Ceaseless Fables of Beyonding

NOTES

• More information about “plagiarist goggles”, and “Mr. Blindy” (made in China)
• Radish-Hoof took the keychain from someone?

NOTES

• Kerpallis Westerlands is the upper region of sky islands and floating continents
• Royal court was “adjourned” when Radish-Hoof began kicking people in the face
• “Mr. Blindy” is Radish-Hoof’s name for the laser pointer

NOTES

• There are clues to who might be speaking to Cornelius, in panels 3 and 5
• Full, three-dimensional picture of the Beyonding (excepting the Highest/Lowest Points and Forthwall) in panel 4
• In panel 5, man, Nard and Glowborg are visible, plus the twin moons of Yotaton

NOTES

• As you can see, no one is allowed to be more reposed than King Reclinus V (based on a minor villain from John’s Arm: Armageddon)
• Friggo rushes into action with the book detector

NOTES

• Plagiarists make up a negligible percentage of the population of the Beyonding. Still, they are so vilified, their influence and presence are trumped-up, to scare, coerce or control people
• “Plagiarism” is heretical; claiming to know the methods of Plagiarists is as damning as being one

NOTES

• The basics of maniplacation are explained
• Who was controlling Daemir, and for what purpose?
• “Plagiarist” is used; “plagiarism” is not (see next page)

NOTES

• In the Beyonding, if it is witnessed that you freed a unicorn from captivity, then that unicorn will grant you a single wish, if you put your hand on its headstone (and if your intentions are pure)
• First mention of “maniplacate”

NOTES

• In the first two panels, Prosecutor Irata obliquely explains that unicorns can use foul language without negative repercussions, while “lower beings” (subdivines) cannot
• Again, I based Radish-Hoof’s general attitude upon my own
• “I’m so angry I could blind people at random”; hence the laser-pointer keychain, in the stables

NOTES

• Yes, I based Radish-Hoof’s personality on my own (although his voice is angry Jim Norton)

NOTES

• First appearances: Irata, royal prosecutor, and King Reclinus V
• Anyone who assumes a more restful posture than the King is sentenced to death automatically
