Yeah I actually checked back because I wasn't fully following what Iori was doing. Going over it all at once it was awesome, this comic is so good.

It also might be that it doesn't take a whole lot of the total amount of kinetic energy in the waterfall to get poo poo done. So there might be an effect but not an easily visible one because the energy you need to gently caress a dude up is a really small fraction of the energy all that water flow has.

Wasn't the idea behind the plats being holy that "the gods can't bear to be apart from them for long" or whatever? How does that square with uh I forget the name of it, but Duane's pseudo-montheistic/humanistic religion that ~half of the nation follows?

What the gently caress is even up with this dude. He came out of nowhere and at first I figured he knew Duane.

Honestly I don't think I'd mind as much if he had some kind of pre-existing connection to any of the characters.

I'm leaning to the possibility that he didn't actually commit any murders or anything irl, he just got stuck in the septic tank for souls, absorbing all the worst bits until he believed it was all him.

TheFuzzyLumpkin posted:Tensions seem so high between the two faiths in Alderode that that seems unlikely, though. The reasoning behind Duane's assassination is SO plausible for the political situation that I don't see it being interpreted as anything other than exactly what it looks like, especially since it was that same day the temple got confirmation that the Gefendur were trying the rebalancing plan. The gamble of the false flag here is that nationalism can counter religious enmity. Sure, it's all well and good when Aldish Gefendur want to take advantage of a loving plague to politically sideline the Ssaelit, but getting help from goddamn Crescians? gently caress that! If anything, they'd have to abandon the re-balancing just to show their loyalty to Alderode and distance themselves from Crescian terrorists. Dunno, that seems plausible to me.

This reminds me that in one of the really early chapters, Duane found a belt buckle or something from a Crescian soldier that said "Republic of Cresce" on it (iirc). Was that retconned or are they going with the Roman principate "We're totally a republic even though we have a monarch, honest!" thing?

Reading this update was the exact moment I realized that I hate the thing where one character is getting up in another's grill, who seems to be trying to de-escalate things, and the first one is like "no gently caress you!" and then the second one points out some nearby calamity that renders the whole conflict moot.

So do all Black Tongues actually get castrated or is he just being snarky?

So, I just realized another facet of the Duane/Mathis father friction dynamic: Mathis realizes he's likely to die before Matty is fully grown.

Was unsure of the exact ages and what would be considered "fully grown" but sure. It is central to his character, but I never put together how much the idea of competition to be his son's dad could eat at him for that very reason until now.

It's interesting to me that Saelit doesn't have any presence outside Alderode.

reignonyourparade posted:I agree it was a false flag, but I think it was the opposite. It was an attempt to refocus the aldish gefendur's hate on Cresce, because everyone hates Cresce and if Cresce is trying to divide us that means it's the time for unity. Yeah if nothing else an obvious result of that attack is that the Aldish Gefunder would pretty much have to denounce it and acclaim their Ssaelit countrymen as kin just to not be associated with Cresse.

Meanwhile Sharteshane is a literal den of scum and villainy but trundles along stably with organized crime and big business (but I repeat myself) running the show behind a puppet king.

I really figured it meant Sette is a lot older than she looks or knows.

I don't remember why but I found Sette really annoying when I first started reading this, so I can totally understand people not getting past the first chapter. I think "skip it and treat it as a flashback later" is good advice for getting into Unsounded in that case.

The problem isn't that he's not likeable, it's that the way he's not likeable isn't even interesting.

Okay, thanks, that makes perfect sense. I guess I just hadn't paid attention to the captain before this, thought at first he was mad for having the glamor removed which was, uh, confusing.

TheFuzzyLumpkin posted:I'd imagine every plat squad has an adult heading it up, much like Duane and Jon do this one. So while Duane killed one caster down there, it's not a guarantee he killed a child (and I suspect the story will go out of its way to show that to the reader at some point, even if Duane himself never finds out.) Cope goes for some big asks from her audience but revealing her main character to be a child murderer is probably too far even for her. Kinda seems like Duane was cool with zapping some kids though.

PetraCore posted:...it's very possible the effects of the curse just made Mallory say what he knew would hurt Roger the most, although I believe parts of that to be true. Very possible. But there's no way for Roger to ever know what was true and what was the curse, as far as Mallory's feelings towards him, and nothing changes the fact that he had to kill the man he loved. The bit about "you're a coward leading scores of people to their death while you don't want to suffer anything" seems based on very recent frustrations. It's likely that what Vamps said about Roger's reputation as why he sought him out is true because it predates any feelings that could develop. What I'm getting out of this is that the curse is able to effectively amplify all the things that ever bothered you about or turned you off from its target such that even if you know what it's like and it targets a person you love, it can still make you hate them.
