Seems more and more likely that Duane's second in command is gay for him.

Well, that escalated infinitely.

this update has everything i could've asked for and more
Shame Lemuel had to take it too far. Hormonal teenager, the jets were even enjoying the moment.
Introducing the age scale of the castes with a song number about sleeping with them. I fuckin love Cope
I don't know why but Lemuel chucking those guys porn in the fire made me L O L
Holy fucking shit this update was magic and that song number was FIRE
Also Jesus Christ Lemuel, chill. You were doing just fine going at those Jets verbally
>snacky snacks vliegeng and Pilot are fucking dead
damn, I called it, but I didn't think it'd be this soon. Gotta be some big pymary happening here if the plats felt it so strongly
He's such an absolute shit and I can't get enough of this psychotic Soud fuckboy
Riotously gay updates are the best updates
someone please assemble this into a proper animated gif. The version on the site was done with like layers or something and it doesn't look right saved out.
>He stole that one plat kid's soup to throw at Martin
What does he mean they aren't real Aldish? Is it because the have a normal human lifespan?
>duane kissing an underage boy
Most Aldish citizens don't trust Souds because they are unaffected by the dammakhert. Most aldish can sort of sense each other I believe because of it, but Souds can't be sensed due to not having any connection to the dammakhert, so they are seen as untrustworthy.
Golds are unaffected by the Dammakhert. They’re basically just normal unaltered people, unlike the other castes.
>pissmop wenches hotter than silver, plat, copper, sharte, some of the crescian girls
What are these niggas smoking
That kid is probably about the same age or older than Lemuel.
>this is a comic about the aftermath of a deadly civil war
They're descendants of Tains rather than rortidians and aren't bound to the Dammakhert either so they're a caste by formality
>Even the dog has big boobs
Silvers can compete, but Golds are the best. as it should beBlond hair and green eyes? Fucking delicious.
Did Claggert fucking die? The vliegeng looks like it landed right where he was running with his dog.
Nah, we know he survives the war as Ashley said he sent Duane letters after the war telling Duane to stop contacting him
This chapter of the Unsounded: the Brothers Adelier, in which Jon still fails to be the gayest nigga in Kasslyne
According to Ashley, Jon is 18.
ashley deliberately made jon 18
Thats right jay
Ah fuck that's right, looks like he's gonna just narrowly miss it then.
>Only has a decade of life left
>Is homo in a nohomo society
Life is cruel
Ayyyy Ashley, if you're lurking today, top tier shit. Your musical numbers are great, put more in.
Alds are legal at 12, boyo
>tfw when that fucking Soud with the lunatic brother sent you another letter
Ashley really managed to outdo herself with that song, makes the jingle from the Deadly Nevergreen seem tame with how bawdy it was. Soldiers gonna soldier I guess.
Tolkien eat your heart out. This is a proper fantasy song.
wow Sette really missed out on cunny bard Duane
I think that was the most references to vaginas I've read in any webcomic that wasn't pornographic, let alone in song-form.
That fucking kiss by Duane is the straightest gay thing I've ever seen.
I-Is that supposed to be an Efheby?
Are there groups of senet fetishists that are into that shit like bestiality?
>porno isn't of male human on nonhuman female
Lem was right to burn that trash, Ssael is disappoint
Human nature doesn't change. Of course there'd be porn of eldritch monsters.
>Jon doesn't even make it to 30 because he faps himself into an early for a plat grave to the memory of that night in Avelpit
I believe I remember the receptionist at the tentacle-themed love hotel was reading two-toe smut.
I was hoping for hypno. Little disappointed, but still good
>I was hoping for hypno
Get out of here Ruck
I thought Starfish was the rapist
Clearly you haven't read the Ruck/Bastion fuck comic.
I have not!
It's on Patreon, get crackin'.
not the only cunny sette missed out on
surprisingly sprite for a guy who just got stitches.
Across his face, nowhere else.
