What were you expecting, her to just eat her buffer all at once? Its a chapter cover, like all the rest of the returns.

Gally posted:What were you expecting, her to just eat her buffer all at once? Its a chapter cover, like all the rest of the returns. This has been the longest break between chapters she's ever done. Not to say that a longer break wasn't probably needed after wrapping up the arc, but this took so long I honestly almost forgot about this comic. A 45 page buffer seems almost excessive, but I'm not making the comic and I'd rather she has what makes her comfortable. Given the average rate of updates it's like a quarter of a year in buffer. Still wanting a page of the comic after more than two months of waiting isn't exactly crazy; it's hard to get excited about a chapter cover that doesn't even feature a single thing we've seen before, and I at least wanted to be hype about Unsounded coming back. Instead I'm waiting for Wednesday's update.

It's actually impossible to maintain hype for two months, and I didn't build any from that page. If you did then more power to you.

I actually am pretty interested. Who do we think all these people are? Some of them are strangers. And those wings are loving boss. The fact that Ashley built the buffer up that far probably gives you an idea of how long the next chapter is; in general, it takes more than a week to draw a week of Unsounded, so she builds up the buffer to whatever level is necessary to make it through the next chapter without having any breaks or missed days. She doesn't like the breaks any more than anybody else, but it's that or go to twice a week (which would be excruciating).

I binged through the comic a couple days ago, so good timing. Reading it in one go the whole finale of the last chapter kind of mushed together a little, and it was really hard to figure out what was going on in a lot of the panels. That said I probably just missed the explanation somewhere, but how/why did flooding the tunnel save the day? Just by washing away all the people-goo that the silver was animating/feeding on?

Toma stabbed the silver's glowing weakpoints so it stopped trying to get people from the brothel on the surface and brought all it's mass into the caves, then the wall of water hit it when it wasn't attached to everything and it was washed away.

The ocean is also anathema to the khert, so once it was submerged and cut off from the city it had nothing left to sustain itself with.

IIRC the Khert is something specifically tied to the continent the story takes place on. By washing Cutter's silver-tongued magical construct out to sea, our heroes have effectively isolated it and cut it (and Starfish) off from the rest of the world forever.

This is why I love this thread. You people help keep things sorted for the rest of us and make the comic more enjoyable to read. Thank you! I was pretty hyped when I saw the cover--that's clearly the queen, and this chapter is bound to be all about her role and/or complicity in the silver weapon plot.

so uh, what's going outside of the continent then isn't the khert basically the underlying code of reality, to use an awful overused metaphor does the world just recede into endless sea?

Tollymain posted:so uh, what's going outside of the continent then If I recall, that's one of the big mysteries of the setting. Kasslyne exists as an isolated landmass, and exploration beyond it is difficult because traveling outside the Khert is deadly to hoomans.

Worse than deadly. Dying at sea is the equivalent to getting locked out of the afterlife in this setting (since the Khert's a part of that too). Given the apparent reincarnation aspect, drowning is basically eternal damnation.

The people in Kasslyne believe that the khert created everything. That does not necessarily mean that their beliefs are accurate.

I read the first 10 chapters of this comic over the past two days. It was pretty good! Unfortunately longform fantasy comics are excruciating to follow day-to-day. Welp, see y'all in four years or so!

I always gotta love the everyman criticizing the overly elaborate conspiracy. "Hey idiot, maybe just tell her to stay quiet, clerks are easier to persuade than bodies are to hide." I'd really like it if in every future palace scene, there's a little investigation going on in the background about either a mysterious disappearance or a sloppily hidden dead body.

By washing Cutter's silver-tongued magical construct out to sea, our heroes have effectively isolated it and cut it (and Starfish) off from the rest of the world forever. This is true for the regular khert. First materials (what all magic items/pymarics are made of) contain their own isolated khert (why Quigley can't cast directly on the silver when fighting it) and don't care about whether or not they're around the regular khert. That silver got washed away, but it doesn't care whether or not it's on land, and it will be coming back. The khert follows the ground, so it's not that it doesn't exist over the ocean, it's that it exists at the bottom of the ocean and is consequently useless for anybody bobbing around in a boat.

Might be a penance thing? "Remember the blood of those you've killed," or something. Wouldn't be surprised to learn Ashley's got a huge folder full of worldbuilding details she lets out on a slow drip. I've heard a lot of people complain Unsounded gets a bit exposition heavy at times, but that's mostly reserved for when it has to roll out and explain large concepts. It's a lot more subtle and economical when it comes to the little touches that make things believable.

Huh, does that mean that magical flight would be impossible as well? If it's simply an issue of how far away from the ground you are, that would imply that any pymary you take a few hundred feet off the earth would begin to fail, right?
