One day when I am old, I aspire to be an elderly halfling living in the backstage of a huge bigger-on-the-inside magic dungeon complex filled with traps and secrets built to prevent anyone from possibly getting into the deeper hidden secrets.

This means Roy would recognize Redcloak if it was him.

There are other magics though.
My guess is that it is Julia, being Dominated by Xykon. He could then force her to talk to Roy.

The dungeon isn't actually bigger on the inside, it just makes clever use of portals to appear bigger on the inside. [/pedantry] ;p

Down at the bottom of the ocean. Beneath tons of brine which would crush you down. Not into broken and splintered flesh, but into thin soup. Into just more of the sea water. Where things live that aren't so different from you, but you will never live to touch them and they will never live to touch you.

Real talk, who even knows about Julia besides Roy? Consuming the comic when it only drip feeds me one or two pages a month really erodes my memory on the continuity.

The Linear Guild kidnapped her. The Order had to rescue her, and the Sapphire Guard (at least Hinjo and his wizard) knows about that because Roy basically tricked them into helping.


This ignores all the ways you can find out about things in a D&D world.

I doubt Team Evil is behind this.  They're mapping the whole place using a overengineered SLAM Quinton, remember?

The devils are likely still able to scry, despite the anti-magic stone.  Unless this is a psy-op, they're not behind this either.

Neither of them have mentioned how their last conversation ended.  Roy wanted to say something about their father.

There's a few lines here that really make me put stronger credence in the "this isn't Julia" theory.

Julia doesn't have the same alignment as Roy.

By her own admission, she's True Neutral.

But it is also something someone True Neutral, Chaotic, or even Neutral Evil would say. would say. So it only proves she is not Neutral Good or Lawful.