"Just" is a bit questionable. We're not certain how long it was between the mine incident and now

They're fucking kids?
Help me Yea Forums. It feels as though I'm losing interest in Unfounded. I haven't been reading for a few weeks now.
I even bought the physical books and I can't be bothered to check the site three times a week.
Isn't there an option so that you are notified when a chapter is completed?
Just do that and read it in bulk
... so?
that happens sometimes user. Tastes change. Perhaps your love will reawaken some day, and you'll have a lovely archive to binge on. In the mean time, nothing wrong with moving on to different pastures
That word didn't always have a connotation of kid piddling, it used to be just a alternate form of Cunt. Fun fact, the English word for Rabbit was originally Coney (rhyming with Money and Honey), until the word Cunny came into slang use, and so its pronunciation was changed to rhyme with Bony, and was anyway usurped by Rabbit (which originally meant baby coney).
R u dum
>lemuel still going on about how much he loves The Vaginas and how straight he is
getting a real 'hello fellow heterosexuals' vibe off of him too
Well THAT escalated... fairly slowly, and through song.
He wanted Teeth’s silver dong and Danila’s pig sticker
Naturally Ssael sees to it that Lem is thoroughly cucked out of every sinful situation. He copes by riding giant flying sky dicksnakes
You've spent too much time on Yea Forums. But, yeah, I've only seen it used in pedo contexts.
That IS a fun fact, and one I will abuse in real life.
I mean, Duane was singing that super fucking gay song, too, and he actually had kids.
You need to hang around in more places than just Yea Forums then.
It's difficult to keep passionate about a long story that updates a page at a time. I'd subscribe to the mailing list that alerts you when the chapter's done, and wait for that. If reading the whole chapter then still leaves you cold, find some new webcomics.
I was getting a little meh until this chapter started but these soldier boys have reawakened me.
I've heard it used nowhere else, and I hang with some raunchy people.
Not that user, I've heard it in the general cunt-sense all the time
oh he's so cute, bless him
>Lem was right to burn that trash, Ssael is disappoint
When will you realise that Lem is always right?
she also posted it on her tumblr

Lemuel is so far in the closet that nigga vacations in Narnia
Or maybe he lost all interest in sex because of severe PTSD.
I don't think being uninterested in fucking means you're gay. And they don't make demon snakes in non-phallic.
I've only ever heard cunnie in a non-kid diddling way. Well, now i've got another thing to be wary of.
Third Options aren't always gay, but it does help.
>Third option
I havn't been on tumblr for a while, someone translate the newspeak for me please?
>In love with a lizard. A tale of passion and scales.
The love hotel was called the happy tentacle, I’m sure people get up to everything and anything on this continent.
In Alderode, women are severely limited in the roles they can take within society. A woman could never be a soldier, a wright of any importance, or even own a business (Vienne was breaking the law in multiple ways). A Third Option is a woman who has decided to renounce womanhood and become legally recognized as a man. They have the legal rights of a man, but are pretty despised by most members of society. Also, if I remember correctly, they are never allowed to go back on their decision once they make it. No husbands, and I think no getting pregnant.
>No husbands, and I think no getting pregnant.
Once fully through the process they are sterilized and are expected to marry a woman, adopt kids, and support a family.
Lame, what's the point then, unless you happen to be a lesbian? What if you hate kids and just wanna make a lot of money? Fucking Alderode, stop being shit.
It is rather lame, Alderode is super patriarchal. The women there have precious few rights and the only way they can get more is to legally become a man.
>an heir with a spair and one more for ssael
This is great, user, thanks.
Alderode expects everyone to raise children, there isn't an option for 'I don't want kids'. Unless you're born a copper.
The third option thing is something that exists in our world, I assume Ashley read about it and decided it fit in Alderode. I think it's from the Balkans or somewhere east european like that
She's actually mentioned a few times that she didn't take inspiration from the real world but was then pleased to find out that something she made up had actually happened so it was more believable.
