Bk1: Ch2: Pg19
Maeye: There you are!
2a.
Gus: You were not jesting, Maeye. She is truly lovely.
Maeye: Gentlemen, may I present to you the Lady Arayanna.
Arayanna: Lady? Oh please...
Arayanna: Oh my.
2b.
Gus: My lady...
Maeye: Zenlan! Some food for my good friend Arayanna, and some of that good blonde ale too!
Arayanna: It is a bit early for ale, I think. Water will do just fine.
2c.
Maeye: Early? It's well past noon, sleepy head.
Arayanna: Well, I suppose I was quite tired.
Arayanna: Thank you for letting me sleep.
3a.
Arayanna: But enough about me. Who are our new friends here?
Maeye: Arayanna, please allow me to introduce Sir Gus and Sir Ryder.
Gus: Lass, moe many times do we have to tell you, the "Sir" is not necessary. We are not knights.
Ryder: But it does have a nice ring to it, especially when Maeye says it. "Sir Ryder" indeed.
Arayanna: Well met, good gentlemen.
3b.
Maeye: And this. of course is our host Zenlan.
Arayanna: Ah yes. Thank you so very much for your hospitality Zenlan. The bath and the bed were both wonderful.
Zenlan: 'Twas my pleasure, m'lady.
Arayanna: You are all going to give me quite a complex if you keep up this "My Lady" nonsense. "Arayanna" is just fine.
4a.
Arayanna: THis looks wonderful, Zenlan. Thank you. By the maker, I am famished.
Zenlan: I hope you enjoy it, my la... um... Arayanna. The lass Maeye insisted I spare no expense.
4c.
Arayanna: This is perfect. Thank you, everyone.
Arayanna: Maeye, do you think we could have a private word?
Maeye: Yup.
5a.
Maeye: Boys, could you give us a minute?
Ryder: Come Gus, let me fill that for you.
Gus: Aye.
5b.
Arayanna: I have spoken with Fiet.
Maeye: She's here? Where?
Arayanna: No. She is not here. It's... complicated.
Maeye: More magic?
Arayanna: Yes. Does that frighten you?
Maeye: I only worry that you will get caught. We will need to be cautious.
5c.
Maeye: Are Pretah and Nori OK?
Arayanna: Yes. Fiet says they are fine, but the storm is still too dangerous.
Maeye: Yes. The weather has been crazy all morning. I am amazed you could sleep through it.
Arayanna: There is something else you should know.
Maeye: Let me guess. There is a third girl with them.
6.
Arayanna: How did you know that?
Maeye: It seems we share common cause with our new friends here.
Ryder: Well yea, she's hot, but what's with the ears?
Is Mae drunk? Or maybe drugged? She’s, kinda acting weird/strange
She’s been drinking a bit. 🙂 This is going to be an interesting day….
You have changed Gus’ looks! Have to say, he looks much better 😀
I am glad you like him. He’s going to use a quarterstaff and a bow.
Sweet! 😀
A buck n’ a quarter quarter staff? Sorry, couldn’t help it, Looney Toons is in my childhood
Mine too! That’s a good one. 😀
Loved that episode, can’t remember how it went, but do know how it ended 😀
Hmm,
it may be tough to keep the magic stuff secret if the boys are traveling with them. Hopefully they’ll be pragmatic, like Maeye.
One typo to report: while in past tense it may be said that it has passed noon, it is a very rare usage. In present tense, it is past noon. I think. Maybe I’d better check…
***
Well, I can report there’s not a match on Dictionary.com for “passed noon”, so you should probably go with “past”.
I blame my editor!! 😀
Thanks for the head’s up. i appreciate it.
Arayanna may have the chance to find out how cuddly our little protagonist is before the new day arises.
I like the way you think! Can’t wait to see where this all goes. 😀
Great job on the new voting incentive picture! Maeye’s inner badass comes through loud and clear in that one. 🙂
Thank you!
Thanks for the headsup, didn’t know there was a new invotive pic
It’s a good one, ain’t it. 😀
With Mae? Always 😀
Hey folks. Sorry I am a little slow with the releases these days. I have a belt test coming up in a couple of weeks, so lots of practice means less time rendering and painting. I should have the page done tonight.
Very cool – Best of luck on your upcoming belt test. Looking forward to seeing the new page!
Thank you! Hope you enjoy it. You seem to enjoy Maeye’s fierce side, so you should get a kick out of this page. 😀
I hope Maeye got some panties on, because there would be some serious flashing in panel one. Happened to my Girlfriend once lol
LOL. Actually, no, she doesn’t. I guess she needs some lessons in sitting like a lady. 😀
Am sure (sorta, kinda, maybe?) that she at least tucked the towelling-robe down to cover everything
Oh great, so Ryder is racist, prejudiced against elves, is that it?? Well fine! I don’t much care for round ears either!
LOL. He is a bit off. The comment was mostly meant to introduce the fact that there are other elves in this land.
Yeah, he didn’t come across to me as being racist, or prejudiced, towards elves, if anything, he was just curious, maybe ‘Sir’ Ryder had never met one before
Heh. I caught myself playing “Name that hairstyle” on this page. And Gus looks very familiar.
Gus is a Michael 4 character. I think he is Dan for M4. Lots of good hairstyles in this comic. 😀
