What about the other option, that Ysengrin kills Eglamore? Like "Oh, Ysengrin, you badass motherfucker, Jesus Christ."

Fried Chicken posted:It's worth noting that in most of the folk stories, Ysengrin does end up dying, severely hurt, or otherwise end tragically. So maybe nobody takes him, and he's doomed to an eternal cycle of living as the butt of Coyote's jokes before dying in abject humiliation, only to come back again for more torment. That'd drive any wolf-tree-myth a little bonkers.

I'm liking this chapter so far. For some reason I had a hard time staying interested in chapters 37 and 38, even though they had some cool panels now and then. Looking forward to seeing how this works out. It seems like the story is about to kick into high gear.

I think I'm gonna grab a Ysengrin avatar but I'm gonna wait till the end of the chapter so I can choose good text (and also so I don't buy one then see a better one the nest update)

Dunno why that sprung to mind after seeing that pic.

Olivia42 posted:Oh no no no, I'm not ready for a major character death in Gunnerkrigg Court. Not yet. Isn't Ysengrin a general; have we seen him be a General to anyone yet? Feels like way too much of a plot point to not have happen. Jimmy Jims probably cut Ysengrin from his trees or otherwise stopped him. No matter, Ysengrin's pride and developing 'softness' is probably dead

Yeah, Eglamore is a really fast guy with a really big sword, but there's still only so much that can do to Ysengrin. I doubt that we'll see any major GC characters die this chapter, but it's still possible that Something Very Bad could be happening.

Eglamore was using a regular sword during that confrontation. Who knows what'll happen if he breaks out that crazy glowing sword strapped to his back at the beginning of this chapter? Not that I think anything awful is going to happen.

This lead me into a long wikipedia time-waste that lead me to conclude they'd both be classified as a Kopis. Tom's a sword nerd, if I recall, so I'm sure he's put thought into them.

I sure hope nothing serious happens to Ysengrin. I wanted Annie to learn some humility, not watch a friend die or get maimed in front of her. Less than 4 hours until we find out what happens. We have no clue if Surma had any interaction with Ysengrin right? That panel where Elgamore yells "Surma" made me wonder if they had any.

Considering Surma was the Court medium, it would've been weird for her to not have any interaction with Ysengrin. Especially considering he was probably less crazy back then.

Interesting. The teleport symbol and sound effects are the same used by Brinnie back in Chapter 22.

DarkCrawler posted:No but he can literally loving teleport, apparently. I was being kind of half-ironic in my statement, but that is definitely some serious air the man caught. As for the teleportation, I think that was more of an etheric predetermined effect or something that was tied to the stick-thing and targeted to him, not any innate ability of his own.