Just read it. Good shit good shit.
this
kid lemuel never shuts the fuck up about how much he loves having sex with women because he's conflicted and doesn't know why and wants to fit in
adult lemuel realised he liked dong at some point and now avoids talking about relationships at all
Are there Lemuel lewds on Patreon?
There's a least one picture of him swimming naked with Duane, and you can see pretty much all of Lemuel. Yes, that means penis too.
It used to be on Tumblr, I know, but I assume it's been purged from there. So it is almost certainly on Patreon now.
He's gay, gay for Duane.
Jon is 18, probably to encourage the smut artists. Aldish age of majority would be younger than that anyway and vary by caste I'm sure, probably enough to make a reader uncomfortable.
Silvers are the only competition we've seen for gold waifus.
I think Ashley can draw her own smut, but these days doing anything at all sexual with someone under 18, maybe even Duane's silly kiss, can get your ass targeted by SJWs. I'm sure she made him 18 to avoid those freaks.
Sette will never get to know about Duane's young man side, his big dad energy is too high.
>Are there groups of senet fetishists that are into that shit like bestiality?
We have reams of monster porn and bestiality. It's not a big surprise.
You're just hoping that because he's pretty an unattached.
He might just hate women in the same way and for the same reasons a lot of traumatized war veterans disdain civilian society.
Ashley got heat from what we would now refer to as SJWs (although calling them that is an anachronism that's not really descriptive, truth be told it's just simple Puritanism) a number of years back for the doodle of Duane trying to get rid of Sette's Pore Warriors. This was back when Unsounded threads were on /tg/ and not Yea Forums.
After Bastion brings Duane back to life, during the freakout he has when Lemuel finds him in the alley, he accuses Lemuel of trying to get rid of him so he can have Leysa all to himself. While Duane is obviously nowhere near a right state of mind during this, but accusing your gay brother of trying to steal your wife doesn't make much sense, so if he is a Vliegeng Rider I doubt Duane knew about it.
>Lem going full 'Nam means the Jets won't sing a song about how Big Titty Goth GFs are great, complete with Claggart strutting about as he belts out his lines
>Jon won't blush and sing about Platinum Bombshells because a fucking demon-snake almost crushed them

Silver women emerge as the clear superiorest option.
We've seen, what, two silvers and both were S-rank.

>But you can't question her humanity.
>I decided I wanted to focus less on the castes though, since they’re still a nebulous concept, and more on the Shartes and Crescians, whom we have personal experience with in the story. I think it was the right call!
>lem why won’t you get married the ghers elders wont stop yelling at me
>m-married to the temple, y-you know haha
Of course that excuse would pacify Duane for 15 years
>if she offends, just wait a while
That's brutal
Don't trust Roger, women don't stir him at all
Reminder that Timofey is technically a reverse trap ghost in that he’s the spitting image of Bastion’s dead sister but his pymaric AI resolved itself into a male persona
For a culture where fucking outside of caste is a taboo, they do seem to give it thought.
It being taboo just makes it hotter.
If I remember right the point is offering a legal loop-hole if a woman happens to be an exceptionally skilled spellwright or tactician or something , that way they can use her skills but not break status quo.
>Fell off of following every update during the middle of Litriya Shrine

Well that's a neat welcome-back present.
Tumblr's purge algorithm is shit. The dong remains.
Lets them into politics as well. The mayor of Duane Lemuel and Will’s hometown is third option
Who is hairy mcmanarms that pushed Lem supposed to be
Could be like the albanian sworn virgins, but those aren't supposed to have sex or marry...
Could be like nuer female patriarchs, but those only get full male rights after they are become naturally barren...
Can't think of a full 100% correspondence to the thing in the comic, but there are some cultural norms somewhere in the same ballpark.
shit tier fetish
Just some random guy he offended at the bath house, iirc.
>Ssael is disappoint
I'm pretty sure he fucked Illganyag. Her humanity addiction probably didn't come from just hanging out.
