    Default A little more Humiliation 1: Mess up enough, and be promoted to god

    Comic, err, volume 3 really, starts at http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/A_li...tion_/5509200/

    Previous in the history: Life with dragons (started at http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/Life...agons/4776647/) and Public Humiliation (started at http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/publ...ation/4776517/)

    A Little More Humiliation is the story of Lan Fiveclaw, a pooka shapeshifting necromancer, and his bonded dragon Warmwind. They are brothers (Lan is adopted, but his mother made it clear that family is family). Lan happens to also be the grandson of Hades.

    Public Humiliation ended with a war between two gods (Hades and Zagreus), with Lan caught in the middle. That ended with the old Hades deciding to retire, and Lan promoted to the new Hades, with Warmwind promoted to the god of merciful death. (Essentially, Thanatos).

    A Little More Humiliation starts with them settling into to their new life, and dealing with family issues. For Lan, it's only been a few days since the war. For everyone else, it's been 4 years. That's meant that Lan has a fully functioning office/staff/environment, but it also means that Warmwind got married ...

    Current "story arc" starts roughly at http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/A_li...tion_/5540196/ , or at least, the last one ended there.

    Additional supporting characters include Boo, Montigo, H.G., and a number of other pookas (primarily from Habibah's Song, occasionally some from Magical Misfits); the timeline in ALMH is about 2 years or so earlier than the timeline in Habibah's Song (i.e. -- when they are just setting up the colony where most of HS takes place).

    So the current subplot of "Hades wants to offer a gift, and is very clearly told no" + "Lan is feeling left out now that Warmwind is spending time with his wife" is wrapping up. http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/A_li...tion_/5548656/ Lan is delaying the start of his workday, so Paper Butterfly (Warmwind's wife) decides to occupy Warmwind for a bit.

    And, surprise, http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/A_li...tion_/5549186/ it is the daughter of the classical Hermes. Just as we have the grandson of the classical Hades.

    Angelia Hermes continues to talk with Lan. She wants him to come to Olympus, heaven of the gods; he explains that one person's heaven is another person's hell.

    Speaking of Hell, Lan shows off some of the local wildlife and scenery that he gets excited about.

    And the message gets delivered.
    Note the duck's submission number: 555 0 666

    So which side will Hermes take? The old school, or the new school? What will this ... battle of the gods wind up looking like?

    Hermes heads back to Olympus, with the message delivered. And, it looks like old-school god-behavior meets new-school god ... with an interesting comment.

    The war of the gods seems to be shaping up a bit. We had an unofficial post about Norse mythology and how everyone dies in Ragnarok a few pages back, and now we see that Pan knows that Zeus is lying in what he is saying to Hades.

    Hades, Thanatos, and Zeus meet in a room ...

    Well, that will be next time. This is just Hades and Thanatos getting ready to meet Zeus in a room ...

    Lan is learning how a trial/vote of the gods works in this setting. He managed to win a minor vote by accident the previous page.

    Looks like the old gods vs the new gods, aka ragnorok, is coming sooner than later.

    Lan and Warmwind have left the Chamber of Gods, and are preparing to get out of town.

    They are currently dealing with Poseidon, who initially started off hostile to them (she thought that death -- a.k.a. Warmwind -- was responsible for killing her oceans.)

    And yes, this is a new generation Poseidon. Their opponents is Hera, old generation Hera.

    The story is starting to look like it will turn into "old gods vs new gods".

    The Hades and Poseidon story arc has reached a pause point; Warmwind is now visiting his dad.

    https://www.theduckwebcomics.com/A_l...tion_/5574400/

    Spencer has met his grandson, Thermal. Thermal is a reaper, and a little on the hyperactive child side.

    And Warmwind is trying to remind them that healthy snacks include whole grains, raisins, and insects.
