Annotated 41-5
The six-panel lead-in goes “Tranquil… tranquil… tranquil… tranquil… But what if… NO! TRANQUIL!!”
Awesome title by Flo.
I had forgotten that during this period, we rolled out the Guilded Age Patreon (which was and remains Flo’s baby) and contemplated tweaking the production schedule again. We knew we were headed toward the finish line at this point, and I think we knew that a printed Volume 4 wasn’t gonna happen. But we were still gonna get what we could out of our labors.
Fav comment, by Jean-Luc: “Damn, died in his sleep. Oh well, guess you could say Gravy od’ed on meditation.”
Was the title given by Flo due to her gamer background or is there a meaning to this title I am (as expected) ignorant to?
I mean it could be about “tracking” Byron’s spirit. Or I could be stretching
Seems likely. I expect that for that same reason, T missed the reference for his post’s image: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Legend_of_Zelda:_Spirit_Tracks
I imagine Flo chose it because Gravy is going to track Byron’s spirit in the spiritual world.
Didn’t miss it, but I probably should’ve made it an accompanying image. I may correct this at some point.
Flo worked as many gaming references into the titles as she could. There’s no other meaning here except the literal one, but out of its original context, it’s an evocative phrase.