Reminder that Ssael probably boinked the tittybird which was actually Tirna.
Oh my. Thank you, user.
hivemind
As if Ssael didn't fuck tiddybird.
>albanian sworn virgins
those are interesting
>they may dress in male clothing, use a male name, carry a gun, smoke, drink alcohol, take on male work, act as the head of a household (for example, living with a sister or mother), play music and sing, and sit and talk socially with men.
Reminder that even though Timofey looks a bit young it's not pedophilia to want to pound his blue boipussy.
Lemuel's pretty manly.
I'd throw Sette in a pit to make Timofey tangible
Would it be worth the trouble of getting shanked when she climbs out of it?
>Never seen a Copper woman (do they exist?)
There's possibly one here.
Bastion's former gf was a copper woman named Elarosny Ficci.
I honestly don't think she is, Roger's copper shade was different, plus if coopers are so elusive and strange the hell would one be doing trying to cross a public border into Crese with a shoddy glamour? Doesn't fit the caste aesthetic at all
>torn clothing while being arrested
ssael forgive me for i wish to sin
This entire thing is glorious. Goddammit Cops, how do you do it?
OBVIOUSLY Ssael would be displeased that good god fearing aldishmen don’t peruse articles of human dickings of ancient beasts as is their birthright in this world
Yeah as we’ve seen Coppers are impossible to mistake for normal people, not really the other way around
“Paranoid Crescians” is the way it was put I believe
Big first material bawls loaded with a hundred generations of khert scraping
>suddenly reminded the context for this chapter is Duane telling an old two-toe a story
>now imagining zombie Duane somberly singing the song as an old lizard nods along
This chapter's cool but I want to get back to Sette! I'm hoping her and Jivi are going to kiss and make up (altho i know Sette's actually probably going to knife him instead).
I miss them too. This chapter feeds into some wild shit when we move back to the shrine though. It'll be worth it.
I can't wait for something nice to happen to Sette and Duane.
gud joke
>this is a webcomic
goddammit Ashley, stop setting standards this high
Sette's easy to please. She's happy if she comes across a few sem or an only slightly eaten pie. She finds reasons to be happy even if the world at large is being a dick.
Duane's much more miserable. But this army story does actually have a happy ending. We gotta earn it first though.
how do you tell a kid friendly version of a fucking huge ass flying snake raining insides all over you
>She finds reasons to be happy even if the world at large is being a dick.
The thief has the most valuable thing in the world without having to steal it.
Duane isn't as hard to please as you think! He takes a lot of joy in the little things too, there's this adorable comic where he drags Sette off the path just to watch the sunrise with her. Can't find it but im sure some nice user has it
He's apparently telling the PG version to Nana and the kids, but we're seeing how things actually went down. Not that Duane telling it how it actually was wouldn't be hilarious
>...and then my bro Lem started boogying so I shot some green smokey stuff out, right
>and he puts out this smooth line, right
>and my cute apprentince Jon, right, he starts strumming, like
>BWOWN BWONW BO BWO
>and Lem starts up, like AROUND THE LAND BEEN LED HAVE I...
>...
>And then he smacks Martin right in the chest with the soup!
I mean, yeah, Duane is better at finding ways to cheer himself up than a lot of other men in his horrid situation would be, but he's not good at genki like Sette is. Duane often turns to God, or to his memories (or as he will shortly, to scalding Nationalism and Zealotry). Sette turns to punching blind children in the face and stealing their candy.
>implying the sweet releases of death wouldn't be enough for him
>Sette turns to punching blind children in the face and stealing their candy.
Matty bullying again?
>He's apparently telling the PG
I wonder how much he has to skip over
>and then I glamoured up everyone to have blonde hair and huge norks
>even the dog, yes.
>and let me tell you, after a few months on campaign there were a few of the men who didn't look half bad glamoured that way
>and then this young Silver fellow, Teeth, stepped on a...
>...Rather misshapen rock, and sprained his ankle, necessitating he stay in the sick wagon...
