Wow! I did not see his betrayal coming so quickly.
cold cold cold. she was innocent of her father’s doings, after all.
Wow, just wow. Talk about a heartless fellow.
…wow. No WONDER the Gates were barred to him!
1. I didn’t think he actually loved her, I thought it was a charade.
2. As the others said above me^, how cruel. Well, I guess I shouldn’t have expected anything different from the guy who took the sun away
The worst is that he isn´t even actully “evil” here. He seems to be loyal while doing so, because he is devoted and sure to have the right on his side.
He spoke of the crusades as a conquest of heros and of the golden horde as gruesome conquerors. He sure is blinded by that, and his intelligence is not stopping that, only worsn it
“Every man’s way is right in his own eyes” – so naturally he isn’t going to view himself as evil. He justified himself from the beginning with the same twisted logic. What I’m wondering is how that logic will be twisted still further later on in the narrative, because something tells me his past victory over Abu will eventually make his current doings possible. (Hm. Kalantis vs. Abu? Is that what we’re looking at down the road? And what will our heroic mouse do?)
I think that someone responsible for the killing of 40 million people could qualify as a gruesome conqueror, he and his hordes (see the Website link) – it’s the fae’s blind loyalty to a cause, whether the God he serves would approve of it or not, which is his weak spot.
By the way: compared to the previous volumes, isn’t this one going into extra innings? I’ll have to count the pages, but this one seems truly epic by comparison. Loving it, but wondering when the last page of the volume will come.
It is running a bit long, it was originally 48pgs. The Kalvatius section was originally in prose but I had grumblings about too many words and such so I had the section turned to comic pages and the new stretched to 20pgs and there were some other minor corrections done to make the story flow better as well. I think this last volume comes in about 64pgs.
