Added 2025-01-01 04:49:50 +0000 UTCTwo pages today. Not ominous at all that this timed out this way, I'm sure 2025 will be just fine because we are enlightened and very sophisticated people not at all swayed by superstition.
Please don't be mad at me.
Comments
that top right panel of sette on page 2 is so well done. great moment of pathos. didn't damage me at all, obviously.

2025-01-02 12:38:06 +0000 UTChmmmmm. we shall see.
Dr. Badvibes
2025-01-02 12:32:32 +0000 UTCYou're absolutely right! And this IS the khert. So that's encouragement to keep the faith and trust where the story takes us, yeah? :)
Ashley
2025-01-02 01:48:28 +0000 UTCBut but but she's the main character!
czytanie
2025-01-02 01:47:03 +0000 UTCSette goes bodily inside the khert, we've seen it a few times. This time, her body got itself strangled.
Ashley
2025-01-02 01:32:59 +0000 UTCI'm confused by this. Or maybe I'm in denial. How can someone kill someone in the khert? Isn't it all just souls & memories?
czytanie
2025-01-02 01:25:55 +0000 UTCAw. I was so hoping she could have pulled out a dirty-fighting trick from growing up as a Sharteshanian but no sand to throw or clever palmed daggers in a place where the ground is people. Happy new year - out with the old, in with the new? Y_Y

2025-01-01 17:50:45 +0000 UTCCreg List is a cromulent Crescian name, if a bit shady. If you buy from him make sure you make the transaction in a public place.
Velasco
2025-01-01 17:47:42 +0000 UTCSette would go nuts if she was intangible. She couldn't steal pocketwatches or eat pie or pick locks! There are some fates worse than death v_v
Ashley
2025-01-01 17:40:10 +0000 UTCAww, it's been a very long story. You have to have at least SOME trust in me by now :)
Ashley
2025-01-01 17:39:08 +0000 UTCYeah, Duane, check the local Classified section. Pull up Khert's List.
Ashley
2025-01-01 17:38:23 +0000 UTCShe tried, and I debated making her throat and jaw all cut up where she'd tried to free herself, but it distracted from the pathos, so I refrained. Her nemesis knew what she was doing though, it only takes a few seconds to cut the blood flow off to the brain to knock a person out.
Ashley
2025-01-01 17:36:46 +0000 UTCI refuse to believe it!
Stretch Andrews
2025-01-01 17:23:04 +0000 UTCMaybe, but... where is it? Also... First Sette can kill ghosts... look how she just blew up her mom and brother...
Luuuuuuu
2025-01-01 16:54:36 +0000 UTCAnyone remember BizzAnon's comment on https://www.patreon.com/posts/17-143-144-84989838 ? I think about it a lot.
Andelie
2025-01-01 16:13:53 +0000 UTCAlso Feels correct, in a way. Hard to describe- you talk about death as a change he needs to deal with re Duane. What New he needs to become. Sette is also something new, as Khette said- what kind of changes will come from Sette now fulfilling this ‘role’ ten years late? She was never meant to live this long…. So…. What has she become….? Excited for what’s next!!!!
Madison
2025-01-01 15:41:52 +0000 UTC>wake up in the new year >remember there's an Unsounded update >open site >see this >roll over and go back to bed (I gave 2025 enough of a chance, wake me in 2026.)
Lulululu
2025-01-01 13:41:28 +0000 UTCYou know, for as much as Duane bemoans his parenting style, Nary Frummagem kept this kid alive in a world of criminals for DECADES and Duane couldn't even manage, what, six months? Weak.
Eggo
2025-01-01 13:29:30 +0000 UTCI was under the impression you had said this was coming. You don't pull your punches though, do you.
Spen Cyrrh
2025-01-01 12:59:52 +0000 UTCHer ghost is certainly intact, the way all the other Settes' ghosts are intact. It's just, how's she going to come home now?

