Bk1: Ch9: Pg11
Arayanna: What an amazing place that was.
Korinissa: What you saw was only a small part of our great city and our culture. There is much more to show you.
Arayanna: When we return, we will visit again. That I promise.
1b.
Maeye: Right in here should be just fine.
2a.
Arayanna: How do you find all of these places?
Maeye: Playing hide and seek with the kids, mostly.
Arayanna: Mostly?
2b.
Maeye: I guess I'll give this a try.
Arayanna: Come, Korrinisa. Let's get something to eat.
Maeye: Bring me a sandwich, please. I think this is going to take a lot out of me.
Maeye: Make it two.
Maeye: And some ale.
Maeye: And some cheese.
Maeye: And a steak.
Arayanna: Got it! Got it! Bring everything. Got it.
Three Days Later...
3c.
Endora: Scarheart. How are you? I was beginning to worry.
Kraghen: I am alright, thanks to Jaskar and you.
4a.
Endora: You appear to be healing nicely.
Endora: I have finished knitting the bones. There is little else I can do for these wounds now. They were too far along in the healing process
before you summoned me.
4b.
Endora: You will have scars.
Kraghen: Scars I can live with.
Kraghen: Thank you, Endora.
5a.
Jaskar: I see you're feeling better today.
Kraghen: Thought I would help out a bit around here, instead of just being a lump on a bed.
Jaskar: Sounds good to me.
5b.
Jaskar: What's next for you son.
Kraghen: Gotta be moving on soon. I'm...looking for someone.
6a.
Jaskar: Looking for someone...
Jaskar: ...To kill?
6b.
Kraghen: Ha! No. Not this time.
Jaskar: Good. Good.
Jaskar: Well then, I'd say a feast is in order. See you off right and proper, we will.
The Next Morning...
7a.
Arayanna: Ok. It's been four days. What do you feel.
Maeye: As far as I can tell, this thing is stuffed full of energy and holding.
Arayanna: Fiet, try to take some energy from it. Just a bit.
7b.
F: Oh yea! This will work!
8a. K
Kraghen: Thank you. For everything.
Jaskar: You are welcome, son. Best of luck to you.
8b.
Kraghen: Do you know the Red Barrel Inn?
Jaskar: Of course I do. I know where the good whiskey's at.
Kraghen: If all goes well, I will be returning there in a few months. If you are ever in the area, look me up.
Jaskar: That I will, son. That I will.
Question is: will Fiet (and the others) only take what they need? Or drain it in one long orgy?
They better make it last! Otherwise they are going to make trouble for themselves. 🙂
Could they hold themselves back though? That’s the question 😀
Oliver Krag looks good with that Mohawk (wait, is it okay to use that term? or is that now considered ‘cultural appropriation’ or some crap? like how ‘Eskimo Pies’ and ‘Eskimos’ lollies are going to have to be renamed and rebranded)
Yea…cultural appropriateness can kiss my butt! It’s a mohawk. 🙂
Oof. That reminds me of past injuries. Nothing you can do for broken ribs but wait. Still, better to be up and doing, as a poet once said. If you keep moving you don’t have time to hurt. Always hated the chest wraps, though. Something about them made me feel like I couldn’t breath. The wry humor is perfect—that combination of “Yes it hurts” and “I have had worse.”
I want to spar against Kraig. And then drink a keg of ale with him, and share stories of old wounds.
Out of curiosity, have you read the Havimal? It is an Ancient Greek poem about…well, masculin hospitality, I suppose. It seems to fit with the story here.
Norse, not Greek.
Well crap. Thanks for the correction! I originally read it as a translation into cowboy lingo (I have an odd circle of friends). I really do appreciate the correction!
I am not familiar with that poem. I will have to check that out!
And I totally agree – I think Krag would be a ton of fun to drink with. 🙂
Heya friends. Just wanted to let you know I am still out here. We had our annual music festival last weekend and this week we have been building a carport. I’ll get some fun material out this weekend and then get the comic back on track!!
Looking forward to what comes next 😀
Just saw the Delve invotive (of Bekha) and came here to see if you had done something in trade 😀
Was wondering who was looking at Capria, until read the file name (that chainmail is gonna pinch something fierce, trust me 😉 )
Does Capria (If it is her name) has some kind of dagger in her hand ? I have noticed that she also has a camel toe, nice. 🙂
Sword on her hip
I just spent the last five days binge-reading this comic.
I am very glad I could hog up a bunch of your time! 😀 Welcome!!
