Two pages today!

Poor First Jacaranda - you played a very brief but crucial role in our tale. Perhaps the latest Jacaranda is still out there alive, somewhere, if Lady Ilganyag is to be believed.

And Lady Ilganyag? Well. That's not gonna buff out quick.

Who do you reckon that is up on the cliff? We know who Duane thinks it is, of course.

A merry Christmas to everyone this week! I'll be spending it at my desk getting work done. Might order Chinese on Wednesday if my local place is open, but did most of my family stuff this weekend. Woo, the Frummagem inspirational coffers have been refilled from that! Good luck with your brood :)

I see a few crows hiding close to Duane, meaning the Big Mamma Crow still assuredly has at least a few parts of herself left. Sneaky sneaky.

Alight

Awesome, that's how I think of her too! I even meant to capitalize it but forgot. Ok, glad to see I can still occasionally grok nicknames.

Josh

You must journey into Discord, Josh, and investigate this matter. I call her "First Sette," myself :)

Ashley

Well, we needed a name for this character. Khette, as in Khert-Sette is the one that stuck around. (also I am proud to say that I am the originator of this name lmao)

Flyfly

Why does everyone call the first Sette Khette again? Like, "Khert Sette"?

Josh

I thought she could have the first soul if she killed Sette F?

Capsandnumbers

I would prefer to explain what I mean using images, but there's no attaching images to patreon comments. So I guess here goes... On page 111 we see the first!Sette silhouette, it's a round head on a round body with thin legs and a tail. The body looks like fur texture-wise. On the next page 112 we see that she kinda has a round metal(?) plate on her back that defines most of that round silhouette. There's fur (more hair? I like calling it mane) behind that and on the sides. It feels metal because that "criss-cross" pattern is typical for the metal flooring in industrial setting – the anti-slip ribbing. There's two clamps(?) around her neck, maybe that's how the round metal plate is attached to her. Or rather how she is attached to it – I understood it from the comic that the humans who cut open the right half of first!Sette were doing it while securing her to a metal plate like that. And she's wearing it kinda proudly. She looks like that on page 161 too, for example. The round plate seems to be rigid, not folding around her. So I called it a "shield". Another great silhouette on 168. Page 169 the plate is seen well again. And page 170 was last time we saw the Settes until now.

Mane, one might say

Luuuuuuu

Brutal cliffhanger (or maybe cliffstander?), on top of brutal... everything. I guess our Christmas present is consistency 😅

Acob Acob

I mean, also - remember the last time she saw Duane; that wasn't a happy parting.

Luuuuuuu

Sette or Khette... Discernment complicated. Silhouette is closer to Khette, but also aura seems to imply First Soul, which - unless we've been lied to - she can't have even if she won her fight. It is not impossible for Sette to have lost some hair and clothes during the fight though. Looks wise I lean Khette. Actions also make it inconclusive. Sette has the most understandable reasons to nuke Sessine (duh) and Jac (traitor who led her to die) while avoiding nuking Duane. Khette's reasoning might be to not let Jac warn Duane, and to use Duane as a portal, and I guess maybe she has literally no care for Sessine if she got First Soul anyway somehow. Actions-wise I lean Sette. One last deet is that if this is indeed our Sette, I don't think she'd react to seeing Duane again like this? Though this is a pure vibe thing. I imagine more of a reaction rather than ominously looking and leaving. So I guess I am leaning Khette overall. Weird.

Flyfly

They're probably talking about the black criss-crossy thing First Sette was wearing on her back. Part of her cape?

Matthew Hawley

It's Murkoph :)

Ashley

I can't believe no one has commented on the figure lurking nearby while Duane has his latest crisis. I assumed that was Murkoph but actually it looks too slick for that guy. ....?

czytanie

Hmm

Duke BG

Hmm, round shield?

Ashley

Yeah, she took out some of the scenery when she did that.

Ashley

The white coated guys look like dead and dying squishes... :( with a few bites taken out

Luuuuuuu

Soooo...how much bad juju energy is generated when you murder another version of yourself? Guess we're about to find out!

