Teal We Meet Again
Jun22
Godspeed, Teal. May your path be always strewn with tasty mushrooms and unwary svirknebln.
Please check out Sean Harrington’s take on Bree in his Vote Incentive art this week, over at Spying With Lana! I love what he did with her!
:’-(
Princess?
Bree told him she is a princess when she convinced him to bring her to the secrifice site.
???
Looks like she’s awakening at the hospital and the quuen and the lizard are her medical attendants.
Meh, I’m not wholly happy about this type of “fantasy ends here, fantasy is mixed with modern real life” type of ending.
Who said it was ending here? Or that it was switching to the ‘real world’, this ain’t “Guilded Age”
Unsure about the reference: “Guilded Age”? I know it’s a comic, I also know that I’ve not been following it at all, so it’s meaningless to me. What I understand is that there’s a point in which Bree becomes Jen, who was supposed to be playing Bree all along in the tabletop game we briefly presented with, and then Jen’s car and Jen herself crash into the Delve and we are informed she is actually dreaming because her dream signal is active (the watch is scrambled) and now the most important secondary character, Teal, who has been along Bree since day two of the story (except when she was questing in parallel), bids farewell with no obvious reason at all, and the mystery conversation between Sephni and the lizard guy…
So which is your explanation then?
In the last couple comics it mentioned that Teal is going where the devourer they just fought went. Bree told the lizard that she was an elf princess when convincing them to make her a sacrifice.
Not sure about the car and watch thing though, I will have to go back and read the earlier comics again. 🙂
The devourer went back to “The Land of Grey” by the way….I forgot to add that.
Also read back and the watch dream sign and car make sense now.
Interesting thought, is the delve the dream or are both the dream….
True, I totally missed that bit: “The All-Mother told me…”, I guess it was not sufficiently dramatically underlined by an All-Mother appearance in thunderlight, words aren’t as impactful as images are.
But that doesn’t change much about the rest: dreams often come with some internal logic of their own, more so in literary form, where the author has to ride conceptually between dreamspace and wakespace in order to better convey coherence: real dreams are typically too surreal to feel real from wakespace, too constrained by the laws of physics and causality and the ability to rationally rethink what happened (unless they are scary maybe, then the emotional part of them takes over any rationality, and it feels “real” no matter what because you were really scared by it). Anyway, all I mean is that literary dreams are typically quite a bit more “realistic” than they should per the actual surrealism of our real dreams, whose internal coherence is often filmsy or even non-existent (yet they feel somehow coherent when we dream them).
But now the realism of Jen’s (Bree’s) dream is fading and things begin not to make sense at times. It’s the twilight zone between dream and wake most likely.
Lana looks great in this style 😀
Wonder how Moonie will feel being handled by her, considering how much fuss she made with Bree 😛
Thanks!
Sephni looks a little weird from the profile perspective … ?
Fox girl was my second choice…
And bye bye Teal.
Why teal goes away? She dies?
Read the previous page: she’s on a divine mission to follow the Devourer to where it came from.
I really hope that teal will return. It is one kind character and very beautiful.
Teal is an ooze monster, she just prefers to take human form. So this is second nature to her.
There are enough furries in this comic already … personally, would have hoped for a more traditional fantasy character race: dwarf, gnome or halfling … or if you wanted non-traditional: eladrin, githzerai, goliath or tiefling …
I really hope that teal will return. It is one kind character and very beautiful.
I think we all want to see Teal again. She’d have a place at my table any day and I’d provide all the mushrooms she wants. Other slimish delicacies might be a bit of a problem, but maybe BBQ ribs would be an adequate substitute.
As for why she’s been sent after the Big Bad, the story to date suggests that she, in addition to being cute and lovable and a good friend, can also be a fearsome killer. Just what is needed, no?
