Yarrr! Avast, mateys! This here now be a thread where ye can only speak like a pirate, arrr! And I must say, Niall makes a dashing scoundrel, and Kirian is a fine parrot! And all know that the meaning of life is treasure! Treasure and wenches! Not winches, though those be mighty useful on the sea! Yaarrr! Yo-ho-ho!
You can't see it, but the scroll says:
The Guardian
Increase in stealing shit
on the high seas
....and then a load of rubbish laid out like newspaper columns.
Also, if anyone has hints on making water look better, I would like to know. I'll need it in a few weeks.
...Is it just me, or is there something...wrong...with Pirate-Niall's chest? And I'm not talking about the one he's standing on...

The frills, you mean? I
told Ren about that. It is better. Originally it looked like he had three boobs.

That's exactly what it still looks like... :aack
Also, I like how Kirian is trying to look through the telescope with her eye-patched eye.

I've removed the frill. We might update it again later if Ren can find a way.
For those who are curious, this is the old version:

...comments/suggestions on the water would be much appreciated.
You know, Niall needs a flag. Like, his clan marker over a pair of crossed bones.
I kinda liked the frills more. A pirate shouldn't have such a flat chest.

It's still the same...and I'm still using the pic-link in your sig to get to the site, if that matters.

Ah, there we go.
I love the way the strip goes completely non sequitar in the second panel.

That would be kind of cool. I'm not sure where it could go, though.
Here's a couple of more questions from a reader. Why did Niall dress as a pirate? Who took the photo? Was Niall aware of such photography? Why does Yak still have it?
Pirates are really sexy. :3
On a serious note, I wonder why Niall was dressed like a pirate in the first place. XD
Also, great art, Ren. c:

Do they celebrate Halloween on Furrae?

Hm... I was thinking right behind him, but it might also work as a background object.

I don't know about canon, but in some of my writings I posited a similar celebration:
I placed [the body] upon my bed. The entry and exit wounds to his head were now gone, a cheap trick. Such grotesque uses of shapeshifting and projected illusion were a staple of the extravagant Hallows Eve parties which took place at SAIA... some of the best students had actually been mistaken for undead.Quote from: Pagan on April 11, 2009, 08:25:41 AM

From the second panel, Niall is very much aware of it. I don't know what Ren had in mind, but my reasoning is that it was some kind of ren-fair thing, which Niall is happy to be photographed at, while not necessarily being happy to have said photograph widely distributed.
Well, as of Tuesday we were in danger of having the strip completed in time this week, but Ren seems to be offline again. Since the main strip will require an entirely new backdrop, I don't know how long it will take even after I get the lineart.
'Walk in the woods' will be updating on schedule tomorrow, though. With luck I'll be able to clarify things with the main story by then.
I am beginning to suspect that Ren's internet connection has gained sentience, and is an anti-furry.
I hope we reach him soon. And at least WitW will be up tomorrow.
