It's a bad omen and generally regarded as slightly evil to be born at sea, so it's not something you ever advertise. There's a superstition that the khert can't reach the baby to put in a soul, so a stormbringer slips in there instead. Sette rejects this outright; Jivi isn't nearly interesting enough to be a secret senet beast.

I love sette's explanation for not being prejudiced towards Jivi 😂

Great job with everyone's body language and expressions in this one.

Duane's not looking too hot; least they could've done woulda been to put him through the power washer, get some of that old dead skin off. On an unrelated note, I want that teapot~

Mister Scarecrow

I love those little, proper superstitious world building touches. Is a child born at sea an ill omened Stormbringer child? Or is the type of person who'd be born at sea in this world more likely to be a hellraiser on land because dealing with the sea at all is already dicey socially and so on? How much of the superstition is observable fact? How much will the superstition around their birth play into their upbringing? Great bit.

I'm sure his sainted mother has never tormented him about it :)

Woaaah took me a sec to even clock that was Duane in the 2nd panel. He rlly doesn't look good, kinda reminds me of Anadyne near the end-- are his freakin eyes missing now too?!

Ashley

Yeah, they took his eyes out, took all his clothes and braces off. He's a frog pinned to a board for study.

Ashley! I just finished my first short story, and I finally understand what you mean when you talk about the characters being fully formed in your head, and you just Put Them In Situations and let them act naturally. It really leads to charming writing like Sette insisting Duane has been whittled down to only 35% dangerous here! By the way, Sette's own estimate of her danger level would be well above 50%. Perhaps even 1000% or 2000%!

Ashley

It's true! Once you understand your characters well enough, they write themselves! You just sit back and make sure they get somewhere worth the trip. Congrats on your story! :D

Ashley I'm begging you. We're so close. You have been edging *me specifically* for perhaps ~2 years now (I can't recall when you first divulged "Duane Dissection" but it was in the midst of the last book's finale). PLEASE tell me we are seeing the frog SOON 😂

Khyrberos

(mostly /uj to be clear, just being playful 😅)

Ashley

You're building it up so hard, man, why do you wanna see Duane's bones so much? :D We'll finish this scene with the kids, then there's a long scene with Tree and Jaer, then we'll get to Duane :) I'm drawing it now.
