    I am refraining from further speculation at this point. I will say that I really like panel four. It appeals to my Buffy fan side.

    One rather simple thing Sarah can do, as a D rank talent with an S rank spell, is take huge bites out of the ambient magic buildup.  It doesn't fix the problem, but it buys time.

    If you used gold and it got tarnished, I would be really, really worried about what they had poisoned the drink with.

    Since it had been in the car for that long, presumably it had already turned into Queen's Greatest Hits?

    Hmmmm ... I remember taking apart one which I left in parked car in summer and putting the tape to another which was in original shape compatible with the tape player. The recording was also damaged, but still possible to listen to it ...

    Ah, the bad old days. The electronic revolution really has been wonderful. About the only thing I miss about the old ways is LP covers.

    Not this again.  The problem is that a preposition was lost in translation and few words were misspelled.
    The title was actually Coming In Fourth by Dey.  It was a memoir from Susan Dey on her coming to terms with being the fourth most popular Partridge.
    How it was translated into Hieroglyphs and transported to the Old Kingdom is something no one could ever explain to me.

    The Old Hack got a reaction from Drasvin in Immortal Alignment   
    Ah, me. That reminds me of the time I played a paladin in a rather silly campaign way back in First Edition AD&D (which wasn't called that, it was just AD&D). We all kept making various silly jokes, meta and otherwise. My own most successful one caused the DM to throw a pillow at me and was based on the fact that paladins were so snobbish that they would only adventure at most once with people that they weren't sure was of good alignment.
    We'd been on three adventures. At the end of each adventure, my paladin had sold his horse and bought a new one. At last the DM gave in to his itch and had the horse trader ask me, "Why do you keep coming back for a trade? Is there something wrong with the horses I'm selling?"
    And my paladin replied, "Yes. They aren't Good enough for me." (Due to horses automatically being Neutral in the game.)
    Cue pillow to the head.

    You know, I'm kinda wondering if, in the EGS universe, the ancient gods really did exist, and were actually the Immortals before they set up their rules. They would have been so ancient and powerful and bored that they were constantly meddling in the affairs of mortals, demanding sacrifices and tribute and such, then the "Clash of the Titans" happened, nearly destroyed everything, and the Immortals agreed things had to change.
