Well, when magic is literally tricking the universe into thinking that one object has the properties of another, your own properties are liable to be at risk

I like how Mathias doesn't even question why his son is black now. "Eh, probably just a phase." Yes I know that wrights can probably notice the glamour but this is funnier

Winalils? Who? Seems like I should just wait for the chapter to finish and read it in one go, because I've already forgotten what was going on

Lord Winalils is the weirdo wright who gives Sette the pymaric that allows her to control Duane when he's asleep. It's implied he has something to do with Stockyard and whatever the real reason is to send Sette to Cresce.

Well, nice to see Rahm confirmed as mean but not evil. Not hugely surprising, but nice.

He's also the dude who created the spell to keep Elan alive (that's the subverted Crescian guard that helps Sette get across the border). His first name is Bastion. Despite being in the comic for like four pages, he's clearly one of the big movers behind events.

It's implied he has something to do with Stockyard and whatever the real reason is to send Sette to Cresce. He's also probably one and the same with this "Delicieu" that keeps getting mentioned. Rahm's description of Delicieu makes it sound like it's someone's pen name and they're definitely tighter than spooky ghost kid is letting on (Delicieu's research is described as being obsessed with pain; when Winalils gave Sette the zombie-control amulet, she said that it "smells like pain" or something similar.)

I'd argue with him being Delicieu because he was shown to be the black-tongue doctor working with the plague victims in Falchyne - he was the one who rescued Cara, the little girl who got killed in chapter 2. It's a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment. http://www.casualvillain.com/Unsounded/comic/ch02/ch02_06.html She's also referencing things he said when Duane finds her here: http://www.casualvillain.com/Unsounded/comic/ch02/ch02_57.html Which is where she remembers him saying that death was the gods' crime and that nobody should have to die, and that Cara had to live. Just strikes me as the guy who's rescuing kids and trying to cure a magical super-plague is probably not the same dude who's doing horrible pain experiments. That said, I have no doubt Winalils's hands are dirty, just in other ways - he shows up in the background of Duane's life during the flashback and he clearly knows enough about what Duane is to know how to control him during the day. He's the one who tells Sette Duane isn't a man but a tool.

Just noticed Sette in the background of panel two. Actually, she's closer to the center than Jivi and Matty. Wow, how did I miss that.

Sharteshanians in the last strip, now this. For being so all-inclusive, Crescians are pretty loving racist.

Duane isn't really a racist. He'd be fine with any black people living in Alderode, especially if they were Ssaelit. So, in other words, renounce your culture and religion and you'll have no problems with him!

Unsounded is good at making most people different shades of grey (or in some cases, different shades of disgusting tar-black). Matty's cool tho. Uaid too. Uaid might be the least racist character, to be fair, he eats people of all races equally.
