NOTES

• First appearance of Castle Creepwood, panel 5
• First appearance of Bougorot, castle doorman, panel 2/7
• First appearance of Duchess Demandice, astride the unicorn Pepperdingus, panel 10

NOTES

• Bromance knows Zaz’s full name is Zazmene, and pronounces it correctly (ZAZ-men-ee); how would he know this?
• If Refusaleth found Cornelius, he could learn the way to the ordinary world

NOTES

• Cornelius begins feeling resentment towards Bromance
• Jellyback explains that the Glowborg genocide was perpetrated by Refusaleth, not Nefaria, who instead took the credit after Refusaleth’s disappearance, and gained the resultant power and infamy
• There are no records of Refusaleth’s existence because the Glowborgs destroyed them, for better or worse

NOTES

• What’s coming out of the Walloper pilot’s mouth?
• The Walloper pilot is an ordinary human, as noted by Jellyback
• The Glowborgs have taken refuge in the Sidelands: Ystyr (pronounced Easter) and Ulu

NOTES

• Faddlegas mentions “creeping towers”, which, according to legend, were incomprehensibly tall, yet mobile
• Traditionally, Nards either guarded the upper territories (Kerpallis Wester and above), or wrote and protected portal books, which allow passage from the Beyonding to the ordinary world (or vice versa)
• Jellyback and the Glowborgs appear in the final panel

NOTES

• Insanus gets Friggo’s name wrong, again
• Insanus recognizes Curdelbludd, despite his new body, and traces his location
• Insanus notes that Cornelius looks different, alluding to his change in wardrobe
• Nards existed in ancient (Perceptive) times; Nard sightings are incredibly rare

NOTES

• Refusaleth and company set up shop in a Literalist ruin
• The Literalists were finally exterminated roughly 300 years ago (Perceptive Times)
• Refusaleth’s power has increased since the discovery of the Nefarian monstrance
• As always, insanus snaps at his subordinate Kudo

NOTES

• Radish-Hoof continues to look worse under the effects of the tormentnid; his eyes are jaundiced
• Kerpallis Wester (or Westerlands) is the formal name of the floating sky islands (Radish-Hoof most likely could not fly that high)
• Rev. Candlewary is the last of his kind
