Hah, i'm loving the Belkar Serreni interactions.
Wait you don't think there's any chance Serreni was going under an alias whilst wondering around do you? She couldn't really be granny Bitterleaf right?

INCREDIBLE callback to the acid sharks!
At least now I can get back to enjoying my glass of elven wine in peace and quiet, without being called on to intervene in someone else's problems.

Re: OOTS #1251 - The Discussion Thread
Okay, I'm guessing that someone's been feeding her outdated information, because if she's either been spying on them constantly or recently there is no way she'd think that would have worked. Heck, I don't think that pre-pyramid BRItF Belkar would have given her that impression.
Support "the IFCC is feeding her misleading information somehow" theory seems to be growing, and I'm not sure how I feel about that.Cool elan Illithid Slayer by linkele.

Re: OOTS #1251 - The Discussion Thread
I'm reminded of the film Song of the Sea where an old woman's house in Dublin strikingly reminded me of my own Granny's house. Though she didn't live in Dublin.

Belkar seems almost confused. Btw, did Haley get hoofed in the front butt? Harsh.

Re: OOTS #1251 - The Discussion Thread
Belkar is conflicted. Serini is bringing back fond memories of his upbringing as a budding sociopath. I wonder if the next strip will feature Serini going "Bitterleaf? BITTERLEAF?" - her expression in the last panel could be thoughtful.
Anyway, the dialogue between the paladins is amusing. "You'd be surprised". I don't think O Chul's memories of acidic sharks are fond ones.This ... is my signature finishing move!

Re: OOTS #1251 - The Discussion Thread
Belkar's really come a long way since Azure City. It's always nice to see reminders of Shojo's continued influence on him. I doubt Lien would enjoy being compared to Miko, I wonder if she made the connection or not.

"... the way Granny Bitterleaf did."
Y'know, I don't usually turn to Belkar for a nostalgia fix.
And I love the fact that a paladin can be badass while chained to a wall.Last edited by Jay R; 2022-01-07 at 09:35 AM.

Re: OOTS #1251 - The Discussion Thread
Such a delightful callback to the acid shark tank that made O'Chul one of the most popular characters in the comic. Well done!

Do you guys seriously think that Belkar doesn’t recognize granny bitterleaf? Like, he knows what his grandma looks like, even trollified.

Re: OOTS #1251 - The Discussion Thread
A "swallow whole" attack usually deals bludgeoning and acid damage (from stomach acid), so even the non-acid-breathing sharks can cause acid dama. But Serini was only swallowed for a round or two, so she'll be fine.

Re: OOTS #1251 - The Discussion Thread
Not bloody likely. Serini mentioned she know who the OOTS are because of the Sending they kept giving her.
She specifically knew about what happened in Azure City in the throne room and that's more likely because of those devices that each members of the scribbles had.
Doesn't seem remotely like this has anything to do with what they said in the ending of the previous book about activating an artifact.
In fact, this goes in complete opposite to their plan.
The IFCC made it clear that they wanted a race to the last gate. Serini is attempting to prevent that by having their memories wiped.
She has nothing to do with them.

Re: OOTS #1251 - The Discussion Thread
For real though, if the backstory stuff for Belkar is all canon, it does explain a bit about why he was so messed up as a person early on.
I mean it doesn't justify it, obviously, but it explains it. Like Tarquin being a crappy parent explaining why Nale was so obsessed about accomplishing things on his initiative.Cool elan Illithid Slayer by linkele.

Re: OOTS #1251 - The Discussion Thread
I can't be the only one thinking that this jokes about Serini reminding Blekar of his grandmother has to be the author trolling all the people who kept guessing they are related, right?
