It's going to be very weird talking about this chapter before we get to a certain reveal... Eh, still no reason it can't be a huge ride.
But yeah; it's a good show that it's time we finally showed this guy. Build-up is a very important element for a big threatening bad guy, but if you let it build too long then whatever you wind up doing will be an anticlimax. The Light That Remembers has been given a really great show to how threatening they are, but it's time we finally tore the wrapping off that present. This was a good page highlighting that.
And also re-iterating how the locks are important. Especially like playing that up since we just mentioned it over in Blues.
This is what a lot of this chapter's going to be - Alex, Ropun, and Lillian sitting around talking. Kind of a low stakes cool off sort of chapter before we get big into the action that's a nice chance to just let the characters both examine the current situation and bounce off of each other.
Something I definitely wanted to do right off the bat in doing that is make it clear that Lillian touched the lock back during this filler arc. We never actually saw her do so at the time, but between the fact Christina was doing so and at the time Alex didn't know about the effect of touching it it really just kind of felt like there's no reason she wouldn't have touched it at any point during that conversation, but still better to make that explicit here. Actually had a bit of an oversight here where Adam initially mistakenly drew Lillian not playing with the rock and we were split on whether to rework her dialogue saying she was or tweaking the art and we decided under the circumstances editing the art was the better decision.
So yeah. Bit more direct information than we've gotten about the Light That Remembers to this point, but a lot of it's still very foggy. Hope everyone enjoys as we continue to examine this current situation and then eventually start addressing it.
