The flashback to the note from 403 was to show how Crest would recognize Maytags handwriting in the note that says she is fine .

Just been catching up on the last few, what does Maytag's note in 2761 read?
"I'll do whatever it takes to make her happy [something] gold [something] promise!"
For most of it, I guess I'll just have to say that my feelings very strongly align with Crest's and leave it at that.Well part of the reason that Crest started to travel with Maytag and Bern was because he thought they would eventually split up and that he would be there to "pick up the pieces" with May, so it's not like he has been entirely forth coming in their relationship.
I am having thoughts about taking the pane with Bloody Mary eating May's arm and replacing the munching with "nom nom nom"
In the story's timeline, I think everything that's happened so far has taken place within a few months - while the story's largely been continuous, we have had a few time jumps, for example we're told Bern's ~600 mile journey South took about a month, and was covered in a single page.
Hmmm... well if you mean by 'threatened' force he... pointed the sword at her and she grabbed it, but not while it was in motion. Not sure if that makes a difference to your points though?My original point was that Bern would be willing to make the first move in a fight if stakes are high and she has no other options, I was using the confrontation at the healers as an example. I'm willing to agree to disagree on that example.
Polly already said that sorcery isn't allowed, but magic weapons are. If the sorcerer/sorceress doesn't have an enchanted weapon or know how to enchant a weapon, they're going to have a tough time.I wasn't really being clear when I typed that, it was her wording that got me thinking about it, the use of "isn't exactly allowed." She was probably referring to magic weapons when she said it, but I first read it as limited sorcery being allowed.
As I recall, the man pulled his arm back and swung the sword at Bern's head. She caught his arm and tripped him to take the sword away. At that point, Bern was more than qualified to demand compensation.
As for today's strip, the moral is, don't assume untested opponents are weak, and definitely don't mock them. You will regret it if you're lucky.
Actually, the "bodyguards" both drew steel and swung first. Sure they had the right to "escort" or forcefully remove Bern from the shop, but they did NOT have the right to employ lethal force.
LOL. Polly's the "Bowler"...I understood that reference.
...needs more skulls though.
