seeing this latest page i'm reminded of the info page showing the distance that the rash can travel depending on what the source is.

"some trolls have been known to spit."

but have trolls been known to expel bile from tanks on their back?  O_O

I don't know who, but I agree with whoever said that someone on this expedition really needs to start taking notes!!! Never mind valuable books, never mind Onni, think of what they could do with all this information of the silent world!

I have a headcanon that Mikkel penned his memoirs after these expeditions, but skewed somewhat to cast himself in a more favourable light and liberally laced with 'true stories,' while ignoring the role of magework.  This memoir became the prevailing reference document for histories of the events.

I've made fanworks extrapolating artworks produced in the future, based on these memoirs.  Copenhagen has been resettled and is flush enough with cash to indulge in rediscovering cultural forms.
There is an opera,
and a version of the Nutcracker ballet.

That's amazing, Wave! I love the details in the Opera drawing and how you managed to put all the characters there, and...

Haa! It’s Mikkel the Greek God again

...and of course Mikkel the Greek God, facing their enemies with its bare hands!

I especially love the detail of how one of the trolls wounds Tuuri by pulling the red scarf into the air. I take you know a lot about stage productions, Wave!

Thanks for that!
I maaaay have seen a few ballet/dance performances in my lifetime (my ex was a sometime ballet dancer), in the years before I got poor. 
(The 80s were gooood times for dance.  Duck AIDs.)

Nothing quite like ballet, is there? I go on the rare occasions I can afford to, and my middle daughter was very involved in her youth, so I saw a lot of the backstage and design stuff. She actually intended to be a dancer until she destroyed her Achilles tendons running marathons in her late teens. A pity, she would have made a fine strong ballerina- tiny but muscular.

*splutters incoherently*

The opera and the ballet are...

*more spluttering*

I am soooo impressed. Brilliant. This made my day, after a long, chaotic and aggravating week.

I have now stared at that opera image on three different occasions, and each time I find a new detail.

Just noticed that the Cat-Tank is now in Mikkel's image. I am now deceased.

(Actually, the picture is of the Nutcracker, with the big Mikkel being the Nutcracker grown large.  There was a large cattank in the pencils, in the back of the stage, but I couldn't get it to work and it didn't make the final image.  I substituted the star pendants as a last-minute addition.)(But thanks!)
(There are no images of the opera, as in the fic the players were just gathered around a bare stage in their normal clothes, singing off their printed parts.)

I already asked myself how that thing stands over those spiky legs. I seems that it moves on fours and now is standing just because it has the glass to support. If that's the case maybe it will get immobilized, turtle-style, if it falls on its back. If only it didn't have so many friends...

BTW Lalli's concept of "not big, not many" needs clarification :)

(and it looks like I made it and became a safe-zone citizen! Yeah!)
