Heh, I don't think Maeve is going anywhere without Adira.

Re: Comic for July 12, 2020: The Rose Garden
Back on topic. As for the Heart's Desire angle.. I wonder if Trace would use his own memory of Saria for that, or if he would try to bring her soul back and put it in Maren's body. That said, Heart's Desire was a spell designed for assassination, and like all spells, requires a power source. Under ...

Re: Comic for July 12, 2020: The Rose Garden
(I kind of wonder if the color in this is in error, or if there is a reason it's red and Secret!Rose is speaking in green? Maybe Tom thought the red was too close to the Smoke Hallucination's text and wanted to make sure we know it's coming from Rose?) I think that's a separate entity from Rose. I ...

Re: What made you smile today? Round 2!
I am not knowledgeable on American law. But even then I was surprised that was not the case. It has been the case at the state level in much of America for some time, but not federally (nationwide). The decision has been pretty controversial for complicated legal reasons. It is a win, but it opens ...

Re: Comic for June 27, 2020: The Painting Pt. 2
I just don't buy any theory that Rose is still alive. Trace was an aspiring necromancer, guys.
I'm not sure those are eyes?oldfox1406 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 07, 2020 2:03 am Maybe Trace cut his proverbial necromancy teeth with Euchre.
Anyone else notice the red glow of Rose's eyes and the additional red glowing eyes behind her??

Re: On Keidran Lifespan and tangential subjects
how come Keidran have a functioning civilization if they live onl 30 years?. This is the very first occasion that I've seen THAT question brought up or addressed. The question is whether the keidran can be competitive, culturally, technologically, or diplomatically, with longer-lived species. Not w...

Re: Comic for June the 20th, 2020
Also, sexual activity is/was less physically dangerous for males (mother-childbirth mortality rates), so there wouldn't have been near the focus on that aspect for males. The danger for males is the financial risk which I already mentioned earlier in this post. True. I think there was also some con...

Re: Comic for June the 20th, 2020
If the age of consent were based on brain development and the ability to understand and weigh consequences, it would probably be about 26. And the human species would probably go extinct. I have often said that the only sensible age of majority is 25. Anything else lacks a scientific basis. As for ...

Re: Comic for June the 20th, 2020
Again, that's assuming their mental development and acquiring of skills happens at roughly the same rate. My theory is that, with a naturally shorter lifespan, they may learn techniques and skills more easily. Magic that would take a human 3 years to learn, a keidran might pickup in less than 1, fo...

Re: Comic for June the 20th, 2020
Life expectancy is a normalized mean average. Human life expectancy is best understood as a series of plateaus. If you're born, you have a good chance of dying, but if you make it a week, you'll most likely make it a year. If you make it a year, you'll most likely make it to five. If you make it to ...

Re: Comic for June 13, 2020: Working Together
The impression I got from "detritus" was that it was Rose referring to the guests in the room as "detritus". Very menacing and dehumanizing. My impression was the other way around - that something was referring to Rose as "detritus". i.e. the remains of old Old Trace's...

Re: Comic for June 13, 2020: Working Together
Tom once said, in response to a similar question, the keidran languages (high keidran for nobility and such, and low keidran for everyone else) are made primarily of growl and grunt-type noises. How that would actually sound, I have no idea, but that's what I remember. How old is that comment? Good...

Re: Comic for June 10, 2020: Hitting a Wall
Can't say it was something I thought of beforehand, but magically-reinforced/protected walls makes sense for Trace's manor. Also, Is it a trick of the angle or a (minor) art oversight that you can't see Nat's bindings in the last panel? Or is the "Huh?" in response to something other than...
