Tag: Inway Saga

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

NOTES

• Friggo reappears, with book detector, in panel four
• Yla takes a shot in the arm, which hurts more than she lets on

NOTES

• The guard in panel one is inspired by the “angery” emoticon, from the mid-2000s
• The floor of the bowelyard is based on the floor of the temple from the beginning of Raiders of the Lost Ark
• What could have erased Daemir’s memories?

NOTES

• First appearance of Friggo, Insanus’ “loyal courier”
• Insanus has a borderline-abusive relationship with his creations, which, as you’ll see, is secretly shameful to him
• Reaching sky islands isn’t easy, especially if your wings are small
• What does it mean if you set a unicorn free?

NOTES

• Insanus’ island is visible in panel one
• This is how the Question Squad interrogates suspects; they push you onto the ledge of a high tower, and bombard you with inquiries, relevant or not
• Highest-ranking members of the Question Squad (known as Questioneers) speak only in questions

NOTES

• First appearance of Speculus, a medical clockwork; “Lie still, for Nards’ sake”
• Yla attempts to reason with the wounded Overkeeper, who speaks the name Abysma
• Cornelius has been taken by the Question Squad, according to Pilfer & Pinch

NOTES

• Corny is formulating a plan that he won’t put into action until much, much later
• Is that “food”?
• “Some hero you’ve turned out to be…”
