King of Swords 10-151
Chapter: 10
“I once heard a fellow refer to the Trigram Mantra as little better than an ideal set of rules for drinking hard liquor. In many circumstances I’m actually inclined to agree with him.”
-Musko Reeve

clears up Reality
and Dream alike.”

Zen monk (1887-1926)
Jisei / death poem,
“Thirty years and more
I worked to nullify myself.
Now I leap the leap of death.
The ground churns up
The skies spin round.”
If you could see your way to lending me sixpence.
I could at least buy a newspaper.
That’s not much to ask anyone.
So is Soloman causing the storm?
I just think he’s just no longer stopping it.
Astute observation. And him no longer stopping the storm means his control weakens.
Perhaps, if he seeks to use Ki Rata in this state, he too should repeat the Trigram Mantra to himself.
pretty sure Zoss would get a laugh out of solomon’s view on strength.
Well, considering how much older Zoss is, and the blunders he’s made in his time, a bit of modesty might be in order. After all, the whole mess with the Keys is his fault.
i wonder if allison is doing enough to “cast aside her sword.”
like, can her key perhaps be shared?
LO MICHAEL GATHERS OUR HOST. THE END OF THIS ERA APPROACHES.
It’s about to be raining angels.
Hallelujah, it’s raining angels.
Run, little sparrows!
Fly little Starling, fly, fly! said Dr. Lecter.
So I checked this out because the art in Lancer was really heckin’ neat, and I just blasted through the entire series in less than 24 hours. And I must say, HOT DAMN, THIS IS THE GOOD SHIT! I now take my place among the masses as we wait day by day in agony for new updates.
Welcome on board, fellow traveler.
We wait, yes, but we use the time well on this board dissecting the situation and straining to predict the future.
And we craft poetry.
New flesh allus welcome. Hungry us.
Yon lore o th’ Concordance’ll keep tha busy tweentimes, not least findin it all.
The cock walks, the phantom itch,
The clock burns, Jeff/Marion switch.
Fill your hand, you son of a bitch.
“I’ll congratulate you on making me use 1% of my strength”
Oh my, I almost hear the raindrops on the fifth frame. Gorgeous depiction, as always.
Fool and Tyrant! The Dave of Salami believes that True Strength can be found by following another’s law. Only one’s own convictions can guide one to True Strength; even to hold sacred the convictions of one’s past is to become a Prisoner.
Solomon is losing it. He lost emptiness millennia ago. He lost wisdom during this comic. Now he’s losing restraint.
The storm is both visual metaphor and evidence of what happens when the God Emperor loses focus. Rayuba’s perfect, unnatural weather is breaking down. Perhaps the suns will fall. Solomon’s key-power is withdrawn from running the world and given over to anger.
He will destroy White Chain: she knows this and invites it. He will destroy all his oligarchs and soldiers who are gathered round the ring to see his “victory”: Ki-rata without constraint will erase them all. He will destroy his self-image and his reputation: no pretence of “protecting the people” survives this selfishness and abandon. He will destroy peace, and balance, and his very purpose.
Solomon does not look provoked or goaded to me, though many comments suggest he is about to make a huge mistake or explode or suchlike. I feel what is important here is all about White Chain’s actions, and much less to do with Dave’s. Vigilant Gaze seems to think so too.
Salami Dave’s weakness is birds, that’s why he has had them locked out of the dome. Chains needs to use her wings.
“Don’t you see? Giving up and doing what I want is true strenght, freedom and really cool. Only real winners give up.”
Boy, Solomon just does not want to have this fight for some reason.
The ones who see the truth will deliver the spark that will burn all.
Transcend through faith in the god called I instead of the whims of a tyrant god.

Delicious Russian spam! You can eat it with egg; egg and bacon; egg, bacon and sausage; bacon and sausage; egg, bacon and egg; baked beans; or Lobster thermidor aux crevettes with a mornay sauce garnished with truffle pâté, brandy and with a fried egg on top.
Stare in tha mirror and sees th’ Grand Enemy tha needs ta destroy.
Should I feel bad cause I am becoming somewhat GAR for Solomon ?
It’s been almost a month since we last saw them on KoS p.144, and they weren’t extremely visible then. We’ve been subjected to close-focus against a field of beautiful blue and they’ve been out of the picture, but looking at panels 2 and 5…
Salmagundi has entire ARMIES clustered around his precious little faux-duel with this angel, banners displayed. They do not face the crowds to show their banners on parade. They face inward, towards the hostile.
This is not the act of a being of confidence. He must prove himself to his own generals.
Perhaps he will not be the one to inspire them, this year.
Alison has passed Zoss’s ‘terrible fire’ to White Chain. Perhaps White Chain will pass it on to those watching.
I dislike saying it against the current backdrop, because I don’t want to dilute events in our own world, but no more suitable words come to mind…
The revolution WILL be televised.
Well, the evenings are quite long at this time of the year.
Time to get yeeted White chain
Many say that there is a lack of men with honor. Perhaps this is because such men are oft dfeated more easily by those who lack such. but perhaps it is because we mistake honor and trust. Indeed many a pety criminal still holds a code of morals and is honorable enough to stick to them. But if honor means trust in the ears of the many then it is no wonder so few men of honor are known. For a man who trust his enemies is undoubtedly a fool.
I like to imagine the birds aren’t atop the roof, they’re just really big.
Why doesn’t Allison just use the birds to throw Solomon in the fires of Mordor?
Lots of people are standing around watching 2 others fight, someone is powering up with lightning, and our hero has lost their shirt. According to the DBZ scale, things have definitely gotten serious, now!
We’ve only got three more seasons before Namek explodes!
“…moments later, Solomon stopped time, took off his bling, and gently, but firmly, inserted White Chain’s head into her own derrière…”
I see that Solomon is a truly devoted supporter of his own Bureaucracy, a tireless advocate of Reason, and an immovable bulwark against the forces of Violence and Chaos. His one true goal, which he keeps close to his heart, is but to serve the Bureaucracy and allow it to realize his final Utopia where the needs of all are met and the evil are easily and constantly rehabilitated.
In short, he is an exceptionally poor bureaucrat. I hope White Chain kicks the ass of this disgrace to my profession.
