Oxxidation posted:So this is basically going to be the Worst Day for Duane. He woke up from a dream where he got to watch his daughter die again, finds himself with an unconscious Sette and a dead half-eaten guy, knows that both are his fault, is about to engage in a zany cover-up to get out of the love hotel before the cleaners find the mess, and when he finally manages to limp out of there on his shattered leg, he's going to find out that he is, technically, in Cresce. He may think it's his fault, but it's really Sette's.

Twenty Four posted:It was stated that there will only be several more pages in the chapter, and Quigley won't be in this one (unless that changed), so even if he does come looking for Matty we likely won't see it for a month or more until after the break. Duane is all locked up for the night, so he is out. Sette is still close by, she might help her new recruits out of the bind she just put them in, but I don't see her helping out a cop out of the goodness of her heart, especially one that wanted to put her in jail before. Its the fall through the floor spell Elka used earlier to trap the police station with.

They hosed up, bad. They made a super weapon that responds to trauma, and then decided to start torturing a lich that's made out of trauma right next to it. Basically, their nuclear pile might just have gone supercritical.

DrSnakeLaser posted:Maybe this is a dumb question, but why did everyone ignore the silver growing out from the boat? Even if they weren't thinking it would go off so rapidly, how would the boat manage to sail with tendrils rooted in the building itself? I'm just bothered by the efforts to unblock the passage and not the magic-immune metal. The reason is that Stockyard just killed the only person in his gang that was any good at risk assessment.

TheCIASentMe posted:You all are also forgetting that Sette blew a hole in the Khert earlier. That probably was a big reason why the silver went off prematurely. The catalyst isn't angst, but suffering. Duane has suffered more than anyone living can endure, which is kind of the point.

TheCIASentMe posted:Huh, sorry missed that post there. That's not right, either. Every night Duane relives his daughter's death and his disfigurement/murder. It's not a dream, but the event's indelible mark in the khert. He is experiencing the worst day of his life every night in a manner that no living being (with the one off exception of Sette) can experience. So yes, he does have it a bit worse than everyone else.

Darth Walrus posted:Interesting to see Winalis doing something unambiguously good during his introduction, too. I wouldn't characterize it as unambiguously good, he's almost certainly employing untested magical techniques that he devised. The fact that his spirit-minion calls him on the lie that he's only trying to undo the damage done earlier suggests that any good he accomplishes is just a happy coincidence.

GunnerJ posted: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? I would be shocked if it wasn't the latter.

PetraCore posted:Yeah, I figured. And, I mean, I find Sette to be charming and I know a lot about her internal struggles, but Jivi's seen less and is also in a position to care less because he actually has to deal with the consequences of her actions. Making fun of her being illiterate is beyond the pale, but as emotionally mature as he can be, he's also still a kid and Sette also stomps right on a lot of his biases. It's easier to just write her off as a Shart than it is to fully get into why she's not emotionally prepared to stop looking for the approval of a parent who isn't doing what's best for her, etc. Hey now, Duane is doing everything he can to protect Sette when he has the mental faculties to do so.

TheFuzzyLumpkin posted:Called it. Bastion spent the entire scene with Anadyne getting actively tortured in the background and didn't do a single goddamn thing about it. Spent the entire scene trying to talk Cutter down off the ledge instead. Bastion sucks real real bad you guys. What scenario is there where he tries to rescue Anadyne that doesn't result in him being torn apart by the silver beast he's inside of? The very same silver beast that pymary doesn't work on, mind you. His only shot at helping anyone lies in trying to talk Prakhuta down. He's still a dirt bag, though.

So, Cutter's endgame isn't just to kill all humans, but to destroy their souls and cycle of reincarnation via the khert, right?
