Issue 997

Located in a prime position in the main marketplace, the Fonnet Family Shopfront was known throughout the city of Shenkuu for the rare wares which it stocked that originated far beyond the borders of the sprawling empire. With living quarters above the store and a small courtyard behind, it was to the boxed-in sandy surface that Derlyn retreated to after her latest faux pas.

The Floating Islanders - Rubbish by Themeguy

Lol well perhaps it's what Meridell deserves, considering everything. At least Darigan Citadel is nice enough to dump all their garbage in one spot on the countryside versus anywhere and everywhere!

The expression are great as always, and I especially love the Kacheek farmer's smug faces. He really gives the vibe of somebody so desensitized to nonsense like this that he gets all his kicks from freaking out others with it. And oh nooo, poor Zathandria in the middle of it all xD Love all the cameos! SK makes me laugh because he's probably the most sensible of Keng's characters, and yet even he's having a nice time dumping garbage over the side of the Citadel lol.

NeoQuest Adventures by Lex and luc187

Love the little travel sequence at the beginning, makes great use of space to convey Ralvy and Sura's flight over there in a quick manner! Also has me wondering what Ralvy did exactly to convince Sura to come lol; I wonder if that bandage on his snout has anything to do with it Ralvy doing more chomps?

Sura's disgusted little stance and face when he sees the barn is great, and I love how polite and calm Ralvy is in contrast haha. Playing a new board game in a barn with friends at night like that honestly sounds like a whole vibe, I'd love to be able to do something like this, especially with how beautiful you made the night and game pieces look!

Aw, a little Werebuzz! That's great how they make the classic werewolf noises, but also with added z's in haha xD I love the reveal that they're actually tiny like an actual insect, and the tension you were able to build right before that where it looks like Griff is in serious danger from their bite. I wonder if such a tiny bite will still have any effect on him lol.

The timing of the final two panels is also great, with just taking in what actually happened before quickly and easily containing the problem. But will the Buzz turn into a potential friend =0

He was being a hard sell, so (mean) biting had to be employed. There was simply no other way u-u

But general thank you! I too would love to board game and vibe with friends on a brisk autumn (winter now I guess!) night.
