I'm expecting it to be like a guy said an update or two ago, someone here's gonna let slip that "the Hat" is Karl and Ruck is going to bolt the frick out into the crowd like a wrecking ball and cause a complete panic
He seeemd to go from ARE YOU KARL child murdering frenzy to calmly reading a book and firing precise barbs at the queen pretty quickly. I assume he's digesting not-Karl and just wants a nap now.

Not to mention he probably didn't actually eat the kid, physically or with venom. He doesn't need to eat flesh unless he's injured and a child has boring memories there's no incentive to suck those up

Agreed. He savaged not-Karl for fun, that's all.
If he actually goes in like a wrecking ball when Karl's name is mentioned, though, I am gonna cry with laughter.

of course he's not riled up now, he doesn't see a Karl to wish away
Nobody except our boys n girls even know Prakhuta exists beyond lizard stories possibly reaching human ears
Most everyone think Delicieu is a reclusive Aldish black tongue
Man just imagine how many of these invisible super mages must be spread around in any area the queen goes.
I wonder how many average citizens even know she has them
I mean it's always been pretty obvious. There are inevitably going to be people who will feel left behind in Cresce. Any society with such distinct classes with such huge gaps between them is going to produce dissatisfaction
So the black tongues are going to use F.R.E.D. the Morstorben khert hub to use the Grenzlan khert hub to somehow frick the dammakhert.
Cutter is trying to get in control of F.R.E.D. to do his own khert frickery with the silver.
Is he anticipating the dammakkhert frickery and wants in on it or is this just a coincidence.
If it's a coincidence, what are the odds of his khert frickery and the black tongue's khert frickery combining into an unforseen (except maybe by tittybird) superfrickery that will set the stage for book 2?
>I don't think Cutter really cares about the Morstorben khert hub
I think it's definitely his target, but what he wants to use it for is different to what the queen wants.
Isn't the queen his ultimate target? That seemed to be what the Aldish dude who was chewing out Lem earlier thought
Not everyone needs to have a 10000 IQ secret pymary plan, sometimes you just wanna kill a monarch to destroy a state the old fashioned way
Cutter isn't out to destroy a state, even though he may say so to his inak patsies. His aims are far more...metaphysical. The khert hub is undoubtedly his true goal.

If he modifies the Khert hub to turn men into lizards, I'm into it
Do you have an in-comic source for that or at least an Ashley tumblr response
This is the closest thing I can find to Cutter discussing his motivations, and I seriously doubt Delicieu's soul research is as easy to weaponize as walking up to a hub and whacking it with the silver

I'm assuming your fourth point is based off the Dammenkhert but that doesn't turn everyone in the area into Aldish castes it just changes the babies going forward. That would only work if Cutter could hold on to the curt hub indefinitely or if people were literally fricking as he messed with the hub (which seems unlikely given the lizards going full blown revolution around)

Isn't she quoting Bastion as he smuggled her out of Fachlyne? "Death is the Gods' Crime" is something we've seen Bastion say, and we know one of his big motivations is overcoming the concept of death; Timofey was his attempt to reconstruct his dead sister from memories sounded from the Khert, and Duane is self-explanatory.

She is talking about Bastion. He apparently was treating her when she was a plague orphan in Fachlyne. How would she confuse Duane with Cutter even in her death throes?

No, but it would stop more from being made, in theory.
That being said, I don't think that's his goal, I think he's basically hoping to break the khert.

Most of the time the Dammakhert seems like its used subtly, changing Alds conceived in its field, probably helping with the Aldish sixth sense, stings/monitoring/etc.
The Etelarch Curse showed it could also be used as a bludgeon, imprinting pure hatred that lasts even outside the Dammakherts range.
Plus it kinda fits the spirits goals, since if they convert Humans to Inak spiritually then their last suffering moments as they get murdered by the Silver won't be trapped in the Khert forever.

