    The souls of the common good are far heavier than any axe-pauldrons, Byron.

      The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, or the one.

        Do we look like Jeremy Bentham to you?

        Screw that.
        If the needs of the many are so heavy, they can bloody well carry it themselves.

    “Okay, new guys – what’s your names?”
    Red cap: “They call me the Garden Hoe Gnome”.
    Farmer: “I’m the Grim Raker”
    Red/white stripe cap: “I’m Waldo. I can remain undetected in almost any crowd”
    “I’m Badass Bayonet Bert”
    Red head: “They call me Dum Dum Dugan. Where the hell are the rest of the howling commandos?”

      Not giving your last name is also a good strategy.

      Just ask Daigo.

    I see Rachael has the Sorting Wimple and E-Merl is worrying that he’ll get stuck with Hufflepuff.

      Well, close: that’s his repaired hat and he’s worried what it will look like (like, did she embroider bleeding hearts on it or something)

    I need crutches to walk at the moment and I can tell you if one of them had a sword blade for a leg I would have chopped my toes off by now!

      The blade in question also has a gun trigger on it. Seeking to one-up Final Fantasy, the good people at Hurricane have apparently created the crutchgunblade.

      It’s also a terrible way to treat a sword.

        It appears that the blade doesn’t actually touch the ground. It’s attached to the crutch, not serving as the crutch. It’s basically a bayonet for his gun-crutch. Though I’m not convinced the trigger is for a gun. Could be something else. Either way, it’s a pretty cool crutch.

          The trigger’s presumably to pop the blade to where it’s useful.

          And even without making the blade the weight bearing point of the crutch, it’s still going to get fouled and damaged by leaning the crutch forward at all, walking any ground that’s not perfectly flat, hard-packed (or paved), and free of obstacles.

            I guess a mechanism like that of a butterfly knife wasnt feasible.

    At first I thought Byron was a giant in the villadge of little people and the whole monologue was about not stepping on them.

      Heh, for a second I thought it was just a giant mural of Byron above the door.

      It could be another holodeck-type area, like that magic dining room, only this one is where Byron keeps all his figurines and collectible and toys and stuff. Which all look like real actual people. What? Not creepy at all.

    That’s why adventuring is an individual or small-group activity. People who want to risk way more lives go into the military.

    And so giant Byron opens the massive window on the front of the building and looks out at all the little people… immediately above his smaller other self… while an even more Titanic Giga-Byron lurks underground in the dark.
