(I've read as much of the comic as I could find on the website. x3 I loooove it, and I remember the 'Hot dwarf-on-dwarf action'. -smirks- xDDD It's funny-didja see the strip when they were in the battle, and Elan and Hayley got told off for passing messages? I loved that! It's probably my favourite strip, next to the one where Roy is paralysed and Belkar and Elan draw all over him...)
Jhijhi drew her feet away in some distaste. Healing the gnome had taken its toll on her, and she still felt shaky and weak (Finbiddle hadn't had enough life energy to heal himself completely, so she'd had to give him some of hers-it'd come back in time, but for the moment she felt vaguely sick), but that didn't mean she would let someone like that sob over her boots. She'd had trouble finding those boots. They were good ones, and had cost quite a lot. Sorrelwing made a show of considering the offer, but really her mind had been made up the minute he mentioned food, and the decision cemented when he reminded her that staying where she was would get her coat dusty. Besides, it promised to be more interesting than sitting on a road all day, and if they failed in preventing the end of the world she could always turn on her companions and at least die with a full stomach. "I'm coming," she announced, swivelling to face them and flexing her talons so they scored scratches on the rock. Jhijhi pulled a face. "We don't have to go round with her, do we?" The Sphinx shot the young woman a vicious look. "I'm definately coming."

"Ah, c'mon, think of the possibilities of havin' a Sphinx with us, Jhijhi... such a powerful an' beautiful creature..." He chuckled a bit and grinned, "Ha ha, lucky me, travelin'' with two pretty ladies." Finbiddle looked at Sorrelwing, "Yes, such a lovely creature... a powerful creature... thank you, thank you! I promise I'll give you a banquet, or two, or three! All of you, I shall reward you richly!" Though the gnome's clothes were ruined by the fire, they did seem to once be of high quality. "All right then. It's settled. Shall we go?" Kamui said, kicking dirt onto the cooking fire to smother it. "Yes! We must make haste! The device could go off at any moment and we have such a long way to go!" Finbiddle cried, jumping to his feet, "The Maester... she was last rumored to be see across the ocean, in the kingdom of Märmosia, somewhere on the Basque Plains. I was heading to my home, where I have supplies for the trip. Come, come!" He made to leave, then eyed the cube on the ground, hesitant to pick it up again. Suddenly a translucent bubble of bluish-white energy appeared around the cube, lifting it into the air. Finbiddle watched with a mixture of amazement and confusion. "I got this one, man. I happen ta' know a few tricks utilizing Ki." Kamui said as the device floated beside where he stood. "How do you...? You must let me study you if we survive this mess... but I digress... Come, come!" Finbiddle set off down the path, waving for them all to follow.
(Hmm. I don't remember those particular strips, but they do sound funny. I've only read up to #390-something though, so I just may not have gotten to those strips yet.)

(I can't remember what numbers those strips are, but you probably won't have got to the big battle yet if you're only in the 300s... -zips mouth to prevent any spoilers leaking-)
Sorrelwing preened herself, basking in the praise. She was a sucker for compliments, and also food. Running her rough tongue over her tawny fur briefly, and making sure her tail-tuft was looking its silky best, she hopped down from the rock and stretched catlike, spreading her bronze-feathered wings to their full span. "Let's go," she purred. "The sooner we save the world, the sooner we can be rrrrrewarrrrded..." She rolled her Rs exaggeratedly, casting a sly smile towards Finbiddle before glancing back over to Jhijhi. The young woman was on her hands and knees, gathering energy, blonde hair straggling from under her hat. The Sphinx smirked unpleasantly. "Oh dear, are you having trouble?" she asked, in a false, syrupy voice. Jhijhi snarled furiously and pushed herself abruptly to her feet. "No more than you will in a minute, animal," she growled, yanking her broadsword out of its scabbard. The tip wavered in the air-it was a heavy weapon and Jhijhi wasn't at her full strength-but Sorrelwing backed off anyway, growling angrily.
(Gosh...why is it such fun to have my characters really despise each other? xDDD)

"Ya' say animal like it's an insult," Kamui called over his shoulder, flicking his furry tail, "Humans are animals too, ya' know? In any case, please let 'er be, Sorrel." "Hurry, hurry!" Squeaked Finbiddle. ""You will not be able to collect your reward if we are all... d-dead!" Kamui turned and extended a hand, a dopey, kindhearted grin on his face, "Here, lean on me if you're tired, Jhijhi. We're comrades, we gotta look out for each other."
(Big battle, eh? You must mean Xykon [who is one of the best villains ever] marching is army on the paladin place, right? That should be interesting indeed when he gets there.)

(Yeah, that's the one. n_n -loves that battle- I like the monster that lives under the umbrella. xD Apologies for not being on for ages. I've had 3956352 things all going on at once...)
"All right," Sorrelwing said ungraciously, flicking her tail irritably. Jhijhi sheathed her sword with an irritated tzing noise and brushed back her straggling blonde locks with a hand that trembled. "Whatever," she said. "Humans may be animals, but at least they're not animals like her." Sorrel stuck her tongue out childishly and stalked ahead, tawny hindquarters swaying in a way that made Jhijhi itch to kick. She probably would have, if she hadn't been somewhat taken aback by Kamui's offer of support. "Uh...thanks...but I can manage. I've done it before." Her monkey bounced on her hat, chattering to itself in excitement.

"Thank you, Sorrel." Kamui said, then looked back at Jhijhi. "All righty, but the offer still is still on the table if ever ya' find yourself in trouble." He turned back and walked on. "that goes for you, too, gorgeous." He said to Sorrelwing as he came beside her. "We are almost there," Finbiddle announced suddenly, "My home is just around this bend." "But I don't-- Ohh... Thought I smelled something." Kamui began as Finbiddle snapped his fingers. A castle appeared just off the road where only a sad little clump of dead trees were a moment ago. As far as castles went, Finbiddle's was far from the largest (due in part to the fact it was built to Gnome specifications) or grandest, but still a castle nonetheless. "Illusions, a Gnome specialty." Finbiddle said before calling up to the Gnome guards on the rampart in Hagakarinese. The gates swung open and Finbiddle beckoned them into the inner courtyard. "Huh," shrugged Kamui, who spoke Hagakarinese, "Whadda ya' know... he's the local daimyo. What're the chances?"
(He he, yeah, I like the thing under the umbrella, too. I wonder if we'll ever get to see what it looks like... Though I suppose that would kinda ruin it, huh?
Anywho, it's fine. I know a lot of people this time of year are busy. I mean, it took me a few days to reply.)