You're talking to the author of the comic.
That comic with Duane and Sette is very cute, though. I think I have it saved somewhere - will try to find it.
............ I didn't read the nick name sorry ms cope I love your work
I do find it infinitely amusing that someone unfamiliar with Ashley's presence and name here accidentally lectured her about her own characters. Ashley has said she posts anonymously so I wonder if some user took umbrage with another user's flippant statement not knowing it was Ashley sliding in a small hint.
hilarious every time it happens
PG to him is probably
>we’d lost many fine lads to the Avelpitian filth and their bitch-queen helpers, but our spirits held resolute
The real pain are the Ssaelit morals and anecdotes he pauses to ramble about every few minutes
Love you, bebeh
It's really old and predates the comic, but still holds true to them, I reckon.
i feel like sette wouldn't know the word pedo
Never gets old.
She might not know "pedophile," although she's actually pretty verbose when she wants to be, but there's no way she hasn't heard various foulmouthed gangsters discussing one another's brothel preferences enough times to have picked up at least the common parlance for every possible paraphilia.
well the strip is older than the proper comic so it was probably before Ashley decided to have Sette use the glorious term "child lover"
She uses the word 'child-fancier' in the comic proper, doesn't she?
I find it somewhat more troubling that no one seems surprised by the existence of child-fanciers or (implicitly) child prostitutes. The clerk at the Happy Tentacle didn't exactly get some bouncers to cave Duane's head in.
Just the opposite for me. It would be more troubling if they didn't single those kind of people out as outliers and weirdos. Throughout history fucking children has been pretty much the norm. Ask the Romans and all the towelheads that fuck little boys to this day because they consider pussy so tainted.
It's lover, It doesn't seem to fly among Frumagems. Da has an age limit with his prostitutes and Stockyard beat up startfish when he tried to touch Sette.
>cure a child lover
implying child loving is seen as, if not a disease, a failure of character
Of course, this is Duane, self righteous Da, he'd see it as a disease no matter what
Or he's just cracking a joke.
He's absolutely cracking a joke, but 'cure' does have implications of its own
Update's fucking golden.
Musical number, in-comic fleshing out of the aldish caste system, raining vliegeng chunks.
And she held back one page so we get it one day sooner. Thanks Cope.
It's pretty hard, honestly, especially since we have such a small data set to go off of. Every Silver we've seen has been gorgeous. Golds are probably the most we've seen of a caste thanks to Duane. So the standards for both of them are pretty high.
But we haven't seen any of the other castes' women, besides Quig's wife and maybe some background characters. I feel most Jet women are probably cold bitches, but more from their situation than anything. Most jets would be pretty cool if they could just relax a bit and not worry about someone trying to use it as black mail material 100 years from now. If most plat women are like Quig's wife, then they've cornered the market on cuteness. Its just kinda awkward to do it with someone who lives no longer than 25. I wouldn't mind seeing more Bronze and Copper, though. That bronze-tan skin tone is pretty nice.
I'm glad, Claggart is a pretty interesting guy.
Was that actually true? I thought some user just greentexted it in a thread or two ago.
If he really is that tsun, that's amazing.
W-why do I want to see Elka with her own harem of ald/ss/?
It does seem a bit more like he's married to the job. Or perhaps a higher calling, if he's still balls deep in the plot that killed Duane. Could be that he is really trying to bring about divine judgement or some such and either doesn't want to get other people involved cause he either hates them, or doesn't want to see them hurt.
And the PTSD probably does a good bit too for killing the boner.
>Unsounded used to be on /tg/
Damn, I wish I could've seen it. Do they still do the occasional Unsounded thread, like they do with Dungeon Meshi? Why even have the other boards.
Now I'll have to check out the archives and see if there were any attempts at making an Unsounded system or setting. Trying to make the magic system work sounds both amazing and painful.
I swear to god I'm always seeing people ask Cope permission to design an Unsounded system and then nothing ever comes of it. I don't know if they're hoarding it to themselves or if they just realize how difficult it is and give up.
