The creature looks unfinished and the entire lower half of it is copied from the previous page, not a single pixel changed

Also since it's fused with the now fallen wall, does this mean the creature was laying on it's back all the time so far? lol

Yes, I got that impression as well. It flipped up like when someone steps on a rake.

Another impression I am having:

I'll officially fall in love with this comic if Undead Miss Flip-Up-Tesla-Coil narrates this!

Updates are coming fast lately. I wonder why.

Also, I wonder if blowing out the candle will shut off the power line.

Elli wrote some details on this page are missing, and she will update the page once she's back from a trip:

I still need to add a few details, but I'm leaving town early in the morning, so I have to pack and sleep. I'll be back in a 2 days, at which point I'll finish up this pesky page.

Also, I love you!

In a good story there’s a feeling that each event proceeds from what has come before. With tragedies, readers talk about a feeling of inevitability; that the terrible outcome couldn’t have been avoided. All the pieces were in place, and the characters, just by being who they are, were always going to find themselves at this climax, as much as they would never have chosen it.

This is a hard feeling to create, especially while maintaining a sense of moment-to-moment surprise! But when a story is working, you can look back and say ‘of course, given A and B, C had to happen.’ At minimum, a reader thinks ‘yeah, that makes sense.’ It’s the work of scholarship and deep reading to parse what it was about a given story that gave it that tight, bing-bang-boom narrative momentum.

This story has lost that thing. This now feels like a series of things happening. I’m watching characters do things, and then unrelated things happen. MOST of them still feel like characters, at least, though not all.

More urgently I have no idea where anyone is going, nor how close they are to getting there. I am not at all at the point to even consider if their destinies seemed earned or not. Such things as motivation just... elude me right now.

What is Idle and Bowst (and freaking Salt... Pepper??) doing here?
What motivated Kin to get back? Has she asked MinMax or Forgath about the"EKN" in her IME yet?
If she and MinMax is so cojoined, how come his IME remains unchanged?
If they are cojoined, why is there so little chemistry between them? Or is that just me?
How close are they to getting through the Dragon's Maw? How will this make them get any closer to where they need to be, once they actually get out of the dungeon?
How close is Kore?
Why is Biscuit hanging out with Fox and Dies still? Why did they conclude they had to go through Bumptown and not around? Where are they even going at this point? To Dies village? Why is he bringing Goblin-masher Deluxe Biscuit along? Why is Fox following?
Are they hunting Junior? Dies does not sound like they are when he commented on the Bumptown massacre. Do they even know that there is no end to Junior's growth and he will end up consuming the realm unless stopped? Because Forgath-Idle-Bowst were told this, but Dies know nothing of any of this.

These are excellent questions which would absolutely be removed by the mods of the goblins subreddit within minutes with the explanation of "no bullying".

Page is updated. I think I liked Kin's expression better in the previous version.

Yeah, why are her eyes now black?
The last panel is a tad too dark for me.

Anyway, let's see what will come up.

Minmax eyes became black too when he touched her and got electrocuted too, so maybe that's the normal reaction in this world?

I have no idea if anyone is in any danger, so I dunno. I guess that is a bad thing. Everything is so sudden and goofy and weird, so I don't know what to feel.

Next page might still be a bit, Elli didn't draw the last week(s).