2025-01-01 11:19:16 +0000 UTCGod this is sad :(
J
2025-01-01 10:56:45 +0000 UTCShe literally could have clawed herself out though. What's the point of having lion claws if you aren't going to use them to rip cloth out.
Mek
2025-01-01 10:46:12 +0000 UTCOh, I'm a little mad :( I hope something of her lives on.
Runeloon
2025-01-01 10:33:29 +0000 UTCWhen (quite some time ago) you wrote that not all characters will survive the end of this book, this was definitely not what I was expecting. I was actually thinking Duane won't.
Duke BG
2025-01-01 10:26:56 +0000 UTCGoodnight, sweet princess.
Flyfly
2025-01-01 10:22:16 +0000 UTCReally interested to see how the story is going to continue from here. That last panel is so sad, but so beautiful. I love the torn(?) khert, and the blueness. It's so calm and tragic. (obligatory joke through the tears in my eyes) w-well.. look if the spare one is still around, Duane...,,she lost a brother tragically just recently..
jaaama
2025-01-01 09:40:30 +0000 UTCHappy new year and big oofies. This one's going to take time to cope with.

Spider
2025-01-01 08:29:28 +0000 UTCLets see how long can I stay in denial phase.
Srećko
2025-01-01 08:14:53 +0000 UTCA lot depends on how this key moment is handled from here on out as to whether I can stick with it. I am trusting that you will achieve something amazing. Just don’t take too long.
TEB
2025-01-01 07:28:13 +0000 UTCTragic but not a shock. Beautifully done, miss Cope. Now, how much first light would it take to get her the Timofey treatment?
Rogbull
2025-01-01 07:13:27 +0000 UTCI had feeling this was coming, beautifully portrayed as always! I’m coping hard and believing somehow this won’t be the end of our Sette!! Let’s get that soul back Duane
Moss on Trees
2025-01-01 06:49:12 +0000 UTCOh...oh...this hurts. Sette's face is piercing my heart. The constrast with her living face...the expressions are incredible. I was afraid this was coming but I'm speechless.
Kay
2025-01-01 06:45:16 +0000 UTCOH no! ash! looks like sette got the Disney Pinocchio death! dam this is a hard page though, keep up the amazing story
redink
2025-01-01 06:40:32 +0000 UTCHappy New Year! On one level, I saw this coming. It doesn't take long to strangle someone, Sette was weakened by taking down Final Forme Ilganyag, and Duane was taking too long. But on the other hand, it's still... well, how can it be anything but a shock? It's not a *surprise*, but it is still emotionally stupefying. Hard to imagine the story going on without Sette Frummagem.

2025-01-01 06:33:10 +0000 UTCDamn that got me...