We still have Unsounded threads, or talk about it - usually when people ask for comic recs. I believe most of the homebrew attempts crashed and burned; pymary is a complex enough system not to lend itself well to pnp games.
>Was that actually true?
Yes.
How old is that? How long has she had all this shit written? I can't imagine being this patient as an author.
It's from the forumsping in-character Q&As. I know Cope has had most of the major details of the story nailed down for quite some time, but smaller ones shift.
It's from 2012 or so. I just found lots of archived Q&A on her main site:
casualvillain.com
It's one of the many things I respect the hell out of her for. She's got the outline all set up, knows all the beats, knows the characters incredibly well. With so many fantasy novels we have to worry about the author having to figure it out George R.R. Martin, I'm looking at you and how to get there. She doesn't seem to have that problem.
>at one script version Murkoph was going to actually escape the Khert, during the Silver explosion I think
It’s interesting to imagine the ways things might have gone
Look user there's absolutely nothing wrong with sending your characters off to totally different parts of the world with completely disconnected individual storylines without thinking of a way to actually tie them back in together. GRRM is a genius and there's no possible way it backfired on him.
Does anyone have the link to Ashely's audio book of Moby Dick?
Cause that's apparently a thing, and it'd make my morning commutes amazing.
>Jack Black and Herman Melville are her ideal men
You may not like it but this is what peak performance looks like
Not him but the only thing that really triggers me is how shit the map is it's fuckin trash unsounded fuels my map boner more
elaborate
The map of the world in ASoIF is really bad. Really, really bad.
this only raises additional questions
It's a fucking rectangle and is just Ireland stapled to the UK. Look at how fucking brick like it is because it was made for a book and thus is so constrained to the size of a page
While personally I feel there are way too many straight lines on Kasslyne as a whole the continent has character
We have no idea how accurate, or poorly made, that map is, however. Historically, maps were complete and utter ASS up until satellite came along.
The writing in game of thrones has definitely gotten weaker over time, but I still think its entertaining even if characters fast travel at the speed of plot.
It's not that the characters are literally too far apart on the map. It's that all the different storylines are a spaghetti mess that have no way of intersecting again without most of them ending in a wet fart.
>maps were complete and utter ASS up until satellite came along.
Actually by the age of discovery they were pretty good
It's also worth appreciating the extra detail/emphasis they put on some of the major water ways. Like the main entrances into the heart of Africa, the Amazons, and China.
The pretty version at the start of this chapter was nice. I want to know where all the major cities are.
I think it can be done well but it's a problem he himself caused by his writing style. He constantly goes on about the gardener method of writing where you discover things as you go but with some as dense and intricate as A Song of Ice and Fire, it just doesn't seem like a tenable way to work.
Ooh, definitely some shrinkage going on for Florida there.
The world one is way worse.
It was in the pool!
The interior border lines still look a bit too straight but still it's nice I'll just chalk up the straightness to the Khert
Someone should send Jack Black the comic and tell him it was done by a woman who considers him the ideal man.
Some of the "bad" maps are only bad because they are exaggerating a feature on purpose. Like a map that looks really jagged isn't because they think thats the actually shape but because they want to call into attention where safe areas are at for ships. Like this is a 16th century Ottoman map and outside of the areas they had little contact with it is very accurate like the crater shape on Ireland is them noting a major port so the exaggerated sizes of bays and coves are useful information that ship people want, and makes it visible to the human eye
I wonder what the story is behind that big hole on the border between Alderode and Cresce.
I bet some kind of "nuke"
It's highly likely to be a causal relationship. I'd venture to get cross caste romances have a long and storied history in India. Or any sort of socially transgressive romantic relationship.
