[FILLER] New Meaning to “Illuminated Manuscripts”
Note: So, we’ve hit the end of “Act One” on Volume Three… Which means it’s time for some lighter fare until, oh, the start of next year.
I was thinking of asking for guest strips, but for now, this’ll do. (I’m going to need to fill a page in somewhere to account for that double-page spread last week anyway…)
cliff hanger?….Noooooooo!
Aha, I get it now. Talk of an apocalypse if Jigsaw’s condition is made public isn’t a matter of hokey prophecy. It’s that now a lot of people see a way for immortality without going through the Endless, upsetting the power balance at hand.
Also vampires everywhere, which would be awkward.
…now if I can just remember who Keaton Masters was… The Name sounds so familiar…
*flails* Next year can’t come soon enough! Nearly all my webcomics I follow are taking end-of-the-year breaks. I get the holidays are busy but at the same time…so many cliffhangers! @_@
Pretty sure Masters is the Talmi super-djinn back on Areal.
@ Super: So… The otherworlders are aliens, specifically nonhumans. Makes sense, given the previous exclusivity of vampires. Perhaps whoever wrote the prophecy was basically saying: “Aliens are going to rise up and wipe out all the theocrats once they figure out that vampirism is universally available.
so you think they Keaton masters and cracked masters are the same person? . Seems reasonable.
I rescind my previous statements regarding the current line of speculation. An archive binge lead me to the story of how the Celeste and Djinn allied to drive off the Otherworlders. And that, of the former party, there were only nine survivors in the entire species. So… Yeah. No metaphor here, evil alien overlords coming to town to roflstomp everyone.
