Unsounded, quite possibly the (2nd) best webcomic I have seen.

[Jimorian]

Once again, an absolutely gorgeous use of the web as the medium for a comic.

I'll have to look, but I can't recall if the smoke eels from the Ch 2 scene were red or not. If these red eels on the last few pages are different, I wonder what that difference signifies.

[Forrestfire]

I really, really liked the way this update's layout ran. It conveyed the tone of the scene extremely well O.O

[ThirdEmperor]

Calling it now, this is the khert.

And it is glorious. Tied with Gunnerkrigg Court's angel of machines for best webcomic art I've ever seen.

[BRC]

OR this is some sort of mental world where Duane lives, and we're about to see Living!Duane.

[ThirdEmperor]

Maybe, but I'm betting khert, 'cause of the spell-creatures (what were those called) all over the place.

[Killer Angel]

This update is... gorgeous.

OR this is some sort of mental world where Duane lives, and we're about to see Living!Duane.

I was thinking about Duane's inner self, but yeah, it could be.

[Teln]

Or it could just be drugs. That is one weird hotel.

Do you mean the red snake things? Those are called smoke eels. They're actually ghosts (fragments of memory lost in the khert). Smoke eels specifically are memorys of despair and death and horror and pain and etc. That's why they're Unsoundeds mascots of death and destruction (wonder why they're inside Duane...).

Ghosts can "infect" pymaric devices and control them sometimes (this includes plods). You may get a cool personality like Boo but more most ghosts that infect pymarics are not so nice. When the smoke eels went into Duanes shadow I though he was infected but now...

I have no idea what those other creatures are. I thought they may have been ghosts or senet beasts that went into his shadow and now live there but than why is the tentacle sex pymaric there? Then I thought they might be Khert related creatures as seen through Khert-vision (TM) but than why didn't we see normal versions of any of those other beasts? Argh so many questions!

Adding fuel to the fire is Ashley implying (on Formspring) that his shadow has nothing to do with pymary and is something completely different.

Hey...did anyone else notice that the tentacle pymaric inside Duanes shadow has very human seeming legs .

[Welf]

I have no idea what is going on, but I'm in awe.

I didn't notice the human legs.

[Zen Master]

So .... the thingies could be representations. The picked-almost-clean corpse could be Turas, the leggy tentacle pymaric could be ... well the tentacle pymaric.

In that case I wonder if the two-headed giant shadow is Duane.

I'm still on the 'this is inside Duane's soul team' though. At least it would seem quite appropriate for someone as tortured as Duane to be so fubar inside - also, it's made of people. I don't think the Khert is.

We have a confirmation from Glass's (the creators) formspring account that the tentacle thing in Duanes shadow has no relation to the tentacle pymaric.

[Alias]

More human human sacrifice - but is she scrying the present or seeing the past?

[lord_khaine]

I really think this is something from Duane's past.

[123456789blaaa]

We have confirmation from the creators formspring that Sette is in the Khert. I have no idea if that allows Sette to see into the past or not.

Also, that symbol on the birds beak is supposed to represent the khert and it's mysterious, unsounded depths.

[Alias]

So how far down the rabbit hole has Alice... er,.... Sette fell this time?

[Killer Angel]

TO THE RESCUE!!!

[Kislath]

I'm SO glad I found this thread and discovered this amazing comic!
Thanks!
This is one of the best things I've ever seen online.

[Jimorian]

Considering what almost happened a few pages ago, it wouldn't be far fetched that Duane's thinking, "I've had to put up with Sette's crap for half a continent! I get to eat her, not you!"

[bmosley45]

Got a few pages in, very interested to see where this is going. I usually hate the anime/manga aesthetic, but I find this tolerable. Excellent art work and color. The website is beautiful.

[Alias]

So Duane had the beautiful wife and the intolerable mother-in-law. Waiting for the size 30 shoe of doom to drop and explain the zombification

Bad time to have a dyslexic moment, girlie.

[Killer Angel]

We child cannot use knives, it’s too dangerous. That’s way we play with magic!

[Alias]

Knives hell - that looks to be as dangerous as letting the kids play with field cannons.

[Adaon Nightwind]

Some walls may tumble, some hands burn, but still the way of khert I'll learn?

I feel with Mikaila here, but still.. she is indeed not ready.

[Killer Angel]

A flashback, inside a sidetrack... and still so interesting.

[pikeamus]

So glad I clicked on this thread; this is a wonderful webcomic.

Where the index page shows only up till the end of the third chapter (without scrolling down) I thought I was close to being up to date. Imagine my joy when I clicked the next button to find page one of chapter four, only to then discover "up to date" is deep into chapter seven. A splendid treat for the rest of my weekend.

[Teln]

I'm genuinely having problems remembering that this is supposed to be an extended flashback and not the main storyline. Anybody else experiencing that?

[Welf]

I remember it some times. And then it makes me sad for what will happen to Duana, and what might happen to his family.

[MushroomIsland]

YES - you people have a good taste in webcomics.
I found this comic last winter and had been loving it :D
..I should catch up with it now that school is over! (school...it's no good!)

[Teln]

Yeah. I hope Mikaila comes out of it all right.
