City of Intrigue pg 46
Lord Rend on Dec. 8, 2009
Once more I update on time, so I am fairly certain I am back into a comfortable groove for timing and everything. The only possible problem I can foresee would be as Christmas draws closer, but I think I have a good buffer to carry through.
I like this page in terms of look, although not so much in terms of what is being said, a common feeling with the early part of this phase. The fact is that basically this is basically the end of Lockre from his standpoint and it is really hard to write it without making it sound angst-ridden. It really is not, Lockre just realizes that he is unlikely to have any real friends due to both his nature and the choices he made. Unless you are a hermit, it is kind of difficult to live like that, it tends to drain you of motivation. Since he really cannot afford to lose focus like that, this is his solution.

It is a good theory, and closer than you might think given the fact that the green one is called Primal. The exact nature of the relation will be explained in time though, but your first theory is, as I said, close. Thank you for the compliments, I am glad that the dialogue turned out well, I guess I am just being overly critical of my work. I am glad it sounds more trusting than tearful, that is how I wanted it to turn out. Finally, I apologize for the break in updates, Linked Fate should return to its regular schedule Wednesday of next week.

*snaps fingers* Darn. Original-Lockre doesn't normally growl at people, and people don't usually call him "Primal".

I don't know what you're talking about; the dialogue is the best part of this page! Lockre's goodbye-for-now came off as trusting rather than tearful ('cept for Gloom's additions, but he's always- well, you know.) Also, I don't have to wonder anymore about why he gave up his own body. I say well done and mission accomplished! :) Here's looking forward to another year of Linked Fate! P.S. Whoawhoawhoa, is original-Lockre's color /green/ in the last panel? Does that mean he was the sleeping green orb from the beginning?! If so, consider my mind blown.