The constant fighting along the border has effectively PERMANENTLY set the Khert into chaos. It's like the Eye of Terror in 40K there, nothing works right, everything is deadly. I don't think pymary can be used without it wiping you out as well so basically constant 100+1 on the Mogul Number. I imagine the only safe way over is using Vliegeng to fly above the Khert boundary
I had no fucking idea what I was looking at until I realized the yellow color was landmass and the brown ocean
>the only safe way over is using Vliegeng to fly above the Khert boundary
Vliegeng fly by using their appendages to hook onto and glide along khert lines, kind of like a suspended rollercoaster. That wouldn't work.
Skirt the boundary then I suppose. Khert gets weaker higher up you get so perhaps once you gain some altitude you can fly over on a few lines
It's an old map overlayed onto a modern map, not much difficult to understand there
She's a menace
Though I'd prefer her riding Quigley into an early grave
that face reminds me of the black sister from "The Promised Neverland"
She was fucking great. Her voice was so good too.
Honestly, that entire show was a huge darkhorse for last season.
hell yeah, that ending? fuckin brilliant
>cunnies
spoken like a true child lover
Crecians's are filthy commies, they don't care who or what you fuck so long as you die for the state.
At least in Alderode and Sharteshane they but the boot to childlovers.
That spear confuses me
What's with those two stubs on either side of the head?
Legit criticism: you can't go back a verse or two once the song starts. If you want to go back and reread something you may have missed, you have to restart the song all the way from the beginning like some kinda shitty vidya gaem cutscene.
Other than that, I gotta say the website animations have gotten much better over the years. I did kinda expect a few more animated panels and larger spill-over panels for this many specially formatted scenes. But like others have mentioned, this kind of stuff is already over-delivering for a webcomic
I think Ashly likes to just rule-of-cool with a bit of real world inspiration for her weapon design. That one in particular kinda seems like a pole-axe/spear hybrid with a bit of Maori-esqe style. I can totally imagine that as a spiked 2 handed slashing weapon, hence why Ruffles is holding it like a bow staff, not a spear.
Ceremonial weapon, probably.
>Historically, maps were complete and utter ASS up until satellite came along.
Not true, by the way. Mapping techniques got really, really good by the 19th century.
>Historically, maps were complete and utter ASS up until satellite came along.
Pythagoras walked down the street with a few measuring devices, and calculated the exact circumference of the entire world within a .1% margin of error. you are a fucking idiot.
This
But also bear in mind that maps were less about fidelity and more about 'IMPORTANT SHIT HEREABOUTS' with the stuff in between just so much terra nullius until, as you said, the 19th century where the blank spaces on the map started getting filled in.
damn dude really? like unironically that's badass
well, I dont know the exact story about how he did it, but yeah, Pythagoras calculated the exact circumference of the world using only trigonometry. Thats why he's one of the OG math gods
I thought it was some nigga in Alexandria or something
Couldn't a Sharteshanian just take a ship to Alderode with a dozen of whores in the hold, knock them up, and get randomly assigned caste children until he has the full collection?
He'd more than likely wake up with an Aseptick yanking the solidity from his asshole
You might be right, i dunno. But we can both agree it was some fag from greco-roman time, and it was a god like feat of maths
Khert doesn't go far out to sea. Dammakhert might have even less range
>Additionally, he may have accurately calculated the distance from the Earth to the Sun
choke on a dick and die mad about it, techfags
Its this sort of stuff that really just leaves me with a sense of awe at what we can do when we put our minds to something.
A man can stand at the bottom of two different wells, look up at the sun, and tell us how big the earth is.
With a series of giant ass, vacuum facilities scattered across the continents and across the oceans, we can detect gravitational waves emitted from black-holes circling each other and colliding from light years away.
Fuck, I've been having a hell of a time with final finals, but this sorta shit just made me so excited to be a physics major.
Could be an artistic take on barbs, meant to keep the spear stuck in once you've stabbed somebody.
>we can detect gravitational waves emitted from black-holes circling each other and colliding from light years away.
I feel that's not really doing it justice. They're being detected from 130,000,000 light years away. Our galaxy is "only" 105,700 light years across. It's fucking ridiculous.
