Whoo yeah I did it! =D *dances* Now I can't wait for the next part. XD

I don't remember how often comic chapters were released before, but for some reason, this comic seems to be moving along pretty fast (maybe because each chapter is only a couple of pages?). I like it. ^_^ Of course, that's a whole lot for people to catch up on if they get a late start to the plot.

I'm very happy about that. Shows they've planned it out and have it ready to go for three days a week updates. ^^

So... Everyone can read the comics without doing the puzzle, right?

I dunno, it feels weird to be doing a puzzle and then reading about the exact same thing.

[kamikatze24]

Yeah... maybe it's for those people who desperately try to solve the puzzle by themselves, without success, so that they can follow the line, too

Naah, I think at some point the comics will stop and then you'll have to go on by yourself, like in the Altador plot.

It's not the exact same thing, though, is it? I mean, the first page is mostly the same, but then they use the second page to tell you things that aren't part of the puzzle.

I kind of like the idea of seeing how the stuff we do fits in to what actually happens, anyway. ^_^; And, if you don't, it's like having one page per update, rather than two.

Though, if everyone can read the comic, it makes it much easier for people to figure out what to do.

It kinda' is. I mean, in Chapter 1, all those parts are played out in the puzzle. It's just that finding the locket came before the comic updated, and then getting chased out of Sophie's house came after the update. So you're still following the exact same thing.

This hasn't been the first time that a comic reflected our actions, like the ending for the first Meridell war, for example. And in the Hannah plot, Hannah would face off against the Snow Beast, then we'd have the chance to fight it. And in the LD plot, the characters mentioned how a scroll pyramid was being built and that Amira's advisors were going through the scrolls. We played the advisors and were participating in the side story. But doing the exact same events has never been done before, and it feels odd.

Well, what I meant was, we found out more about the motivations of the characters. It wouldn't be as interesting if Sophie just chased us out of her house for no reason. *shrugs* And some things are only mentioned in the comic, like the fact that Sophie took the locket.

Yeah... it is kind of strange. But, I'd rather have the comics than not have it.

Gahahahaha I totally saw that coming.

[Fraze]

I was just contemplating the latest part of the mystery, and a random phrase, unbidden, popped into my head regarding the trapping of Bruno:

That gelert be trippin', yo.

I know, I know...*bricks self*

Well yeah, me too. I'm not complaining about the plot so far or anything, just saying that it feels odd.

[Draco]

I didn't worry about the monster following me at all. Once I placed the items down, I went back to where I left the key laying around, picked that up, and the actions started

[PetFriendAmy]

HA! I finally got 'im! I knew you had to hinder him with every object... besides the key.

I'm excited to see what's next! ^_^

You guys DO know the next part is out, right?

Yes. I got Bruno after the next part came out, and it still gave me a "To be continued..." Maybe I'll check out the shack now, anyway...
