But i dont really get the part with the third floor :|
She says it to the whole group - that includes Trace.... It doesnt make sense to me, except she believes he is an imposter in some way (to be fair if your master returns after a long period of time with a following of people he absolutly hated when he left, then i would also be a little bit suspecious).
Or is there something she wants them to find so she gives them a small hint to do it?
It's Trace's house. No part of it would be off limits to him. And he would know that.

(The question is, has Rose been informed that Trace has little-to-no memory of his previous life?)

Thats what i mean - why would she say that to him if its his house and she "works" for him.

Thats the other posibillity. She was informed and the people who said it her are on this floor or she worked on something there herself and just doesnt want them so see it.

Or could it be that she is hiding someone there? I mean she can operate a little more freely and after Traces disappearance she could do it in under everyones nose - so to speak. I cant think that she would work for the other side of this war :? - but who knows Tom has surprised us many times now, so lets wait and see :wink:

She isn't talking to the whole group, just to the guests. She'll probably move to address Trace on the next page, unless the comic cuts to a new scene, altogether. I wouldn't be surprised if she led Trace upstairs, herself, once the guests have been taken care of. There's no way that she can prevent Trace from going anywhere he wants, so it would make no sense for her words to be directed at him. If there was something sinister going on, then a polite request would be the most worthless countermeasure imaginable -- it does nothing to deter the subjects and only serves to make them curious.

Maybe your right - i just went from the second panel where she says "Please note, the third floor is off limits" and looking at Trace.

Lets wait and see.

My point was, Trace knows that this is his house so would know that the statement doesn't apply to him. She needn't bother with extra words to exclude him.

(Unless he was not allowed there for some reason that existed before his departure and still exists, in which case his amnesia would cause him to incorrectly think the 3rd floor is open to him. But in that event, IF Rose knows of the amnesia, she would have to explicitly INCLUDE him. Which would look even more suspicious, so maybe she does that a bit later in private conversation. On the other hand, Trace is the Duke and this is his house! So he could simply overrule any order keeping him out.)

(What the Duke does, by definition, complies with the Duke's laws. If he seems to be breaking his own laws, either you are misinterpreting things or the laws have been changed and you aren't up to date. So maybe ask for clarification. But don't arrest him.)

I think my problem is just the second panel that i maybe misinterpret. It just looks like Rose talks to Trace and everyone that follows and also how she talks with everyone. Thats just what got me wondering.

It could be that things changed while he was away, that someone told her he has no memory (heck maybe even they said something about it and we just didnt see it) or something else. Like i said, for me it just looked a little bit off...Lets see what will happen in the next pages - i have a record for being wrong the most time :wink:

Could it be that Natani is hot and bothered by the prospect of wanting to share a bed with Keith?

Cue next morning, and that "morning after" sketch — you know the one — becomes canon. :twisted: :roll: :wink:

I doubt it, her reaction to his and Flora holding hands suggested she was surprised by their action. Then again, perhaps she has seen the wanted posters and just didn't believe them due to her experiences with Evil-Trace.

As for the third floor, perhaps they had belonged to Saria and Evil-Trace keep them like a museum?

My guess is the third floor is built for dragon visitors, and anyone rushing through a bedroom door suffers an embarassing plunge to (or through) the second floor ceiling. :oops:

With regard to Rose's willingness to let the visitors define their own sleeping arrangements, I'm reminded of the "No-Tell Motel - Student Trade Welcome!" sign near my college, lo these many years ago.

How hilarious would it be if Natani went 0-100 certified pregnant overnight?

Everyone's reaction after assembling for breakfast the next morning...

Just Bing searched that and it brought up a bunch of porn. Is that accurate, or do I need to wait until I get home to properly research this?
