Cool hero’s don’t look back at explosions. Kendal looks forwards as he goes to talk with the people hunting him and his friends after knocking out a dragon.
To be completely fair, they probably don’t get many opportunities to be embarrassed by things ABOVE their weight class. Still not a great look, though.
It’s starting to get to the point where dragons can’t even be taken seriously as a threat anymore. They just get dunked on repeatedly and consistently.
(later) Vros: (beginning to regain consciousness) Damn that swordsman! When I get steady I’m gonna- (sees the volcano erupting, the gang fighting, Stefan hella pissed, and maybe Alinua and the Northern Wyrm joining in) … I’m gonna pretend to still be unconscious for a bit.
Yep, I knew Kendal would go for a more concentrated and pinpoint knockout punch compared to Tess’s flashy, brute force approach; the difference between punching dragons for a job and punching dragons for a life I suppose. I’m quietly hopeful that this subtle takedown, combined with Vros not contacting their superiors, means Paladin reinforcements should be a long way off.
With Vros out and Calian on the ropes, the gang’s exit via under the ocean plan is looking safer. But with Kendal leaving the shoreline to meet with Falst and Tess, he isn’t contacting the Northern Wyrm anymore; we still haven’t got a solid idea about how Alinua and her allies will play into things. Next chapter maybe?
Wait… “I fear your demigod is beyond my power to help”. What’s the timing on those story lines? I feel like Kendall walked out of the ocean right when the Northern Wyrm said that
Erin’s bag. Not even any of the things inside it, necessarily, just the bag, because I could store whatever I needed for any trip in there and keep it on me at all times. I would probably need to organize the contents using ordinary sub-bags…
If we’re talking in a marketing/merchandising sense, I’d like a toy spellbird you could connect to via app and use it to leave messages like an old-fashioned home answering machine/fax machine. A nice, flashy, centralized area to send messages to at home, instead of a boring voicemail box.
I would take a few plants Alinua grew (with her permission of course) and put them in a pot on my porch so I could meditate on Primordial Life’s positive aspects/actions.
Kendal did awesome! Poor guy looks like he’s (still?) hurting, though, so using the starfire might have aggravated his injuries or otherwise physically taxed him.
Only one page left in the chapter… and still no Alinua. Maybe the last page will cut to her making her way toward Rakhn, doing the Aurora equivalent of sensing a disturbance in the Force, and being all, “I’m coming.” But I don’t know how likely that is. Another possibility is Tess and Falst reaching and reuniting with Kendal. A third possibility is cutting back to Erin, Dainix, and Calian. One page isn’t a lot of space for any of those options, though. I’m curious to see where it will leave off.
I guess after that Sentinel I shouldn’t be surprised.
The Paladins really don’t know what they’re up against. Someone pointed out a couple weeks ago that they assume the biggest threat is the Elemental Magus and don’t realize the entire Floof squad is OP.
I would honestly not call Erin the biggest threat (unless he’s actually possessed at the time, and even then only because he’d be the only one of the group who’s, you know, evil.)
For mobile readers.

He is officially, Legendary.
I know life and fate are scary, but wanna be legendary~
Someone needs to match up aurora with EPIC
It seems dragon can’t stop getting embarrassed by beings way below their weight class. Sad.

Oh I was right, the chapter’s about to end
At least the situation seems to be slowly turning for the better for the floof squad.
HEH. Got hit with a classic “knocked out with a pressure point” it never fails!
Time for a nap. Good night, sweet prince.
YAY! One more plot point resolved!
Now we just need Alinua to come back.
If she isn’t here on Wednesday I’m going to strangle someone.

What was that punch? Last page Kendal was about to strike with his right hand, not the sword.
So where did the starfire come from?
Seemingly from the bones. Was a bit surprised too but Vash could do it so it makes sense.
Yup, mentioned I think twice, once way back in an earlier chapter by Alinua and once by Vash during the Tynan fight
Aurora Question #64: If you could get one item from Aurora, which would you choose?
Erins bag. History, magic, lacrima’s, apparently the most compfyest of bed supplies.
Kendal (sword). Not for any particularly sensible reason but because I simply cannot resist the urge to acquire any cool sword I see.
Erin’s bag. Not even any of the things inside it, necessarily, just the bag, because I could store whatever I needed for any trip in there and keep it on me at all times. I would probably need to organize the contents using ordinary sub-bags…

It’s like his muscles are made of Cotati metal fibers.

There once was a starfire boi
Who tactically kills Vros’ joy
Then walks out of the wrack
Without looking back.
He truly is the real McCoy.
Kendal knocked out a dragon.
Kendal. Knocked out. A dragon.
I guess after that Sentinel I shouldn’t be surprised.

That was most satisfyingly spectacular! Thank you for making this Monday so positive Red!
how do water dragons’ wings work??? I’d think they wouldn’t be very compact when folded, if they could even fold like a classic dragon’s wings
