Comic for February 27, 2022: Soul Catcher

I love how Tom did not show the roman brothers dead but shows Detritus who would feel rigth at home as a resident evil mini boss.

Also there is one extra human hand in there...

First of all, there are some interesting censorship tricks in play here, Tom.

Second of all, is anyone else thinking that to be Sythe attacking the crystal? If so, follow-up question: Who's that intercepting Maren?
Maeve is so cute, they're thinking of renaming the Pokémon Ability known as Cute Charm, so it becomes "Maeve Charm."

I think Saria might have caught Maren’s soul when they passed during the transfer. In other words, Maren gets pulled out, Saria gets stuck in, but Saria catches Maren in the process. That might also be how Sythe (Assuming that is Sythe) found the place - Saria directed him there.

Possible, but I'm thinking Stoney dragged himself the rest of the way over there.

Well, Maren's soul is supposedly out of her body. Which would, I suspect, make it hard for anyone IN their body to do the job.

On the other hand, Detritus' plan is to put Saria's soul in Maren's body. Which would be kind of difficult if they don't have Saria's soul conveniently nearby. And I can just imagine what Saria would think of Detritus' plan.

Mrs. Nibbly to the rescue I think in the last panel.

Fur tone isn't right for it to be Sythe attacking the crystal. Between color and shape it's obviously Nibs. Grabbed a chunk of Stoney now that he's broken and used it.

From what she said, Detritus is using Rose as a regenerative power source. Is that why it now has a partial face?
Is Trace going to have to disconnect her from the life support system to stop that, killing her in the process?
If he finds out, will Euchre have a problem with that?

Looking forward, that would also mean no magic lessons for Raine.

Definitely Sythe attacking that crystal, it's too tan and not brown enough to be Nibbly.

Well, Nibbly led him there, so that's kinda out of the question, but having Saria's soul grab Maren's seems highly likely. My first thought was Red, but your theory makes more sense.

Looking again with my phone's brightness actually turned up, yeah, that is actually Sythe's fur tone. I do think his hands look a bit off, more stubby, but coloration (and size compared to a chunk of Stoney large enough to make a crack in the crystal) is correct at least.

Technically deathbyflossing's theory isn't out of question. I've contemplated a few times that Saria could be using Nibs as a host. I don't think it's a super high possibility, as I think it's more likely that Saria just didn't want Maren's body and as such is trying to give it back to her, but yeah. Not an impossibility.

So uh, any bets on if Sythe lives beyond this chapter?

If it's Nibs, either she has an eye for crystal structure that would make the world's best jeweler feel like a rookie apprentice, or she's a dire squirrel.

Hard to say. There is just too much going on.
Is the Crystal between him and Detritus?
Can Trace use the distraction of the *cracks* to attack Detritus.
What can Mrs Nibbly do?
And so on.

If he does, Maren owes him a 'thank you', though I'd say a kiss should be part of that thank you in my opinion. Even though Saria helped her as well.

Though I can't wait for Detritus' reaction when he see's Saria holding Maren there. Because just like evil Trace, he never considered that Saria might not want to come back.
A scene were Saria says goodbye to Rose however...

Knowing Maren, and the way she acts among other people, such an act of PDA would be so far outside her comfort zone that she may actually end up slugging him like some tsundere anime trope.

Honestly, if she does end up thanking him, it would probably be with a light, almost impercetable blush, while looking away, and Sythe would just smile warmly and be content with that. Of course, I could also see her just going OFF on Trace for this whole plan, assuming all non-magically-projected people survive.

And as for survival, I think Rose and Detritus may end up being casualties, after a short but very heartwrenching goodbye from Saria.

Maren just needs a wolf in shinning armor someone to melt her heart a bit. She is nice under all that permafrost.

Yeah i do not expect Rose, Detritus or Clovis for that matter to survive the chapter. Rose deserves some eternal rest in my opinion

When Rose says "My old body" is she referring to her age as in old/young or does she mean she has a new body made of magic and her old one was discarded?
