    Must Sundar be sooo….himself? Soon I’ll start to wonder how he manages to breathe without somehow hurting or embarrassing himself.

      Maybe he weaponizes his general buffoonry?

          Sundar’s serene-dipity allows him to stumble upon the most wonderfully unexpected discoveries.

      So far every bufoonish or otherwise inadequate character gets to have their day; Penk and E-Merl in particular seem to be on their way to some serious badass-ery. The writers seem to be taking their time with Sundar to be sure, but I’m sure we’ll see something good from him before the end of this chapter.

        Well, he IS a veteran of some sorts, so I wouldn’t be surprised to see a darker side of him at some point. Not that I’m rushing to call him stereotypical, but he sure seems like those types of characters that act goofy just to hide the fact that they’re actually messed up.

          Oh, forgot the pun. I have a feeling Sundarr will sunder some heads pretty soon!

      I don’t think that hanging out with strong adventurers makes YOU out to be a strong adventurer, case in point, Sundar. He needs practice, and the loss of an eye is no excuse. D:

      In his defense, it’s possible that he saw, them, but with his current lack of depth perception, he just misjudged his step…

      Wait until Sundar gets back home, and realizes that he lost his coinpurse and keys, and tries to think of where he lost them…

    We’re going on a Cultist hunt!
    We’re gonna catch a big one!
    I’m not afraid. Are you? Not me!
    Oh look! Some bodies! A big pile of bodies!
    Can’t go over it,
    Can’t go under it,
    Can’t go through it,
    Have to go arou-oh, well, I guess we CAN go over it.

      Kinda recognize that tune, shamed to say it, but can’t recall the name of the band (although it did have an early Che-Fu in the lineup)

        It’s an old kids’ call-and-response song. I used to sing it at summer camp.

        “We’re Going On a Bear Hunt”. My favorite chant as a kid.

          In Swedish it’s a tiger hunt. It was sung by a group called Mora Träsk, aimed at kids, but for some reason I never saw them as a kid. My sisters would chant “Nu ska vi ut på tigerjakt” for me though, and I thought it hilarious! /nostalgia trip

          Also found the one it made me think of: or at least, around the 2:05 mark

      He really fell right into that one, I’d say he stepped into a pile of it all right.

    I could very well be wrong, but this looks like the former site of Armagedda-con. We may finally get some answers about what happened from that portal. You know, besides ‘nothing good’.

    Devastation all around, radial pattern…kinda looks like something went thaumalurgical.

    Maybe the cultists sacrificed someone who was way, way too virginal?

    I’m now viewing Sundar as Shaggy from Scooby-Doo. He’s got the same “there’s nothing here” and then trip over a clue vibe going on.

      That would make E-Merl Scooby, and Gravedust Velma, wouldn’t it?

        I guess so, but I just can’t imagine Gravy saying “Jinkies!”

    I wonder if Gravy will sense that special sacrifice? Technically his soul shouldn’t stick around, since it was sent onwards to deathworld/ourworld but perhaps that was his Ba, and his Ka stuck around?

      Maybe one of the other dead cultists had some unfinished business.

      Let’s be positive.
      Setting the corpses on fire is a fast way to sort them into the true dead (won’t move), the undead (will move) and the not-quite-dead-yet (will start screaming).

          Stick a bellows pump in their mouth, inflate, and start asking questions.

          Then sit on their chest, deflating them.

          Repeat as needed.

    Okay, at the risk of repeating a post above (I haven’t read a single one, shame on me); How does he trip over a body? I mean, it’s right THERE.
    It ain’t even dopey-cool enough to call “derp-a-licious.”
