He fell asleep on the late afternoon/evening of the day they reached the Amalienborg palace, slept that night (being asleep when Leaftroll attacked)and the following day (which was the day Mikkel went to Kastellet). He was still asleep when the ghosts hit them, some 24 hours after they arrived. He slept through that, though he was conscious, and in human form, in the dreamworld when the ghosts tried to get into his haven, and had enough connection to his body to grab Emil. Then he slept through their escape from Copenhagen, and woke around mid-morning of the next day. So yeah, likely a bit over thirtysix hours.

if I remember correctly, then Lally was sleeping a little more than a day ~36 hours or so

Ah okay! Thanks for having a better memory than me (and/or looking it up and not being lazy like me).

No problem! I tend to remember at least rough detail of tales I hear or read, because one of the things I do in real life is storyteller. If I'm in the middle of telling a folktale at a library or reciting a saga in the Viking encampment at a Mediaeval Fair, I can't stop to look up details. And the back of my head seems to have classified Minna's work under the heading of 'folktale'.

Onni is going to be *pissed* when he finds out that Reynir is lying to him.

[Grade E cat]

Well considering Onni is unconscious right now the dreamspace is probably anyone's only means of contacting him right now. Does anyone remember how long it took for Lalli's luonto to return? I know this isn't the same thing, but it's the best comparison I can think of right now.

I know that, but unless Onni stays comatose for a full two weeks (I can see him taking longer than Lalli to recover, but not that much longer), there is going to be some overlap between him being awake and Tuuri's quarantine.

[thorny]

I wonder whether all that gorgeous scenery is deliberately intended to disagree with Onni about the world being a terrible place?

Although it is dreamworld scenery.

[DaemonDan]

Dreamworld and pretty, but also with some ominous shadows and roots at the bottom edges...

[urbicande]

I suspect that spaces in the Mage Chat Room are a reflection of where a person feels most comfortable (in theory; Onni is terrified of the Silent World and yet his own space is very outdoorsy)

[Róisín]

I suspect Onni's Haven is a bit of the country where he grew up, around the Saimaa lakes.

On this new chapter cover, does anyone else see Skulls in the snow on the tree? Am I just getting paranoid? XD

[Anna]

More like pareidolia. No skulls that I can see.

My Febuary vacation reading included both a binge of "A redtail's dream" and a Tuuri death fic titled after the bird's path. Beacause of this, I'm actually kind of unsettled by the birds on that cover, no matter how beautiful they are otherwise.

So, the cattank seems to be running again, and that cover at least looks like they are about to reach the military base, which could, for example, be on an island connected to the mainland with a bridge. Would be easy enough to defend, at least.

But I am SO scared about seeing any sudden progress of Tuuri's disease.

It's not a given yet that Tuuri has it.  (if she does, I expect Sigrun to just shoot her)

Me too... someone on the Disqus comments also talked about the symbolism of crossing a river (i.e, the boundary between the mortal world and the afterlife.) I'm pretty worried about Tuuri all around...

True. (That would be heartbreaking, though.)