2025-01-01 06:08:10 +0000 UTCOh... marmalade.
Jeremy Ball
2025-01-01 05:47:59 +0000 UTCDamn. He lost another one :/ [visibly holding back tears] Happy (?) New Year! Hopefully 2025 isn't already dead in the water like our beloved Sette.
Cassie
2025-01-01 05:47:52 +0000 UTCJust in time as always, Duane, ever the hero.
Luuuuuuu
2025-01-01 05:47:12 +0000 UTCI still believe Sette will turn out all right (not just a ghost in the khert) somehow! Damn, this is heartbreaking (in the meantime?), though....
Rebecca L
2025-01-01 05:36:29 +0000 UTCnever mad but also hfjdkalajakjl 😭😭 not sette.
Natalie
2025-01-01 05:31:26 +0000 UTCAlright, I'll trust ya!
Rifter
2025-01-01 05:23:38 +0000 UTCThe comic will always be here for you, Ava, and I truly do appreciate you being so kind to stick around <3 I'll see you in the coming year!
Ashley
2025-01-01 05:19:41 +0000 UTC*You have alerted the horde* Got any boomer bile? - Thanks for the year Ashley. It's been lovely. I'll let everyone else pontificate, but I'll talk of my personal experience. I genuinely didn't expect to get, to live this far. As you know. It's been really quite the nice experience to survive alongside the comic's release. It's felt like the slow plodding of good, of painful and mundane times, getting through time in hospital and under the knife has been bookmarked by your steady and ever present release schedule and it's become a ritual for me :) Here's to another year, and I hope, I oh so hope I'm here to repeat this next time, and that you are too 🫡😊
Ava
2025-01-01 05:18:16 +0000 UTChappy fucking new year, unsounded readership 💙
Nikaleles
2025-01-01 05:18:00 +0000 UTC...........but also AAAUUUUUUGGGHHHHHHGGHFHFTHHHH
CD
2025-01-01 05:17:50 +0000 UTCYep. A lot of pages passed between us seeing her being strangled, and Duane finally hauling his bones up there.
Ashley
2025-01-01 05:17:45 +0000 UTCFirst of all, how dare you T.T
Rainwalker
2025-01-01 05:17:35 +0000 UTCKeep the faith <3
Ashley
2025-01-01 05:16:57 +0000 UTCIt's the tiniest callback to chapter 9, when she and Duane talked on the rooftop and Sette was indeed trying to pick that heart-shaped lock. Here, the lock's finally open.
Ashley
2025-01-01 05:15:38 +0000 UTCNaw, never mad. Just another classic Unsounded moment coming for my life with, like, daggers and 15 batteries stuffed in an old stocking. You and your perfect, pointed flashbacks! TAT The victories only sing so sweetly because this stuff happens too. Anyway. The Incoming Adventure of Ghost Man and Ghost Girl, or "you don't know what you got til it's gone" played on eternal repeat? 🤔 Excited to find out!
CD
2025-01-01 05:15:14 +0000 UTCIt's true.
Ashley
2025-01-01 05:14:51 +0000 UTCWell Duane you basically said you were almost disappointed Mikala didn't die so now we got you a new little dead girl for the holidays. Enjoy!!!
Gally
2025-01-01 05:14:08 +0000 UTCThe only thing strong enough to kill Sette was another Sette. Truly no other force marshaled against her could hold
Jag143
2025-01-01 05:12:27 +0000 UTCThe detail of her picking and unlocking a heart shaped lock there… Wow, i don’t cry about -anything- but these pages got me. So tragic.
Erin Matthias
2025-01-01 05:11:42 +0000 UTCI vaguely recall on the Q&A blog it being said the conclusion of this story would probably be bittersweet but hopefully satisfying just the same. I'm ever eager to see where the story goes, even now.
Ladile
2025-01-01 05:09:10 +0000 UTCalso the only way to justify being mad is if it were a poorly written surprise, and this was not any kind of surprise :(
codeGnave
2025-01-01 05:06:29 +0000 UTCI keep trying to think of ways that Sette may not actually be dead, but she sure does look pretty dead Q~Q I guess her ghost will still be around? But is she never to leave the Khert again? We’ve been following Sette for so long, I dont know what to do with her dead!
Rainwalker
2025-01-01 05:05:14 +0000 UTCshe would be now be stuck in the khert like the other settes yea? though if the soul is what let her command ghosts this does not bode well for our pal duane

2025-01-01 05:04:20 +0000 UTCI'm mad. Not at you Ashley. Just at the inevitable turn of events. Fuck... What a way to end the year. But Ashley. Why
Rifter
2025-01-01 05:03:10 +0000 UTCWHAT THE SAD NOOOOOOO
metrocube
2025-01-01 05:01:58 +0000 UTCThat's real sad Glass! I wonder if First Sette is lurking nearby to get that body. Happy new year!
Capsandnumbers
2025-01-01 04:58:32 +0000 UTCWell… excited to meet our girl as a ghost….! Oohh I had a Feeling this was comin
Madison
2025-01-01 04:58:12 +0000 UTCH-happy new year.... ಥ_ಥ
grim
2025-01-01 04:56:58 +0000 UTCIt's never alright to die. That said, maybe she'll finally find her best world.

2025-01-01 04:54:06 +0000 UTCBeautiful devastation. On the page and in my heart.
