A new character appears. And what he’s saying makes no sense. Yet. Actually, those of you who followed me WAYYY back might have already seen this guy! 
I will be adding a new character sheet soon.

Also, if you feel this page requires a mature filter, let me know! 

Thank you for reading!

Oh gosh, your panelling is so cinematic, it conveys the impact of the moment without needing explanation AT ALL. And owie, someone had a rough day, gargling there - yeah I'd run away too.

I would  not think this requires a mature filter. With the state of things on this site, this is sedate and PG

Fully agreed on panelling! Beautiful work, and not least the way the wounds are drawn and coloured.

As to mature filter, I'd have put one in place just to be safe forever and ever.

With this site it's better to be safe than insulted (when a moderator swoops in to finger wag at naughties)

Aa, thank you so much!!! I had so many attempts at the layout of this page so that it would be clear what is happening. Yup, Folquet had a very miserable day... Poor dear...

I'm glad to hear that. I'm never sure how to rate my work. It's not that I'm against filters, I think sometimes they're useful, especially for fetish stuff, but I've always viewed my work as rather mild so I would feel odd adding a filter. But I just want to make sure no one gets shocked/offended and if they do, they can tell me so that I can change it.

Gosh - that was unexpected! I think this is probably the most bloody scene in the entire comic so far! I still like it though - well done remembering about little details like the rabbit jumping away. Poor Folquet.... I hope he will be able to recover... somehow... eventually....

Oh wow. Well done on the injuries


Generally I am cautious when it comes to blood (not liking it myself), I usually put it under a mild filter But I don't think it's too bad, probably don't need one.

Thank you!

I'm so glad you think so. I'm also not a great fan of bloody stuff. And I feel my bloody scenes are rather mild, which is why I thought it's ok to post this one without a mature filter. But I would really not wish to make anyone uncomfortable or cause them distress, so if you ever feel that a page should be filtered, do let me know!

That was one nasty encounter! One is reminded of a particularly vicious cat playing with a mouse- To inflict that kind of damage with a sword would require the precision of a duelist - as if the intent were more to punish than to kill cleanly. And yes, why leave the sword- which I assume has the poor fellow pinned against the tree, with no major blood vessels severed, otherwise the noise of the encounter would have alerted the huntress, and there would have been no last words. Not to mention the lucky bunny- who unless all was quiet wouldn't have been there in the first place! A real puzzle, and I look forward to an elucidation.

Ah, that cat playing with a mouse idea is very poignant. As usual you are not far off from the mark! How do you do it? 
I don't want to spoil too much, but I can say that poor Folquet has been pinned to that tree for some time before Marthe got there...

How do I do it? You suffer from the disadvantage of being eminently reasonable and logical- your attention to detail is your downfall, if your intent is to mislead your readers.  Please don't be offended- it makes your story such fun to read!

akitku In reply to Azul-din [2019-06-27 11:17:21 +0000 UTC]

Ah thank you! Well it’s definitely not my intention to mislead. I’ve never liked being mislead by a text so I definitely don’t want to do it to anyone else. But I just don’t expect people to notice the little things, and indeed most do not. so it really makes me happy someone does! Thank you!!

I'm so glad to hear that. I never know what to think about such things. I don't wish to offend anyone or cause them stress. And I just don't know what other people's sensibilities are. So your words are very reassuring. Thank you!

Well, I know not anyone is a fan of occitan poetry, but that's still a little harsh...

Eh, whoever has done this must probably be in no financial stress if they can leave behind such a good looking sword!

Also, you did very well with the pose on the last panel! If it was up to me, I would have added a lot more cherry juice but as it stands I really don't think it needs any mature filter.


Shoot! I wish I was the first one to make a Rabbit of Caerbannog joke

Lol haha, yes, potery can bring the devil out of some people!  

Or the person who did this does not care for such mundane things as money! 

I'm so glad the last pose works well! As for the blood, yeah, I never know how much I should draw. It's not like I have much experience viewing wounded people. My knowledge in that area comes mostly from Thorgal comics!  

I did wonder if anyone will make that joke.

It's happening in the present. Around 3 weeks after chapter 1 ended. I should have added that in a bubble on the first page of the new chapter. I'm an idiot...
