I'm talking dnd Erinyes, they're in the devil entry in the MM. As a matter of fact, I know a lot about Greek myths, and there are only three in them, they're servants of Hades. And I didn't get all my info from Percy Jackson and the Olympians!

And why would that be more horrifying?... I am sure the people of the future will see the works written/sculpted/painted/etc. and will say "What the hell did the people of the XXI century smoked to do all this (self censored).

And I frankly some of the ideas that I have seen being brought up in the RPG forum...well they are far more weird/disgusting than the birth of the greek Erinyes.

Nah. Too much sex, too many naked statues. Aphrodisiacs were definitely involved.

Luic and Iris will just have to make a little more noise than usual then.

I notice that Fir is in the tavern and we can't see Remus tied up outside. I suppose what with animal companions and all, dogs are allowed in more public places in Aequar than they are here... of course given the time period I suppose there weren't so many rules of that nature in place in our equivalent time either. If Remus is in there but obscured by the counter I'd like to think he's checking the floor for any food spillages.

Yeah, keep in mind things like "health code" and "workplace safety" are relatively new ideas. I don't think they cared about dogs in places like that.

I've had comics and pictures I've done with less detail than what she does in over 2 hours before. Please people, she will come out with the update in time.

Um... she's probably been making the strip over the course of the week.

I know this is off topic, but I've also been reading paladin academy, keep up the good work silverraptor! I'll post my character idea for the story on there.

Sorry I meant she just got out of school an hour ago so it would be unreasonable to expect the update.

Guys, I got home from school at about 3:20 and started working on the comic at around 4:00-ish (Looking at the news and stuff takes a little while, especially with what's going on in the world now). Actually, I do most of the comic on the day I update it. Sometimes I do the skeleton work the night before, but this week I didn't get a chance. So yeah, it takes about 2-4 hours per update. Speaking of which!

But I am hoping they'll both pass out and/or sing in drunkeness.

Or perhaps have a Belkar and V moment?

Love the guy in the back's reaction to the turtledoves, by the way.
