Not to be confused with Salt and Pepper.

Sasarai isn't the Bishop, but he is a greater Bishop than the masked gentleman. The Bishop would be Hikusaak. I personally think it was a typo, though.

That was actually an interesting way to get both sides what they wanted. The villagers didn't want the Harmonians to invade, the Harmonians didn't want to invade, they were only looking for the Fire Bringer.

So when the villagers only move was to send out a kid who was clearly not the Fire Bringer just to make them go away, the Harmonians got what they wanted: confirmation that the Fire Bringer wasn't in that village, so why bother invading?

Turns out the answer to "How'd it get burned" is the True Fire Rune.

Though I do have to second (fifth?) the idea of team wizard cats!

Yeah the text is the main thing I'm wondering about, to go with it.

If we can get out of the speculation for a minute, I like how Geddoe brings up his hand and goes 'Yo bitches, True Fire up in da house," with his glove on. Really, how did they not just go right back to squabbling? It's not like they could see the rune on him.

There's scenes where it's kind of not an issue and then there's stuff like this, where the actual visual appearance of the Rune is driving things, in which a glove should be a serious problem. They gave Chris an entirely separate model, they couldn't make a Geddoe one that's almost identical but trades a glove for a rune? Really?

Joker has kind of a difficult design to express in words. Overall, he comes off as a sort of kung-fu-master-that's-fallen-on-hard-times-and-gotten-old-and-maybe-a-little-washed-up-and-fat, which feels pretty fitting, though his large build is actually kinda misleading given how agile he seems. The kung-fu-master feel comes from his basic shirt/pants get-up combined with the long ponytail, and considering he uses his fists in battle, it works well. The effect is dampened by all the baubles and jewelry he's got on, which is actually good. It brings to light a sort of identity crisis, as he's got a kind of cultural clash going on because of the more Native American imagery in the necklaces. They're also much more colorful and chaotic than his fairly plain (aside from the trimming) threads. Why is this important? Because we're not actually sure where he's from; he's probably a Harmonian of some sort (though he doesn't really dress like one), but Harmonia encompasses a huge territory and a ton of conquered nations. He seems to have made a home for himself in the defense force, though. It also implies that he's traveled a lot, which is backed up in the game by his vast knowledge of runes and the like. More on that whole thing in a bit.

I thought that tree was just some weird abomination that grew ammunition-fruits? The Punishment Rune was on Lazlo at the time, so I don't think that one was involved. Soul Eater is accounted for too. What other True Runes were in that game? It's been so long.

Use the proper parties for the main run because it feels kinda to have them be all "we're gonna kick rear end together!" only to see everyone benched.
