I see jewelery, my vote is sentient being.
Also, since there's been no evidence to suggest that Lorenda owns her own vehicle, there would have to be a driver somewhere if the gryphon was livestock.
Unless, of course, that pendant is actually a control pendant that uses magic (or a sufficiently advanced science) to control the gryphon and make him/her perform in the desired manner.
*runs off to find the comic dealing with the types of gryphons*
I dont know why shes having a problem, if my daughter sprouted wings an entirely diffrent set of thoughts would go through my head.

Love the griffin pulling the rickshaw
Seeing Lorenda scoot away in the cart makes me think of the Disney movies where the princess heads off to the ball...

I think they might be running the service, as many shaw runners in our city own their cart and make quite a bundle from tourists. plus the griffin looked quite happy

I guess it's just that my country had a rather nasty bit of relatively recent history using people as forced labor. It's hard for me to see sentient creatures as beasts of burden. But when the beasts of burden are also sentient...ooh, I think I need a lie down.

So Kria is left to freak out by herself out of sight, and then relax at Rita's house of pointy's store, shopping .
Then she just might get her things out from storage, and go on a short term rampage, maybe ?

Redundancy HO!
In this case, it would be like saying you have a hard time seeing taxi drivers being exploited because they drive people from one place to another. While there is a physical difference in that the gryphon actually is doing the labor of the movement, for most Gryphon B types it isn't an issue. You can be assured that the gryphons are getting paid for their services, and that the gryphons who are doing the shaws are proud of their jobs. (Odds are the cart was passed down from generations)
No, in this case if you want to get a Griff talking about being exploited, you just mention the modern vehicles and planes that have been starting to crop up due to technology and nudging in on their jobs...
In other words, they're rickshaws drivers in their own right. From what media and entertainment has led people to believe, it's origins and popularity as a mode of transport would be in East Asia.

Don't make me get into a multipage discussion of the imperfect copulative nature of the English verb of being. (I'll do it! I once started a flame war about the subjunctive mood!) Suffice it to say that when all beasts of burden are sentient, it doesn't mean that all sentient beings are beasts of burden.

Well, for me, it's the fact that I have two perfectly good legs. Why can't I use those? Do I need someone to chew my food for me, too?
(Sorry, I guess this is just a personal pet peeve; it doesn't seem to bother anyone else. It may be a side affect of joining the Libertarian Party.)
Anyways, that's not what I came back for. I came back because I noticed that we didn't see Lorenda talking to Bernadette. Yet Lorenda got a devilish idea from hearing Bernadette talking about how her date cheated on her.
That couldn't mean that Lorenda is planning to make it look like she's...

Actually there are quite a few beasts of burden that aren't sentient. Its just the gryphons have a pretty good handle on the transportation industry. :3
QuoteWell, for me, it's the fact that I have two perfectly good legs. Why can't I use those? Do I need someone to chew my food for me, too?
You could note Kria chose to travel home herself, so you might not be too alone in your assessment. However, Gryphons have flight routes, go a lot faster, have no worry of giant gryphon attacks, and a few have teleporting skills. There are a lot of reasonable reasons someone might prefer hiring transport. The real question would be where is Lorenda at if she is needing a gryphon-shaw to get home since before most DMFA characters have always walked to their locations.
You mean there that Lorenda's going to make a demonic plan, not a devilish plan . Remember, Lorenda is a Demon - Cow . ( note to superluser )
That, and gryphons are also used for transport in Furrae, the game DMFA is based off.
And how can you cheat on someone you're not even dating? All that will do is get you kicked out faster, hurt someone's feelings perhaps all the more, and simply being someone you don't want to be...your mom.
ah yes... good old fashioned option number three. Nothing happens.

Ah, as Miss Amber clears-up quite nicely.
And while I haven't played WoW, I think I've seen gryphons as a form of transport in that game as well.

