Well at least he'll be getting character development.

*reads 913*

I guess you could say that.

(update)

He

That was awesome.

OotS 913: Going once again to show that Tarquin knows all of your tropes, and cares not a whit for them if they don't suit his needs.

[Oliolli]

Now, what about Sabine?

Now, what about Sabine?

She'll be called in to process him I guess, then she'll sneak him out of the afterlife.

I'm still not sure it's not an hoax to convince Elan to accept his dad's help. For all we know as soon as the order is gone geared up in magical spying kit, Tarquin will reanimate his son.

But why? Nale's shown nothing to suggest he'll further his plans.

[hops]

I'm pretty sure it's partly Tarquin being evil, and partly because he is pissed off about Malack getting killed.

[DJ]

I still didn't see that coming.

[andrea]

and yet, Nale should have seen it coming. His father was the only thing keeping him alive. Gloating about killing malack in front of Tarquin and another party memeber? that was borderline suicide already. Doing so and refusing his father's protection? that is just begging to die. I guess Tarquin preferred to kill his son himself, rather than allowing Laurin to do so.

I wonder what is going through his mind in the last panel.
He just killed his son, and from this strip it seems obvious that he did care a fair bit about him, more than malack and perhaps more than his continent dominating plan ( he is willing to defend him to his party memebers, which is likely to cause quite a bit of strain in the team).
I don't think he is as cold and detached as he seems to be, at least in this strip.

edit: my bet is 1/3 anger, 1/3 sadness and 1/3 empty.

[Loud Whispers]

Well apparently "son I am disappoint" is synonymous with "son I will kill you."

[Xantalos]

Well apparently "son I am killappoint" is synonymous with "son I will kill you."

Fixed.

[Oliolli]

I'm also not sure about Elan's response here. Sure, he is the good twin, but how can he still be so absolutely horrified by Nale dying?

[andrea]

he just saw his father killing his brother. Even if Nale was a monster, that can be a big shock. Even more considering he probably didn't hear the conversation. ( not that it would change much)

[DJ]

He's Elan. He probably expects that defeating Xykon won't involve killing him.
