  1. i added hover text at the bottom..
    let me know what you think…!

    • Came through clear.
      Two lines each applicable to one story.
      Ya done good!

  2. Damn! Betrayal by family is the worst of all!

  3. Sam

    I’ll admit, I did not see that coming for Gopi.
    Damn!
    May they burn in hell is right.

    Half a league

    Rode the Five Hundred……

    • The charge of the light brigade.
      Has to be one of THE MOST MONUMENTAL
      military cluster humps in history.
      Total failure of command! All those troops
      killed for nothing.

      • Custer’s Last Stand in a nut-shell,
        although, some of the things I’ve read
        about that man, if he would have survived
        he would have been court-martialed
        and shot.

  5. It’s so sad that she had to live with that, I think
    she needs to talk to Kathy as well as counseling.

    Heh, well now we get some intel from the brother
    and what it was meant for. Still, I can’t see the
    Legion having a use for it, so I think it’s in the
    best place for now.

    I think we need a map. A border between France and Romania?
    WTH happened to the world after the collapse?
    Do we have a Polish – Chinese border too? 😉

    • They couldn’t pass through other countries on the way to Romania?

    • I was wondering the same thing myself.
      I also wondered what the legion was doing in Europe.

        My guess would be that we are SOME time after the incidents where
        Romania joined the Empire (and Teresa got a ‘significant other’).
        Naturally the Legion will expand into the member states/planets
        over time, therefore also Romania…
        Whatever had happened to Germany is anybody’s guess…

        • You’re right. With her western and eastern borders secured by
          friendly nations, the only dangerous border is to the north.
          Since the Legion been a low-level diplomatic force as well as a
          skirmish fighting force, (“It’s an invasion force? Well, fall back
          and call the Marines. This is their sort of shtick, anyway.”)
          Which pretty much sums up their role in the Catian Slave Revolt.
          So, yes, they’re all over the Empire, as well as outside it’s
          borders, teaching oppressed people how to resist tyranny.

      • Gave me a start, too.
        “France” and “Legion” together conjures up Beau Geste.
        And I think of the Empire’s Legion as being a North American
        thing, but it IS already planted on Catia, and it only make
        sense that other kingdoms would use the same solution
        for the same sorts of folk that Jerico (through Teresa) did.

    • Sam

      Nowhere does it say they went from France directly into Romania.
      They escaped from France, and were less than half a kilometer from
      Romania when the Muslims caught up to them. Any number of
      ex-countries, fiefdoms, new countries, barren zones could have been
      between what was France and the new, smaller Romania.

    • Refugee’s know no borders. How many people have come to the USA
      from China, Poland, Russia, and so on to escape war and oppression.
      In TGW, Romania IS part of the Empire, same thing…

  7. Gopi, your family doesn’t deserve to be well
    remembered, and their crimes should be told!
    You’re laying next to 2 lie detectors, use them.

    • Plus Mist could share your memories in images if need be.

    • That wouldn’t benefit Gopi, and might cause problems for her.
      Debby and Chirk discussed this in panels 4 & 5 here:
      (Just substitute “victim” for “slave”)

    That I know of, I’ve only ever known one child molester, a guy who
    lived up the street, and that only came out after he was arrested,
    tried and convicted. For abusing his own daughters. He’s in the
    slammer on eighteen counts. I don’t know what the total number of
    years he was sentenced to, but it’s too few if he ever gets out.

    • The best defense against repeat child
      abusers is a 6 foot dirt barricade.

      • Sam

        Straight up above them?