Basically this.
I'm expecting it to be like a guy said an update or two ago, someone here's gonna let slip that "the Hat" is Karl and Ruck is going to bolt the frick out into the crowd like a wrecking ball and cause a complete panic
I dunno, I think that pretend-to-be-Yerta game is over and Ruck isn't very interested any more.
I think Ruck was actually sincere in that offer, well, to the extent he can be about anything.
That isn't really how Ruck works. He can't drop a new obsession like that so easily
He seeemd to go from ARE YOU KARL child murdering frenzy to calmly reading a book and firing precise barbs at the queen pretty quickly. I assume he's digesting not-Karl and just wants a nap now.

We already know his backstory. He cleaned rich peoples toilets. And probably sucked wiener on the side.
I think the day will end with quite a lot of sacrifices, actually
Holy shit. This payoff is gonna be crazy. This shit is bananas.
>the day cannot end without a sacrifice
who's it gonna be
Bros....................
Anon says the darndest things
I thought he was gonna raise his children into fine adults and fight back the crescian armies
Not like this ashley
Not like this
He died like what, 7 or 10 years before the story even began.
Don't you hate when stories pull the
>and then he was always dead! 1!!1
Do they seriously still think the Silver is either Bell's or Sonorie's?
Does NO ONE AT ALL know that Prakhuta is in control of it? Because if so, good God.
I don't know who they think is controlling the silver honestly
Nobody except our boys n girls even know Prakhuta exists beyond lizard stories possibly reaching human ears
Most everyone think Delicieu is a reclusive Aldish black tongue
At least save tiddie priestess and Karl's hat.
Holy breasts
Divine bosom
Blessed breasts
Damn they’re big, though.
What's with all the political intrigue?
You must be new here
This is already a shitshow and nobody has even died yet
Oh look, The Hat is going to tell a sobstory that justifies all the suffering he's delighting in trying to bring about.
How did she know?
Bell isn't the smooth operator he thinks he is
But how did she know about Ufal and his husbands conversation?
She quoted him directly.
Queen's got ears everywhere friend 🙂
But Kasslynians hear with their souls.
OH, that
Pymaric flies on all the walls and buffet tables or something like that I assume
I loved that: shows that for all her casual front, she knows EXACTLY what's going on lol.
I think it's just a coincidence. It is a very natural adjective that someone from Ufal's perspective might use to somewhat-politely disparage her.
It's in quotation marks though.
I think
means how did queenie know Ufal called her a plotting fool.
And I'm assuming it's becasue he used to bust it out on her all the time like B.A Baracus. "YOU CRAZY FOOL! I mean... YOU PLOTTING FOOL!"
There's also the very distinct possibility that Ufal's own husband ratted him out. This IS Cresce, after all. Trust no one.
>I think
How did she know? means how did queenie know Ufal called her a plotting fool.
She has invisible murder mages after all so they're probably a few of them reporting interesting conversations to her as they happen.
The Patreon post specifically mentions it's a direct quote.
Man just imagine how many of these invisible super mages must be spread around in any area the queen goes.
I wonder how many average citizens even know she has them
She probably just replaced Ufal's regular buttplug with one with a pymaric listening device in it.
Next page she activates the RGB lights in it and his pants look like a christmas tree.
lol, that's Naomi Wu, the LEDs are on the skirt, not in her butt, FYI. She doesn't mind the joke but when people think it's real she loses sponsors.
>loses sponsors
Probably not Bad Dragon though
Is that anri?
Depending on how quickly Keon and the other captives from Hetr's force squealed, that'd lay out the plan pretty swiftly
Ashley has been hinting that Keon is pretty fricked up
Literally everyone else to die but Ufal better live.
>When was it ever OUR Cresce
So this basically confirms that Karl is a salty ladder-climber, right? We know he came from nothing but he seems to be rather bitter about it now.
I mean it's always been pretty obvious. There are inevitably going to be people who will feel left behind in Cresce. Any society with such distinct classes with such huge gaps between them is going to produce dissatisfaction
I think every single person on this page is going to die horribly before the chapter ends.
Please no, not wheelchair lady