Oh damn. Rereading Unsounded. Duane definitely didn't take this as Sette referring to Cara.
shit, they're about to have a bunch of fucking constructs ambush them all I bet. Little else is big enough to shoot down vliegeng and make Plats really feel it
If you ever feel like shit is too big to wrap yourr head around, just remember: every fucking formula, equation, etc is the result of raw human thinking and scientific processes. we don't need computers to figure any of this shit out, they just make the process faster by automating shit, and making it easier to colab
>she's actually pretty verbose
That's Duane rubbing off on her, which is adorable
The continent is literally made of corpses, we're not talking your standard geography here
Sette has the will but lacks the vocabulary. So she makes up a lot of it on her own to get her point across. "Down on your knees in beggitude" is still one of the best lines in the entire story.
Sette's actually fairly intelligent. That whole "Street Smarts" kind of wise. High Wisdom, Low Intelligence stats and all that. It's just she's missed out on the proper schooling and education that would allow her to express herself in more polite, constructive ways, and has long passed the point where that's a thing she wants to work towards.
I agree on ASoIaF map being bad. It looks like it was made to fit a rectangle page. Same for Essos' map
Nah, mate. the Shart dialect is all about abusing words to their fullest extent, and forcing them to your will. they all seem to have a natural talent for wordplay and double speak, especially when it comes to contracts/business.
It's a weird mishmash of smart-people talk, and idiot-people talk
Unsounded. A goddamn good comic.
>It's from 2012 or so.
Jesus christ, this level of lore after 7 years?
That's what having your story and world planned out looks like. Gunnerkrigg Court is also surprisingly on point with this shit too, despite seeming mostly like kind of a weird off the cuff sort of story. One of the earliest chapters had a weird statement about the MC's mother than was only explained nearly a decade or so latter. Now Gunnerkrigg Court is not the same kind of story or world building lore as Unsounded, but it becomes clear reading both long term the writers have some level of understanding of the shape of the story as a whole and this is reflected in the work itself as it goes on.
Note in both cases the specifics of how the story plays out page to page, chapter to chapter no doubt change over time. Even with Unsounded we know sometimes chapters grow larger than Cope originally thought they would. And it's always good to be flexible with your story. But there's a happy medium between having a plan and a set background and being able to adjust your story as needed. There's a reason Cope has said all of this lore shit doesn't matter until it's actually in the story itself for readers to see play out. Not just because not needing to read an appendix is good for story cohesion, but also because it leaves you room to mess around with the specifics or even larger aspects as needed.
The good ol' calling moot a newfag, never gets old
>The Crescian Queen is the current one's Grandma
How long ago is this taking place? 10-20 years?
It says right there "a few decades later".
>"They did not long resist this implicit invitation. Only a few decades later..."
I'm not sure how heavily I should be weighting "clearly 'a few decades' isn't actually a short time but long enough that the events are probably unrelated" versus "for coppers, that actually might not be long at all."
Reading this again, the Uneasy Mines is a great fucking fantasy name. I love Cope's writing so much I hate it.
No, no, I mean how long ago was Duane in Avelpit being a soldier? How much time has gone by in between
>singing songs about babes with little bro
and
>telling an ancient lizard and some kids about singing songs about babes with little bro
What I'm getting at is how utterly fucking weird it must be to interact with a copper at all. Roger Foi-Hellick was bumping arms with the current queen, and he goes and marries her fucking grand daughter. Yeah, it's part of a deeper scheme, but still. Imagine the utter stability Alderode is capable of compared to... well, the rest of Kasslyne. A particularly long-lived Copper has seen the rise of the entire Sonorie dynasty up until the present day in the comic. If Britain were run by Coppers, the men who were in charge of the British Empire at the time of the American revolution would be dying around the same time our great grand children would be implying we'll ever breed.
This is fourteen or fifteen (I don't remember exactly which) years before the present.
yeah but why did the corpses make such a shape
Just imagine
