Doing What is Best

Hey everyone!
So we've implemented a new spam prevention system and it seems to be working great so far! Let's hope it stays that way :)
And it looks like we do not have any more questions to answer on our question forum thread. Maybe next week!
Until then, enjoy the comic and have a wonderful week :D

Wait, so Solaris has only been on the council for a few years? Posted on August 27th, 2012 at 01:54AM Reply

I think the reference to a few years ago can be forgiven. Solaris is losing his mind after all. I guess the first thing to go was his ability to keep track of time. Posted on August 27th, 2012 at 02:07AM

Really?
Naturally, you'd read from left to right. I don't see why it would be difficult to keep track of. Posted on August 27th, 2012 at 10:49AM

well, when you read a book, you read the top line first...
but yeah, after you get over your original confusion "what was founded?!!", and you look around, the veil is lifted and the monst- the clarity reveals itself. Posted on August 27th, 2012 at 11:18AM

The problem is that so many people go either way with it. There's no universal "you read left to right!" with comics. Some go the Up-Down route, some go Left-Right... and then there are the occasional manga-style comics that reverse it to Right-Left. Those are ALMOST as bad as ones that are inconsistent, which Aikonia has been at times. :/ If it's meant to be Left-Right, keep it Left-right forever. No occasional Up-Downs to screw us up.

The thick plottens!

On a more serious note, this isn't hugely new news, but it's nice to actually hear it from Solaris. And he looks and sounds genuinely distraught. I don't entirely forgive him for sacrificing Ariel to the monster (is there a word for them yet? I'm inclined to call it a "demon", but that doesn't really fit), especially because he did it to stop Ariel and Syd, and there's no evidence they were actually doing anything bad. But I guess I feel a little more compassionate toward him now, assuming he's telling the truth and genuinely didn't mean for Ariel to, well, die. Or whatever happened to her.

I don't believe that he didn't know it would kill her. There was that little taunt the 'demon' jabbed him with, about unreciprocated love right before it shoved him into magica...I think he's covering his ass here. Posted on August 27th, 2012 at 05:29PM

Yeah, calling it a "demon" doesn't fit at all. I agree... if it turns out to be a "demon," I don't think I'll be coming back to read the comics. :/ Posted on September 2nd, 2012 at 03:53AM

@Chreiya sonia ...um, ok? Posted on September 2nd, 2012 at 03:55PM

Got two powerful magi plotting against you?
Sacrifice one to a demon lord and have her kill the other one.

I don't believe him. I think he knew perfectly well that Ariel would be killed by the creature. Posted on August 27th, 2012 at 05:27PM Reply

It's okay, I figured it out the second time around, but...
...Maybe consider a shorter name? because you can't read the first couple words of your comments on account of the name overlapping the comment.
Just a thought. Posted on August 29th, 2012 at 10:08AM
