    Sounds like they’re a little cold to strangers.

      A chilly reception, that’s for sure. And those eyes! Frosty looks, every pair of ’em.

      Uh oh: now this thread’s gonna snowball into a blizzard of puns. Before every flake drifts on down we’d better put this whole thing on ice.

        The colder, the better – I want my drinks on the rocks, and my puns solid as permafrost.

          Chill out man, I don’t know why your so cold towards the long threads. I think they’re cool.

            There is an absolute zero chance that these puns will get worse. I expect only the finest.

      You never know, they might be really ice. That one without the pants though has to be tough as nails, snow joke there. Must have been tough growing up in such squallor.

      Oh, please. What a blatant case of glacial stereotyping. All winter elves are isolationists? I’ll bet no-one’s been chilling to break the ice with these people in decades. Leave them out in the cold and then heap the blame on them – that’s the Arkerran way.

      Rimes are changing, people. Gastonia has already frost a lot of ground to its enemies and frigid viewpoints like these are only going to hasten its downfall. If we don’t flurry up and embrace a little change, we’ll be hailing the World’s Rebellion as winters of this war before the year’s end.

        Because they are hoaring around all the time, they make decisions at such a glacial pace… they won’t join the alliance until Hell… they won’t join for a long time.

            I think I will just lay down here for a while and be quiet… it’s so soft, and begins to feel warm.

      I dunno. I think it’s kinda “ice” of them to get a spot of background with this comic.

        He was probable the only one who didn’t have a vision of the future where he’d have to get up in the middle of the night.

        By the time everyone else had gathered he didn’t have time to get dressed and just grabbed his coat and boots as he legged it out the door.

      Yeah, they’ve got “neutral quest-giver faction for the overall cultist storyline” all over them.

    WE WILL NOT ASSOCIATE WITH THOSE OTHER ELVES. iNSTEAD OF BEING SEASONAL LIKE US, THEY REBELLED AND BECAME ELEMENTAL.

      Does this mean that shit is an element in Arkerra?

      …That would make a lot of sense.

    Ah, that brilliant “now” speech from Richard III. “Nooow something something something”. Oh, it’s brilliant, unforgettable!

      Had to think for a minute why that sounded familiar, but then it clicked. There was a total immersion video game in that TV series, too. Coincidence? I think not.

      Now all we need is Timothy Spall saying “That was a blatant clue.”

        I wonder if HR said to the people getting into the tubes, “don’t mix up your catheter and feed tubes, guys did that once and we didn’t notice for 2 weeks.”

      Psolo, are you getting old? I’ve heard that there’s 3 sure signs of old age. The 1st sign is loss of memory,
      …
      …
      Now what WERE those other two?

      I got it! “Now is the winter of dis continent” – he’s a meteorologist
      “How is the hinter of Miss Bon Temps?” – review of a Bourbon Street experience
      “Wow, who’s that sister in the big convent?” – if Shakira was a nun
      “Ow, there’s a splinter in my stick of Trident” – potential lawsuit
      “Yow. Is this sphincter through punning yet?” – yes, I’m done.

        “Now is the winter of the incontinent” – He’s a proctologist
        “Yow. Is this sphincter through punning yet?” – Maybe you’re done, but I’m not.

      Could be worse, they could join the cultists to help fight the alliance.

    Even less social is the elven tribe of Ki’blar, that live within their hidden great world tree and are rumored to be the greatest confectionery makers in all of Arkerra. Most of the population seems to doubt that they even exist.

    You know what, I’ll just see myself out.

      I couldn’t imagine why there’s so much doubt. After all, they’ve had lots of people stick their faces in through the knothole-window & film them to show on TV.