So they're flying/teleporting rickshaws? Nevermind then. I might use one myself.
Also, I might be wrong, but Jyrras seemed to be within walking distance of Lost Lake. I think he's been there three days in a row. So that means that this mall is far off. Makes sense. It doesn't look like the mall from the middle of Chapter 19 and you don't put two major malls within walking distance of each other.

Well, she could properly cheat on him if she took him out. Or just bring someone over and start locking lips (make that someone Dan or Abel for maximum trauma). ``Oh, er. I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner.'' It's a bit of an easier let-down if you know that it was never possible in the first place.
Of course, that wouldn't take after Lorenda's mom; that would take after her dad. I suppose that would be a bad thing.

You are correct, sir.
Of course, WoW gryphons are not in the same league as DMFA/Furrae gryphons.
Gryphons have been used as mounts, sentient or not, in many fantasy genre, along with hypogryphs, dragons, wyverns, giant water ticks, and so on. In some fantasy settings, the sentient ones will work as beasts of burden in the same way that people will be hired to perform menial tasks such as loading and unloading ships, or they will even own and operate thier own transport services(notably, in the Spellsinger series by Alan Dean Foster, equines and bovines are not bipedal, but are sentient).
Ever read the "Iron Dragons Daughter"?
Way to much sex in it for my tastes but every vehical or means of transport is sentiant. Horses and dragons are built on assembly lines as sentent mechanical ceatures. Hell at one point they described an arial chase between dragons (which are alot like jet fighters with internal cockpits and the like) one dragon's radar could sens the other loading a missle it could even sense the missles excitment over being fired.
So in that one not only are the beasts of burden sentiant but some of the projectiles are too
If you want to get home in safety, take a hand drawn Gryphon , in case of a Gryphon alert !
I didn't see Freakazoid in this! Lies!
Okay, more seriously... I'm betting she's freaking out over the wings, but the spying thing wasn't something I'd even thought of and makes perfect sense.
Kria was sent in by the Creature Council, for the purpose of keeping Jyrass under observation . If Kria is able to defuse the situation temporarily for Lorenda, nothing really stops Kria from keeping Jyrass under observation . To the amount and intensity of observation, we have yet to see ...
I am going to wildly speculate that wing length is related to how long you will live and Kreia is freaking out because Lorenda has only 25 minutes left.
In any case Kria freaking out hoping the realationship between her daughter and Jy-Jy is intact. More spying on Jy-Jy hmmmmmm what she will do to keep that relationship going not knowing her daughter has devious plans of her own.
Speculations galore. >:3

Thinking about it more... there's a few other possibilities as well.
One is she's freaking out the wings, but not because they're small, but for a different reason - they raise the question of why she -doesn't- have wings, and doesn't want her morphing amulet to be revealed. Jyrras finding out he's been beaten to the market on the patches might raise several awkward questions.
The other is that she (off screen) found out about Abel and is freaking out for that reason, which just occured to me. However, I'm not certain Lorenda knows about Abel, let alone Kria.
:erk ???
I will say that Kria is a better mother than most.. Most mothers would freakout in front of their children even if they can help it. Mine would...yet back to the comic.
Well, the last few posts are going into left field.. way into Left field...
This possible effective Kria's spy mission is a little low on the list, as Lorenda having small wings. Remember Kria told Lorenda, that If she got wings. they would be Fully grown. These short wings may point to something worst...which we, the readers, can only guess. Maybe it's the impossibility of a Half demon with "half" wings, or prophecy about one coming along...Doom, destruction, Angel and Demon living together. Mass panic...
PBH
Kria's expression in the last panel is really cute... and I can't help but wonder how similar Jyrras's reaction is going to be to hers.

I must say Kira is keeping a cool head better than many would even try.
Her daughtor is in a bit of a crisis, with a guy that Mom finds attractive (really scarry thought), who also her daughtor has a great respect for and Mom has been ordred to watch.

Dan.
How would you explain this? Is it just because he was his first friend/saviour or something?
No... this would just be Lorenda misconstruing the situation. Or more likely, just be thinking he's trying to change the subject of what he told her to avoid confrontation and never actually believe him.

