A sorceress can add certain effects to their words. So the frost on Searsha's speech balloons reflects an actual drop in temperature around her. I hope it comes through in the dialogue that she is cutting Larya off and even talking over her. She may be the protagonist but she's not Ms. Congeniality. And besides we're only 40 pages in and each character is only getting their second scene and we're still on first impressions here. In the original version Larya didn't say anything. As her character developed later on that initial reaction rang false. So it was changed to her trying, getting rebuked and then biding her time. As for Aleeka? There may be something more to her simply jumping into Halfdan's bed. In the first draft that hadn't been fleshed out before the start of the comic. Now it has been so the actions of the characters need to be adjusted in light of future developments.
So frosty. Halfdan deserves half the blame too though. Whoa maybe that's how he got his name. Hopefully Aleeka's skills will come in handy again, might help change people's opinions.
I didn't pick up that there was sorcery going on, but I just picked up that there was something really icy in Searsha's tone, which I guess is safe to say there was some of that going on as well!

Especially like Aleekas expression in the final panel! So sour!

What if Halfdan is excused because he's just a man being a man and it is expected that a woman should know better?

seems Searsha has a bit of an attitude problem eh?

Bad childhood. But her heart is in the right place.
