I’m eager to see their response to knowing a rabbit killed seral.

2024-03-15 23:55:08 +0000 UTClol! “Mommy the rabbit left these flat green rocks. Whats it say?” “Front… towards.. enemy?” Hemlock in the distance: Click, click, boom!!!

2024-03-15 23:49:26 +0000 UTCI like to think the gasp was for dead seral. It's funny to me to imagine that his death only gets a moment of surprise from them and that's it. "Oh no! Anyway,"

2024-03-13 05:11:52 +0000 UTCAh, thank you! I appreciate it when people point stuff like that out, it's easy to miss when I've been staring at a page for hours. I'll fix it soon!

2024-03-13 04:15:12 +0000 UTCAlso, don't want to be picky, but it seems Swift's injury is not present in the last panel with them all hugging.

2024-03-13 03:30:52 +0000 UTCI am so glad that I can breathe. I do wonder if Hemlock stopped herself, or if someone stumbled upon her, like Rask or possibly Oren if he went looking for Rask.

2024-03-13 03:27:00 +0000 UTCWhoa yo Hemlock took Seral’s tail as a trophy!
Chipster
2024-03-12 04:07:57 +0000 UTCAnd then Hemlock activates a booby trap and kills all four of them

2024-03-12 02:39:41 +0000 UTCAtta girl, Hemlock!!! I'm so glad the family is together! Now looking forward to if/when Swift and Rask meet again. I'm also wondering when Swift will make the connection between the hare that killed Seral but spared her pups, the fact that Rask mentioned a hare wielding fire, and the hare she heard about in Gristle's stories.

2024-03-12 02:04:54 +0000 UTCShort answer, yes, there is a language barrier between predators and prey. The difference is comparable to a thick accent that either party needs to parse, like a regional dialect of whatever 'animal language' is. Longer answer: I felt like writing and drawing a protracted scenario where Rask is learning the prey's language and vise-versa through Egg would be really boring (for me). This was right around page ~75 when I wasn't sure if I wanted to keep working on the comic, so my goal was to get to the parts that were interesting to me. I opted to short-cut the language-learning process. To explain that, my thinking is animals of a region share an ancient common root of language so it's easier to break boundaries, where-as even Rask would struggle to speak to another marten from say, analogous-Europe, and speaking to European prey would be almost impossible.

2024-03-11 23:47:24 +0000 UTCHi Teagan I would like to ask you something because I am very curious about this. If it won't be a spoiler. Could a predator and a herbivore communicate with each other? I already know that herbivores have to speak slowly for predators to understand them, but would a herbivore understand what a predator is saying to it? On page 280 we see that Cedar does not understand what Rask is saying to Swift. Do predators have to speak differently somehow when they want to talk to a herbivore?

2024-03-11 22:34:11 +0000 UTCHi Teagan, do you think it might be time to reveal that the bobcat that Hemlock was wearing in chapter 1 was a full grown adult and not a kit for non-patreons?
Microgrampup
2024-03-11 22:10:06 +0000 UTCIt's kind of ironic that the raven that not so long ago lead Seral is now feasting on his body. It seems Hemlock took a small souvenir but apparently wasn't able to hurt the pups (fortunately!). I'm happy to see the happy reunion of the family. Now I wonder if they will ask for the sanctuary...
Pantera
2024-03-11 21:47:40 +0000 UTCThe framing with the crow is amazing, had me worried even more than last week for a second. I'm happy the pups turned out okay. Amazing stuff as always.
Loïc Van Doorn
2024-03-11 21:47:32 +0000 UTCSeems like Hemlock took the tail and left. Not what I was expecting.
Tirosu
2024-03-11 21:25:31 +0000 UTCMy head-cannon is that Hemlock wears Serals tail and dresses up like the fox-tailed warrior lady from the Conan The Conqueror movie.
Corvin
2024-03-11 21:25:24 +0000 UTCI am genuinely surprised. I thought she was more unhinged than that. But I'm relieved, nonetheless. :)
TheGreatSako
2024-03-11 21:15:38 +0000 UTCGood for you, Hemlock.
Grey
2024-03-11 21:13:40 +0000 UTCI think Hemlock's past experiences with loosing young ones kept her from killing the pups.
Fixion Shepherd
2024-03-11 21:11:56 +0000 UTCMY RELIEF <33 But man Seral being the one getting eaten by the bird after telling Red he looked like meat. Lots to unpack there xD
Wyn Bird
2024-03-11 21:10:03 +0000 UTCOh good! I was worried there for a week or two
Kenny Rosser
2024-03-11 21:08:41 +0000 UTCMaybe Hemlock took it as a souvenir…
Maximus Coyotox
2024-03-11 21:04:10 +0000 UTCI'd like to see that conversation.. "mom! this rabbit jumped out of the tree with a stick and killed Seral!"
Lord ryven
2024-03-11 21:03:50 +0000 UTCAgh thank goodness
Alicia Taylor
2024-03-11 21:02:24 +0000 UTCOh thank goodness! I was terrified. I did not expect Hemlock to spare them. Unless this is a trap…
Karly Gay
2024-03-11 21:02:19 +0000 UTCYay! The family is together! But where’s Hemlock?
Maximus Coyotox
2024-03-11 21:01:07 +0000 UTCWooooo!!!!!
CelestialChaos
2024-03-11 21:01:04 +0000 UTCThe pups are alive!!!
