It's odd how he puts (theoretically) important lore and character-related details behind a paywall. I assume he deludes himself into believing any casual reader will surely subscribe to his Patreon for more of his stellar writing and beautiful, feminist porn. I also assume he'll slip the REALLY important stuff in next chapter via a copy-paste flashback.

Maybe the dick punchers weren't actually dwarfs, they were three-quarterslings or something, and nobody knew that because all the real dwarfs locked themselves away underground

I kinda like the idea that the dick-punchers were shapeshifters that liked being dwarves but got bored of being underground in the sexism pit and decided to make a dwarven society about the stuff they liked on the surface instead, like drinking beer and harming Deegans.

Like everything 'known' about dwarves being a flat out lie from shapeshifters just making poo poo up because it's not like a dwarf from down below is going to correct them could be cool.

lmao that she finally got a name, as part of a porn comic

We got the name of the guy who lead the spirit shepherds in-comic and we never even meet the fucker. But Cresca's mom only earns a name in porn of her with an OG Deegan.

Also it means the dwarves were an isolationist hyper-patriarchy at the time one punched Dominic in the groin. Never came up for some reason.

Remember how the dwarf guy who punched him in the dick was accompanied by a similarly angry dwarf lady wearing a tank top and not a burqa?

Yeah, that definitely seems to be the case. The timeline seems to roughly be:

  • Young Dominic - the OG Comic.
  • Epilogue Dominic - this is where Mookie's Patreon comics are taking place, and where Cresca's mom is pregnant.
  • Old Dominic - Dominic has been shown as white-haired and bearded when he broke magic, and in the immediate aftermath. It seems like Cresca was still a kid when this happened, so Dwarf childhood seems to last for several decades.
  • Future/Present - 200 years after Dominic changed magic, and the setting of Legacy. Probably closer to 250 years after the original comic and the Patreon epilogue, considering how old Dominic was when he broke magic.

So if Cresca's supposed to be a young adult, it's possible dwarves (and half-dwarves I guess) age 10x slower than humans in this setting.

To be way more fair than he deserves, it's also possible that the dwarf stuff takes place some time between 3 and 4 on your list. But it's also just as likely that he hasn't even considered it.

Nabora got exiled for fighting against centuries of oppression, which included the dwarven homeland being closed off to outsiders.
Actually, she said, "My exile is the result of a very special circumstance with your Uncle Dominic and Aunt Luna." I bet it's because of her relationship with Greg.

It's such a bizarre way of presenting that information. He's the setting's creator, so if he said Greg was the dad then that was it. Why does he think people want proof about it, in the form of a porn comic, no less? Like, it'd be understandable if he drew them as a happy family or something, but he acts so proud of drawing them conceiving Dookie. And that's not getting into the whole problematic angle of how Greg can't just be Dookie's adoptive dad, she has to actually be genetically linked to the Deegans for her to count as one.

Also feel it should play more into the concept of having a dad who is centuries dead by the time you become an adult.

But I suppose Frieren airing at the same time as that story would have made the parallels a bit too obvious, in a damning way.

I mean Star Wars is also all one family's drama - the Palpatines. Palpatine created Anakin and thus the Skywalkers are effectively a branch of his family, not to mention the Rey stuff obviously. Everything in Star Wars tends to revolve around Anakin or if you want to go one step further back, his father, just with differing degrees of seperation.

He's adopted and all you need to do to look like anyone in the Deeganverse is to copy their haircut.

Devin was on the list of designated Deegans in Snout's diary along with other names which I'm sure will turn up eventually:

So spirits get stuck if they have unfinished wants or business, or they can choose to stick around, and the former can be helped on by fulfilling their want or needs while the latter can be forcibly exorcised, but as we close the chapter we say that we just don't know why they're here.

So if spirits can just choose to stay around because they want to help, then who's to say that wasn't the abusive ghost dad's intention for haunting rock lady? Feels like there's a lot of nebulous area you can explore where a spirit's idea of helping doesn't match what their relative needs, or a spirit's idea of help being completely out of touch after a century has passed and social mores evolved. It's so frustrating how Mookie keeps introducing a crumb of something potentially interesting and then dropping it immediately because he's allergic to any sort of planning or longform storytelling.

That wouldn't happen because he's a Deegan and so the shepherd would know he's a good guy.

Pares teleported away with the force of how owned he was before this happened, I guess.

I wonder how easy it is for Jacob to grow or acquire a new leatherface mask to rip off. Wonder why he put the hood and scarf back on since he's alone with Devin who presumably knows what he knows like skinless. (I know it's so Mookie doesn't have to draw it but still)
