A fantasy webcomic. Updates M-W-F.
their exports include pigments, grain flour, and… other things you can make with a windmill
the storm is literally right there
there is no way things are not going to go terribly.
Up next: somebody notices them.
So, important questions– Does Windscrest have a miniature golf course? And if so, does it have a tiny windmill?
Plot twist: the entire town is a regular golf course
wow I’m just gonna spell my own name wrong aren’t I
Of course! I’m sure nothing will go wrong talking to the shopkeepers!
I give them at most 2 pages until something goes wrong
Bet you 10 pesos Kendal gets mistaken for Vash.
He just walks into a bar and EVERYONE GOES SILENT
“wait no i SWEAR i’m not vash i’m just….. a cosplayer??”
That or they notice Alinua’s tattoo and freak out.
I’ll take that, and bet you an additional 10 that people panic when they see Alinua
What kind of pesos?
Uh oh. Doom flag. He’s too young to know not to raise doom flags!
I’m so glad that I binge read this whole comic in the past two days because now i can read this and understand everything.
guys, GUYS. The people they trade with… HAVE ALL BEEN KILLED.
…they’re going to get noticed.
I’m imagining something like this…
Merchant: Yeah, no, we’re not gonna get any traders. At all. None. An entire town was wiped out, who would trade with us right now? There are obviously more important problems, and that town was our biggest trading partner anyway…
Alinua & Kendal: Hi
Merchant: What the actual FRICK is this
I’m very interested in the story of why he decided to tie his hair back
It’s sorta hot
Someone will think Floofy Boi is Vash – for good or ill hijinks will follow :3
I can’t wait for it X3
This is gonna be hilarious
Socialization skills aside, they do know that they aren’t exactly inconspicuous right?
Hide any pitchforks you might find
“probably won’t even notice us” you haaad to go and say that didn’t you
Yep. Jinxed it, bro.
I’m really loving this comic. Keep updating, Red, you’ve got this!
Now: “Probably won’t even notice us”
10 Minutes Later: “Oh shit they noticed us”
Comig up: they get noticed.
I think they are going to meet cool glasses guy I really wan to see that
And now we get to see how many points they put in their Charisma stats.
aaaand then there’s a giant CRACKABOOM as hubris nerd gets asploded on the horizon
Good use of a ranging mutative magic storm, guess it works on the same logic of why people build settlements near volcanoes for their fertile soil.
Wonder what other towns do with the storms proximity, warmth all year round near the fire section, endless supply of fresh water near the water section, an constant lightning backdrop for fantasy rave parties, lots of uses.
TL;DR: Floofy boi and Pink floof go to a town, where Floofy-boi valiantly fulfills his civic duty of doing exposition dumps. He also tricks Pink floof into thinking she can talk to people. In other news, the scary magic storm is also looming in the horizon TOTALLY innocently and definitely won’t cause a disaster.
“They probably won’t even notice us!”
You’re a god’s doppelganger with said god’s divine sword, and Alinua is a bright purple elf with a magic tattoo disease, and both of you have very floofy hair. One of those three things is going to stand out to people.
Kendal. You just jinxed it. I’m going to go and ignore this for a few hours so I may properly prepare myself.
the truthful alt text containing zero sarcasm:
what could POSSIBLY go wrong
Might say that you had a derp moment.
I was contractually obliged to make this comment.
“They probably won’t even notice us”, said the floofy haired man inhabiting a body that used to be a god.
Press X to doubt.
A quaint little town on the edge of the storm
On the horizon is it’s lumbering form
Windcrest – biggest trading partner is vash
Vash – was completely buried and destroyed
Windcrest – “we probably won’t get any traders, all cities have more important things to do, any our closet ally and trading partner is gone”
Floof squad – “Hi”
Merchants – “WTF”
Next predictions!
Will the flood squad…
A. Get chucked in jail
B. Get worshipped as Vash
C. Get chased out by an angry mob
D. Learn the real treasure was the friends we made along the way
E. Get interrogated by guards
F. Find mysterious colors unlike any seen on earth
G. Transition to the opposite gender
H. French
I. Steal something
J. Get blamed/framed for something they didn’t do
K. Experience nothing, just walk through unnoticed
L. FRENCH!
M. COMMUNISM
Way to jinx it, Kendal
On the other hand, they got a pretty nice crash course in socializing
Also, this 2019 page hits differently on the other side of the pandemic
