He fears his fate too much, and his reward is small, who will not put it to the touch, to win or lose it all.

Hey, I just realized that the second-to-last panel has Misho giving himself Limit for what he did to Secret.

Re: Keychain of Creation 3: Not-a-Keyblade Understanding & Falafel-is-Awesome Prana C
I said he was gaining limit, not that he was having an actual Limit Break. An innocent (Secret) is suffering and he cannot relieve said suffering.

Re: Keychain of Creation 3: Not-a-Keyblade Understanding & Falafel-is-Awesome Prana C
Wouldn't he be gaining Limit either right before or during his "stern teacher" act, as opposed to afterward?
Also, this sort of situation is exactly why Misho should look into Cosmic Transcendence of (Virtue). No more Compassion checks over the little things, like emotional abuse.

Re: Keychain of Creation 3: Not-a-Keyblade Understanding & Falafel-is-Awesome Prana C
Thanks for saving us the effort . BTW, I'm not familiar with setting lore - I presume Secret was born to her father's mistress, how are extramarital affairs treated in the region?

Re: Keychain of Creation 3: Not-a-Keyblade Understanding & Falafel-is-Awesome Prana C
Oh. Well, I guess Secret's dislike of homewreckers makes even more sense now. Although it'll be interesting to see if her mother was the seducer, the seduced, or some other relationship.
If the seducer, and Secret born out of wedlock, then Marena and Secret's mother-daughter-esque relationship takes on a new angle.Thanks to Andraste for the Void avatar.

Re: Keychain of Creation 3: Not-a-Keyblade Understanding & Falafel-is-Awesome Prana C
Her relationship with her father seems quite good, I doubt she'd feel that way if her father had seduced her mother and left her. It is possible, but not too likely.
Judging by the circular ornament, the one in panel 35 her father - it's kinda hard to tell with stick figures, but the lack of a skirt would indicate a male. If he didn't raise her, then at least he was quite close to her imo.Last edited by The_Shaman; 2010-05-17 at 08:23 AM.

Re: Keychain of Creation 3: Not-a-Keyblade Understanding & Falafel-is-Awesome Prana C
I presume it's a personal necklace and not a social status thingy, so yeah. I suppose it would probably indicate he raised her, though why (and how) he'd do that and not recognize her as his child is a little weird.

Re: Keychain of Creation 3: Not-a-Keyblade Understanding & Falafel-is-Awesome Prana C
Her mother may have been one of his servants, so Secret got to spend time with her father, but was never recognized as his daughter. Maybe he had a son born shortly after her, and wanted to recognize him more than his slightly older daughter.
Maybe he divorced Secret's mom to marry the homewrecker and then secret got born out of wedlock 6 months later.
Maybe Secret's mom is some form of Godblooded, so the prenancy took longer than normal, so nobody believed her that the child was her ex-husband's because it was 13 months after he divorced her.

There's also this, where Nemem Yi gains Limit as a Sidereal always does(yay arrogance!) Otherwise, nothing off the top of my head.

As I understood it, the black frames comes when the Exalts threatens to Limit Break, not simply when Limit is gained.

I think her plan was along the lines of "grab blade if they seem too weak to guard it; let them keep it if they prove to be strong enough to defend it". Either outcome was "just as planned".

Re: Keychain of Creation 3: Not-a-Keyblade Understanding & Falafel-is-Awesome Prana C
A black frame border indicates that the character's actions are being driven by the curse - in game terms, it can (and often does) mean that they've done something that is mainly intended to manage limit.
Here, Misho might have gained limit, but the Curse isn't driving his actions - it's merely in the background. As a result, there's no border.
For the same reason, there was no border when Ten dropped a dead body on him.Last edited by lesser_minion; 2010-05-18 at 12:07 PM.
