It was kidnapping iirc (for purposes of blackmail), not slavery technically (still a bereavement of freedom though), and it happened long before he joined up with Bra Hilde.
Yeh, methinks Sundar looks younger here than on his first appearance. I think this is a flashback of before the Peacemakers even formed. Not 100% sure though…
Judging by Sundar’s use of the past tense either she died or she stopped believing in him. Knowing the things Sundar would go on to do that’s admittedly not entirely conclusive.
That’s actually something I’ve never understood- in the grand scheme of Fantasy, why are humans always seemingly buddy-buddy with Elves? Like with the wood-elves here- humans are short-lived, destructive, impulsive creatures that breed far too quickly and have no reverence for nature. Elves should hate! humans! Whereas Orcs almost always share those features with humans, along with having a ‘love’ of warfare and violence- you’d think, after the initial border wars and crimes against humanity/orcdom, they’d get treaties set up and form a single solid unity.
Dwarves at least have a similar sense of industry, but they’re still too long-lived and iconoclastic to really see humans as anything more than little insects flitting about on the surface.
So much for bringing their forces to bear.
hsss
No no no. Bear, not Snake.
No no no. Human, not bear.
Nice to see a guild dedicated to opposing gankers for a change.
Definite proof that this world is really becoming independant of HR’s control. :p
And then he got involved with child slavery.
…I have to wonder now. Maybe it was a ploy or something.

Are we sure? This looks like a hell of a flashback.

Mmmm, he has both his eyes here.
I think this is AFTER the child slavery, but JUST before he lost his eye.
Thinking about it, we did see another example of Orcish slavery for the Peacekeeper side, so this is likely around a similar timeline.
This appears to be pre-eye patch
I SMELL FLASHBACK
I agree
Most story arcs seemed like flashbacks until the great reveal (If you are a new reader, do yourself a favor and read from the start).
Actually… EVERYTHING is a flashback if you remember how chapter 1 rolled.
Oh, I like her.
…She’s gonna die, isn’t she.
Yeah, I give her two pages, tops.
Harder than Mel Gibson’s career.
Yeah…
To Good for This Sinful Earth (well, VR Simulacrum/Alternative Universe).
She might as well be portrayed by Sean Bean.
Actually, as of last year Sean Bean has been damn near indestructible.

Wow, give ’em hell Sean Bean!
Like a ‘red shirt’ on an away party…

Sending them off in the same direction as the fire may not be the wisest plan. It looks like the wind is fanning the flames towards the forest.
Don’t worry its not like a wall of trees will cause a fire storm.
You have my old gravatar! Thief.
Well, at least this explains the Flag of Fightopia.
Ah it does indeed! !
The spark and innocence of youth ? So disgruntled veterans and older people can go sod off.
Nice dick move, Brunhilde.
Veterans (gruntled or otherwise) and old farts should have learnt how to protect themselves, youths haven’t had the chance to learn yet
Pretty sure she doesn’t have one.
Does anyone else notice that Brunhilde’s ax looks kinda like a stylized B?
That’s probably where they got the inspiration to turn her cloak into the symbol for their new nation
Brunhilde is an instant badass, and awesome sort. Somewhere in the neighborhood of Optimus Prime.
Don’t mean to offend anyone, but do the orcs look like apes to anyone else?
They do, very much so.
As an orc, I find this greatly offensive.
Hey, Humans look like apes too.
Sundar and her are gonna end up fighting in a field of white flowers aren’t they?
If Sundar is Big Boss, then Brunhilde is The Boss.
Humans defending orcs? Well now I’ve seen everything

Orcs are too similar to humans for humans to like.
They are a mirror and all humanity sees is itself.
We see the orcs again! I was wondering where they’d got to.
