Obvious mountain is obvious, right? (you could see it in background of 3rd panel last page)…
If anyone gets the pop-culture movie reference on this page let me know!
.
The costume! It's my entry for the Historical Outfits community project we all did last spring (which I won!! Yay Me…!!). It only took me nine months to reach the part of this story where I knew I'd use it…*whew*. I said then that it'd appear in the story, and sorta make sense (or at least in my own head!).
Thanks for Reading Everyone!

@Szyszka666: Maybe the first time a Lady took being called 'ancient' as a compliment!! ;)
Szyszka666 at 9:08AM, Feb. 29, 2016
She's a true ancient goddess! :)

@plymayer: Thanks! Well if the mountain resembles anything it was my unconscious doing it... That damn Freud!! :D

@jgib99: Thanks! There's probably a path that winds up that mountain - she can just stroll up *chuckle*
plymayer at 10:45PM, Feb. 28, 2016
Love the costume. Wonder what Freud would think about the mountain?

Love the outfit. Ya had to figure that The Godstrain would be waiting on the highest mountain in the area. Gotta make it difficult.

@El Cid: Haha okay... Thanks for looking that up! I guess for a while 'This is Sparta!' was over saturated in pop culture a bit but I do think it's gonna be one of those lines that lives on, like "Here's looking at you kid... Luke, I am your Father... I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse..."

@Tupapayon: If I said the Lord of the Rings wasn't an influence here I'd be a lyin'!!

"One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its Black Gates are guarded by more than just Orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume. Not with ten thousand men could you do this. It is folly."

@Kim: It wasn't a really bad razzing, but I tracked the page down. It was weird going back and looking at my old comic again! http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/Death_P0rn/5342195/

@Peipei: While it is a volcanic column, it's not exactly spewing lava out this very moment (that's supposed to be a rough beam of golden light at the top, but I can see the confusion in hindsight). Anyway... Kimber Lee doesn't really have plan - just playin' it as it goes!! Thanks about the outfit!!
Peipei at 4:56AM, Feb. 28, 2016
That is one godly volcano if I've ever seen one. Is she planning on scaling that thing or does she have a safer plan in mind? As always, I love her outfit in this segment of the comic :D!

@El Cid: You got razzed for it?!! lol if you remember when and where I'd like to read the comment...! Anyway, it's such a modern iconic line I don't care if I get razzed! Of course, it's Kimber Lee herself that's thinking the line, so maybe I'll get a little bit of a pass! But... I have other movie refernces coming up - maybe I'll get a psss on those too!!;)

@Banes: Thank You! Of course we'll revisit some valleys again, just different valleys! Lotta story left!!
El Cid at 5:46PM, Feb. 27, 2016
Yeah, a volcano, no possible symbolism going on there! Was she channeling King Leonidas from '300' in that fourth panel?! I got razzed for using a dated '300' reference in one of my comics... and that was a few years ago!
Banes at 4:21PM, Feb. 27, 2016
Those valley pages were great; so powerful. The expression of despair on Kimber's face keeps popping up in my mind. But this is definitely a welcome change of tone. Amazing page!

@Sway: Thanks! Some stories handle the world juggling so well... The movie Inception is my classic go-to example. The movie Suckerpunch had so much potential, but sorta fumbled the ball... Some of those dream-sequences were incredible though! Sword and Sandals! Kimber Lee's got the sandals - she probably shoulda looked harder for a sword!! ;)
KimLuster at 11:05AM, Feb. 27, 2016
@genejoke: Yeah... staying in the valley constantly is hard on the reader AND the author!!
KimLuster at 11:03AM, Feb. 27, 2016
@Tom: Yep, now comes the really easy part!!
KimLuster at 11:01AM, Feb. 27, 2016
@Paul: Always perceptive you are - I certainly referenced Devil's tower... Also, you guessed correctly (last page) that Kimber Lee's garb would be the outfit from last spring's historical outfit contest!!
