Hmm, does this mean that they now have to kill all these schmucks, to keep them from talking? Because I don't see any other way to prevent a Wyld Hunt at this point.

My thoughts are that they may not recognize that Ten is traveling with four other Exalts - Celestials at that. In which case, this may turn into a curb stomp battle in reverse -- at the risk of completely blowing their cover. We shall see. Talking their way out may yet be a possibility; it...

I don't know; she said she wasn't a member of the Bronze Faction, and sharing this kind of info with them would be potentially damaging for her side, wouldn't it? If Nemen Yi supports the goal of Misho and company rescuing the Keys, then having the Bronzies hunting them down would not further...

So, other than Misho and company being identified as Anathema, having Ten's cover blown is probably the worst thing that could have happened to our group in the Realm. And it happened in their very first encounter - nice going, guys! Those Stealth dots are paying off. :lol: Edit: On the TV...

That's true; I keep forgetting about Conviction.

The way I see it is that Ten, for all his strengths, still has the basic attitude of Exalted towards mortals: we're Gods, you suck, and therefore you live or die at our whim. Misho seems to be the only one who shows any genuine compassion towards them (natural, given his Virtues).

Indeed. I'm going to remember "Ablative People Shielding" for later.

^ Better if you show only the bottom row of panels. Including too much context makes the demotivator lose its impact.

I agree with Synapse. It seems odd that Misho would be unaware of the nature of the Wyld Hunt.

I read it as Misho's Compassion kicking in - he'd be perfectly willing to help end all the suffering on the Isle by getting everyone after him instead of each other.

Oh, wow, absolutely brilliant use of meta-humor to pull off that transition. Like others, I did not notice until the blog called it to my attention, then I was rolling. Well, done Jukashi! You're going to get an inflated ego from all these compliments if you keep it up... It's also occurred...

The pendant was predictable. I love Marena's reaction to experiencing the release associated with forgiveness. "Hold on to that feeling," indeed! I don't mind the character-focused segments. You need those to balance out the action sequences, or you fatigue your audience. Even the most...

Well, that answers my question, at least. She went off in the woods and decided to forgive Aria. That's... a lot of stuff, though. To the point of invoking the Long List trope. I'm still laughing. :lol:

On #316, I feel like I missed something. Did Marena just wander off into the woods and have some Epiphany Therapy, or did she confront her mother offpanel?

I like the "go out with a laugh" mentality that Misho applies here. It's fitting, somehow. I don't really see him as the stern, "BEGONE!" type. Anyway, if you don't mind my saying so, Jukashi, this latest arc shows how your storytelling skills have grown over the duration of Keychain. It's...

You know, I was actually sort of expecting the sunrise to banish the summoning before Secret's dad could spit out his news. This way is better, but the foreshadowing had me going for a bit.

Meeting her mother definitely sent Marena on a spin - she hasn't been the same since. Then again, this could be an expression of her Limit Flaw... although if it's Curse of the Mother Hen, that doesn't really work out. The longer any story goes on, the more time you have to show the depths of...

Well, that's one way Marena is different from her mother. When all else fails, she hits things with trees. Or rocks. Misho should point this out; it would go very well, I think.

I found myself slightly disappointed that they are both still apparently more or less clothed in the final panel. My impression of Marena is that she would have been working towards that goal. Although the angle does leave it slightly ambiguous.
