"Both were unsure about these events they had gone through. They did not want to worry the other but they each had a very uneasy feeling about what was happening in their idyllic little homeland."

So if I submitted on Wednesday the 19th and didn't get in, then that's not much of a submitting window. I mean, it's fine, I resumbitted already, just kind of annoying. It makes it hard to stay on top of current events.

Battle Blunders pt3 by Lex and luc187

Heh, perhaps Ralvy is not the only one who has lost to a newbie here! But poor Sura in that last panel, his face is so sad xD Also funny how oblivious Ralvy is to his shock, girl did not think past her day with other guy beyond getting free food lol. Love the lighting and colors as always, and I think it's creative using the dark room with tv lighting setting as an excuse for a minimal palette. Makes things feel atmospheric while also minimizing color for practical reasons! This also has me curious now what kind of video games Sura likes playing >w>

Lisha and the Troubled Tavern by Carolyn

Lisha and her curiosity getting the best of her! But also makes sense that the longer he keeps a secret that involves sneaking around on a consistent basis, the harder it'll be for Jeran to keep lol. I like how you tie in multiple previous stories and bring further closure to them, not just with the Mangled Marrow crew but also Lisha's hesistance to using Kayla's potions. Makes sense that she'd have some wariness after the nightmare series, but I can also see why Kayla would feel hurt by this and want to prove herself. Feels like a number of different open story threads that naturally come together in the end. The references to previous stories didn't feel too intrusive though, and somebody could likely understand this story fine without having read previous works.

(cute reference to Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy as well haha)