Unlikely. Jyrras probably knows about the amulet. When he explained the whole thing to Lorenda, she probably said something about her mother having an amulet that did the same sort of thing.
Abel's story shows that morphing amulets were fairly common knowledge over 300 years ago. Serves to assume they weren't forgotten.
As for that cart, they seem to be standard fair. You can see one in the background of http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_356.php , not to mention a lovely sign for them.

It being Zinvith, the demon city, and Hennya being specifically a student of magical artifacts (http://missmab.com/Comics/Abel_77.php), I don't think it's at all safe to assume that they are common knowledge. It's possible that such amulets are a fairly specialized knowledge, or even a forgotten discipline, though that's unlikley, since the other creatures in Hennya's classes(and Hennya herself) could be very long lived.
Kria has had her morphing aumlet for all the strips so far . She was shown to have one as a teacher in her 20's when Abel was in 1 st grade having magic lessons . Therefore, I presume the aumlet she wears is one and the same as she wears today, and in her clothing while teaching ?

I don't get why anyone's bothered by a Grypon manually pulling a cart. We have people in the real world who do that for a living.
Well, it could be a local only transport...high speed ground.
but one wonders if the gryphons can fly with a cart trailing behind them... mmm it would depending on the amount of lift and/or magic the gryphons got. and how light the cart is made with material plus magic.

For my next one I'm probably going to stick with the working title which is
'Pancake Ferret' (http://missmab.com/Comics/Vol_660.php).

Exactly how Cid and May are going to react when she enters the house in full Demon form could be interesting as well.
Back before they moved to Zinvth May tells Cid that he himself said "Not all demons are evil" and they should be comfortable with ones with wings, as other teachers from school seem to have had them (http://missmab.com/Comics/Abel_22.php). The only difference Kria seems to have is the presence of wings, not that big a change, and I'm sure they knew she was a demon already if not by the fact she was a teacher in the school, perhaps by her name (Moira Gianna's question to Lorenda - "Soulstealer eh? That from the demon class?). I don't expect Kria to come busting in either, she'll probably knock politely.
Looking ahead, is Kria the one to stabilies the situation , and much later send off an application to SAIA for Abel later ?
She'd have to know of it first. Likely, but unknown at this point.
Remember the amulet kria had in # 229 ?
The way I understand you, you're thinking that since Kria has a charm that magically hides her wings, that implies a connection to or at least knowledge of SAIA. I'm kinda thinking that charm is sorta standard as a means of creature disguise.
I still don't understand why the morphing Aumlet is not put Abels hands again . It could have stabelized the situation . Also, will Kria rampage in now, killing May and Cid ? Don't think so .
what ??? May and Cid are 400 years dead by now. This is the DMFA thread... I think?
I think your last post should be in Abel's story thread, Kaskar
... And yes the amulet can be 400 years old and Kria seem to say that Abel should have it to get home, she may have taken it, back. or Brought a new one... and also :shapeshifters why would he need one.?
The side effects of the amulet's magic, that a young Kria blew off, are now surfacing on Lorenda. Remember Cid said something about magic exposure effecting adventurers and their offspring, so magic could also effect Creatures' offspring, too. It just takes longer. Oh boy, Let's hope creature mages have come up with a cure in the last 400 years... when again maybe not.
PBH
Except... He's NOT talking about the current comic... so your explanations of everything don't really mean anything because Abel barely knows what a cubi is at that point.. Also, Cid didn't say magic exposure affects people and their kids, he just said "weird things happen". Even if it has a grain of truth, most likely he was BSing to try and settle things down anyway. Remember that the comic joke said it was that BRAND, likely meaning there was a good chance of there being another kind, (maybe more expensive? is Kria cheap?) not so prone to bad side effects.
I can see why Lorenda 's wings could just be she is a half breed. 1/2 bull (deceased)/ 1/2 demonmare
