    Aha, extremist shark man. I wondered when this uppance would come.

    Had a feeling that would happen. Of all the Rebellion leaders, HAMMERHEAD has always been the least amenable to reason.

      A pacific departure with a last display of good will from which the land sharks will get nothing in return looks to me as unimaginably reasonable coming from Hammerhead.

        I think of the pile of meat as a metaphorical “F___ you”, probably thought of by someone other than Hammerhead. (Or maybe it was Hammerhead. He’s got more smarts than the average landshark, even if he also has more stubbornness.)

        Agreed, I would have expected Hammerhead to take the notion of “severance” a bit more litterally.

    Knew right off that Hammerhead wasn’t going to kowtow to Penk. He BARELY listened to Harky.

    They’ll be better off without them.

    That moment when the dumbest and least capable among you threatens to take the ball and go home.

    Yeah, sure, Hammy, you go off on your own and get bombed into nonexistence now that you have no air support or war machines. The rebellion doesn’t need the sharks nearly as much as the sharks need the rebellion.

      The question is… is his motivation not wanting to make peace with humans? Or is it not wanting to make peace at all, because landsharks enjoy having implicit permission to eat other sapient beings? If the latter, his next move might be to offer his services to the Houses in order to prolong the war.

        Penk didn’t say you couldn’t kill Hoomans. Just not all the hoomans.

        You expect the landsharks to work for humans?

        Nah, with both factions against him, HAMMERHEAD’s next move will be to convince a dragon to take him through time and space to an alternate-timeline-slash-pocket-dimension-the-developers-were-never-really-clear to build an Iron Shark Army.

          Only to get killed and have that Iron Shark Army taken over by the cultists, which exist in every dimension. Time is a Flat Circle.

        I think it’s like the average psychopath in a terrorist organization, they claim to support the cause, but in reality just want to kill people and want the support of the organization. They aren’t really there for anyone other than themselves.

        The Land Sharks are the same way, they see themselves as Alpha predators and everyone else as prey. It is not about whether there can be peace, it is that the Sharks don’t *want* peace. I’d have suspected that if the rebellion had won, the Sharks would have turned against them anyway.

    So if Penk can manage to beat Hammerhead in a duel the land sharks won’t leave?

    That isn’t going to happen is it?

      I don’t think he is really going to fight that hard to bring them back into the fold. Especially if he believes other allies are coming to replace them (wood elves & gnomes?). And I suspect what the landsharks brought to the alliance was limited anyways.

    “….you did not eat him. You are weak.”
    “Don’t be a fool, he was as tough as an old boot. And I had a gnome right before the fight.”
    “…ok, we stay.”

    Hammerhead. Biggest, strongest of the landsharks, and master of the sickest burns.

    Well, yes, Hammerhead has wit, but it is a SAVAGE wit, so it’s okay. :/ And it’s not something he relies on, so it’s not weak at all.

    What a baby. :/ You can stand up for what you believe in by going your separate ways but to be insulting about it is rather sore-loser-esque. Then again, Hammy still probably feels insulted himself so I suppose I can’t blame him too much.

    Oh please bite him, Penk. Blood him and see if you can cause a feeding frenzy from the other landsharks.

    C’mon, you’re the new Warchief, the Sharks are valuable Berserker allies :o

    I wonder how much of this Penk knew was coming (from his time with the winter elves).

    As for the landsharks, I think this is may be their final chapter as a species. Once the war settles, the survivors and their descendants aren’t going to be big fans of a species that thinks of them as lunch.

    Wasn’t one of the Patreon characters a land shark? I don’t recall seeing him yet and if I’m right then this can’t be the last we see of the land sharks.

    Ooohhh, I just noticed they’re carrying Harky’s body out of the arena. Let’s cut away from the land sharks and focus on Penk’s conflicting feelings about the deathmatch he just won instead. Or something else. Just no land sharks pls.