Ladile

Okay, wow. It looks a bit like that ripped a hole into of the Khert floor. Not sure though. Poor Jac and poor squishes. :`(

Reed Copperstrand

Also, I refused to believe that Khette won.

Mek

Illanyang can't be dead from just this that seems really anticlimatic. Also what are the new white coated guys supposed to represent?

Mek

Awww, Ashley! You got us fratricide! Merry Xmas to you too!

Gally

Sad that the minute Jac actually tries to step in and help, he gets absolutely nuked from existence. Maybe he was wiser to be a scaredy cat.

L Anon

The silhouette lacks the round "shield" of the first Sette and the long hair of our Sette. So either it's a third Sette or some amalgamation has occurred.

Duke BG

Damn. Okay. You're right, there was no way I could have guessed the turn these pages took. Well then. Well. Hmmm. Get egg rolls! :D

CD

You know, I’m not sure “alive” and “dead” have the same meaning to us as to Lady Ilganyag. Magic of that magnitude and complexity makes weird shit happen.

StLOrca (pronounced Ess Tee Ell Orca)

Oh, my—is that…hope…on Duane’s face!?

StLOrca (pronounced Ess Tee Ell Orca)

Majestic.

Luuuuuuu

First Jacaranda is dead for the purposes of this story. We won't ever see him again. I mean, not meaningfully. He's out of our tale. But we know that these twins keep being born, so we could find another iteration of the kitty in the future, somewhere. Lady Ilganyag is tricky. Any senet that still exists these days must be ludicrously difficult to kill.

Ashley

Oh, and happy holidays Ashley!

Rainwalker

oh we are on some Frieza shit now! merry Christmas, may your egg rolls be crispy <3

grim

You know I was *just* about to go to bed when I read these and now I’m wide awake. In a way I hope lady I is dead, because if she’s not, well, that’ll be a horrid existence for a very, very long time. And poor Jac. But Sette! What became of Sette!!

Rainwalker

Oh, I'm sure Sette will be there for that. ...which Sette though do you mean?

Luuuuuuu

Happy Holidays, jaaama! :D

Ashley

Merry Christmas, Gracie! :D

Ashley

It's his curse to be hated by his twin. So it goes.

Ashley

Poor Jacaranda; first he made himself a traitor to one Sette by not talking when he should have and then a traitor to another Sette by talking when he should have. Same result no matter whether it's one Sette up there, the other up there, or some combination thereof.

Michael Stakely

AAAAHH WHAAT NOO! JAC NOO!! WHAT DID KHETTE-- DID SHE DO IT?? where's our Sette? Hurry THE FUCK UP Duane!!!! Is Jac gone for good?? Did Khette kill her brother?? *Rips off own hair, wails in the corner* ......anyway, happy holidays to all!

jaaama

Well then.....Merry Christmas!

GracieV

I'm positive Sette's making it out of this since Nary's going to Alderode and all, that would be an odd turn if Sette weren't there for that, but man, I have no idea how!

Rebecca L

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Plucky Pariah

Don't worry, I'm sure First Sette who just nuked her mom and bro without hesitation was very gentle with Frummagem Sette

Luuuuuuu

I see no paws and no claws on that hand. Also I did not like seeing those squishes all white and going belly up

Renee

Yeah that ☝️

PantheraTigeris

Damn I was thinking we were taking an awful long time for Duane to beat Lady I considering Sette was already being garrotted last time we saw her. This ain't looking good. And the poor squishes!

Rifter

Not even a Sette can destroy ghosts, so Jac could reform at some point. Of course he might not want to. It's hard to get squishes and eels to come together again, and even Jac has his share of eels. With enough time, many things are possible in the khert though, so who can definitively say~

Ashley

I swear to Ssael, our Sette better be safe and sound up there.

Plucky Pariah

Bird and cat asplode

Ashley

WHAT

The Clag

W-will... Will Jacaranda reform...? Like to like...? Or is he split up forever now? Also uh oh! Uh oh Duane! That's Khette up there! She may have Sette's body- the First Soul... But if Sette is like Khette now... does that mean she could take it back???? HMmmmmm
