Ufal's not wrong, but the inak have never had any use for First Materials, nor do they have any use for the ruined city on top of the falls. They can go repopulate the sites that used to belong to them, like the shrine that Rahm Ripa kinda sorta stole and turned into his workshop.It's a start, and it gives an option to those two-toes who have no interest in cohabitation with humans.

Decolonialism! Repatriation! \o/ I wonder how long it'll last. She's doing a great job dropping this while really edging with the burnination, that'll be what gets remembered more.

The Clag

I think this is the best thing we've seen the Queen do.

I suppose its not well known that Inak dont like the names humans give them, but I'm somehow a little surprised! I guess Sonorie is speaking to her human public. Great to see Ufal's snarky smile again, and what a clever move by the queen! Also why are the Fragg (? I forgot his name) et al crouching like that? Bowing?

Inaks have plenty options here; the ones that want to never see a human again can withdraw to the mines, the ones that want to have some contact with humans can remain aboveground, and the ones that want to work for humans can also leave the city completely. Something for every inak, I hope.

Honestly I'm most curious how this news might affect Ruffles

The rhetoric is very "be nice to immigrants because they do hard labour for us", but the offer seems pleasingly generous. Inak seem to enjoy a good cave! (They're so surprised and happy 😭 Wah.) And the Queen looking firmly past the circumstances of her sister's death is no small thing. Here's hoping her example behooves others to do the same.

Flann looks so surprised! Clearly the queen didn’t warn him of her intentions in advance. What a beautiful scene— despite the fact we’re in the middle of bloody public executions and a prisoner about to be set aflame… the Inak receive a just recognition and reward. Sonorie is clever, she’s constantly keeping the crowd emotionally off-balance. The primally-gratifying executions, followed by red fear and golden awe as she takes the stage, some controversial news that shakes up the status quo… I assume whomever is about to be burned is meant to be the final act. A satisfying and memorable show-stopper.

Fuck yes. This wasn't a concession I was expecting but I happily support! A ballsy play by the queen, but one that I think will work out well for Cresce. It's not perfect, but it's a start. Well played Sonorie. Now who's under that damn hood at the execution pole?!

so smart, giving them a place that isn't good for much else anymore AND bringing up Bell. Bell hated the lizards, citizens... you dont want to be like Bell... do yoooooooou?

I swear I have no idea what the real deal looks like, but the third panel looks like she's getting a golden shower. 🫨🙈 Sorry for that mental image, I wanted no part of it, now you get to suffer with me, haha.

It wouldn't be Ashley if the epilogue (that otherwise would be just some quiet tying of plot lines) didn't also have severe political shit happening. These Inak decisions/solutions are good, I support the queen. I bet this is not the end on the severe political shit, though.

Flyfly

Hmm... as far as I understand, Inak can use Breath system. Therefore, as I understand, they cannot properly participate in the Crescian economy themselves... this sounds like an interesting arrangement.

LordOfChains

Honestly, I think the two-toes would find a razed city and depleted mines a perfect startup. Caves perfect for shrooms 'n snails, and a city they can build to their own preferences if they choose to build into it at all.

Spider

Man I know its not your intention to mirror real world issues directly, but the concept of a second class of citizens on stolen land who exist to fulfill the jobs considered "below" the upper echelons who are simultaneously required for the nation's prosperity and also bemoaned is really resonating right now!!!!

Rainwalker

I’m happy for the inak. They deserve better of course, but this may be the best they’re gonna get at present. I’m sad the Litriya inak can’t join the others there, though
