Soon protects his gate with the honor of his paladins, Girard with his illusions, and so on. Each member retires to the site of one of the gates and protects that gate in their own way. To the end of the group generally known (but in-strip only by a strip title) as the Order of the Scribble, when the gates were freshly sealed and all that was left was to decide how to protect them.Įach of the five surviving members of the group has their own ideas for how to protect the gates, and the disagreement becomes so acrimonious that it’s a couple seconds away from bloodshed when Serini proposes a compromise.

To the beginning of the OOTS-verse? Hardly. So let’s go back, back in time, before any of the events covered in the strip itself, before even the events (well, most of them again, I don’t actually have either of them) in the prequel books. I may lay off on the webcomic posts for the rest of the month and return only for OOTS towards the end. (About two strips a week by my calculations.) And I get completely distracted with research for the activities going on in Sandsday now, so I only get around to actually writing it when I’m more than a week behind schedule.

So I finally got around to coming up with an idea for an OOTS post that didn’t require me to constantly put out updates on the current state of the strip, especially important with how slow the strip has updated over the past month-plus.
