        At this point, his only option is to bow out.

    Did not see that coming. Thot we would just switch to sepia and keep another plot element in the air.

        I was expecting them all to be transferred to Cyberia… where Rachel would greet them.

        Oh, well. Syr’Nj being the badassest is always a good thing.

    I don’t know why… But that goblins hands on the left looks off to me. Is his wrist broken or something? :D

      I see it too: the angle between lower and upper arm suggests a different position for wrist and hand.
      Or it would, if it wasn’t a mutant cultist goblin exposed to years of corrupting black magic.

      It would mesh together a little better if his left had had a little highlighting like his arm. That’s okay though. He’s just so evil his left hand no longer can reflect light. :)

    I see Syr’nj has decided on a different method of peace. Peace via overwhelming firepower.

      Sadly, you can’t have peace with those whose purpose in life is to make everyone dead.

      She’s been plenty willing to use force where needed and/or peace can’t be used. There were all the earlier chapters, plus the ones prior to Homon first unleashing the ragemonster where she would have joined them smashing cultist faces but had to face the greater of the two evils: politics.

      She offered a surrender, and declared it singular. They ignored it. There can be no peace with madmen, for themselves nor others.

    Bolt to the face and magicks of their own to counteract the cultist magick. Awesome response.

      Syr’Nj probably wouldn’t say “hear” instead of “here” for whatever reason, though.

        They came through the portal to kill everyone who wears one of those blasted ‘The Cake Is A Lie’- hoodies.
        The irony is killing me.
        Or was it the iron?

        Shutting up now.

    Just now noticing the two elves are named after mall stores; Claire’s and, of course, Hollister.

      They’re as dumb and shallow as most people who go to those places, so…

      (No offence to other Guildies – you’re not in the “most” because you’re here)

        Clair seems a bit of a cloudcuckoolander, but not dumb, and definitely not shallow. Hollister seems very down to earth, for a sky elf. And they’ve been pretty much established as the most sensible sky elves the Peacemakers have interacted with (even if they could use a little of Caneghem’s cynicism).

    Bah. HR can nuke Syr’Nj without breaking a sweat…

    …or at least, he could effortlessly nuke Syr’Nj if he wasn’t fleeing for his divine existence from Ultimate Rage Monster Frigg…

    What are the odds that Syr’Nj has worked up an improved version of the berserker cure, one that she’ll administer to Frigg after the bulk of the combat is over?
