Seeker of Thrones 11-152
Chapter: 11
5. Violence is circular. Perception is not circular and lacks flawlessness- therefore, rejoice in imperfect things, for their rareness is not lacking!
6. Love of self is the true exercise of the God called I.
7. Only an idiot cannot place his absolute certainty in paradoxes. The divine suicide is a perfect paradox. A man cannot exist without paradox – that is the full of it.
-Psalms, Book I (ROYALTY)
White Chain is skilled in the ancient art of “I was standing here the whole time”
Drax the Destroyer is also very skilled at that.
She has mastered the ability, of standing so incredibly still that she becomes invisible to the eye.
I love the eyes in White Chain’s hair, reminds me of a peacock tail <3
Allison: It’s kind of like here, except instead of spending all our time trying to kill everyone else, we spend all of our time trying to murder eachother.
Shits wack back there too
White Chain must be great at parties
Little known fact about Pree White Chain’s previous incarnations:
Slain by notorious fish stealer and food rapist Josep the Trout
Once killed a man with his own severed head
Through fell sorcery, their armor was once transmogrified into trashy romance novels(though was later restored to its ashen state).
Used to be a luxury rickshaw designer
Prior to the current incarnation as never once owned a any sort of hat aside from the helmet of their armor
Once swore eternal vengeance on the concept of lettuce, though revoked it later after a tragic and heartfelt romance with a sapient romaine
Comments like these are why I keep a trained eye on the Discussion section.
wHite cHain owns a Hat you say?? I see!! I see!!
For someone made out of stone, White Chain is quite the ninja.
The softest of stones.
I have not once in my entire life heard a mountain.
Challenge! Make up random nonsense for White Chain’s undoubtedly convoluted backstory. Go!
she had a staring contest with an eyeless angel and won
awwww this is actualy really sweet to see them actualy getting together finally.
Allison: Well, my country elected an orange dunderhead that I would sell to Jagganoth for one corn chip, so there’s that.
Given that this comic started before 2016, it’s not likely Allison would know about that. Her timeline hasn’t caught up to that yet.
Depending on how the multiversal war plays out, it might not even happen. We can only hope…
Maybe if someone tells her what happens in 2016, that might just be the push she needs to achieve royalty.
Hrmm… She left before that happened. Probably doesn’t know anything about it. Best to just leave stuff like that unsaid. Reckon?
Yes, hopefully he died horribly and slowly in a car crash. We can only hope.
Yep, the country should have elected the syphilitic old woman instead. Oh well.
“Eventually this comic is going to devolve into just panels of Cio making faces”
-Abbadon
… paraphrased. (Also thank you for your hard work and the comment moderation Abbadon!)
Looks like my ship just sank.
The S.S. AlliCio will be missed.
For those of you who forgot what question Alice is answering in panel 3, it was basically, “Do you want to fuck later?”
So, yeah. She’d like that.
Did it tho?
Never interrupt an angel. It is, surely, against the Law.
The party is having some friendly banter? NOW THIS is the real fanservice.
the intimacy of angels and demons
Once heard from a bardic scholar that devils practice love of self through all their facial expressions.
This is the best thing ever.
Also, vanishing glasses on panel 5!
A collection of writings would be great – the Psalms, the Spasms, etc.
I love how White Chain just low key expects them to ask about her.
That guy whose character backstory is 3 pages long…
…I was that guy.
An angel on one shoulder, a devil on the other.
“…he will be flanked by a black and white flame…”
Hrmm… Good eye! Today you win the Internetz!
Really puts the last panel in perspective when you look at it that way, LOL!
“Heeeeeeeyyy Allison…”
She will be flanked by a white and a black flame.
AHHH the glasses! AHHH the soup!
Cio’s poor soup!
I love that White Chain closes all of her eyes when telling her life story, that’s adorable.
GOD DAMN IT, CIO! I WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT HOW AN ANGEL IS CREATED!
I believe we already had a page description lore dump that explained how angels came to be. Which, presumably, is White Chain’s origin, since I don’t think the forge god made angels in more than one batch.
Kos hand forged them from the Cold White Flame, which he took from the Forehead of UN.
When he had engraved the Old Law into their very souls, he quenched their molten forms in the Ashes of Oblivion, which hardened into their battle shells.
These were not like the battle shells you see angels wearing these days, which are forged by mortals from fragments of the original. These were the original Prime Angels, who were destroyed by Zoss.
Since then she was killed an additional 80 times, each time banished for an uncountable eon, to meditate in the void, before returning to a new, crudely man-made shell. 80, unfathomably long lifetimes of enforcing the Old Law our Multiplicity laid out for them, nigh heedless of the fact that these laws existed to protect tyrants, now long dead.
Slowly the various angels developed different ideas about what laws to enforce and how. Some became enforcers to the guilds or the Black Emperors, while others pledged to defend the weak, and others decided to keep the old ways, and still others just said, “Fuck it. I’m’a go party.”
These evolved into the Angelic Orders, who vie for control over the concordance of angels. Though, in secret, many of the orders’ leaders are now sworn to serve METATRON ONE, the last of the Prime Angels. Meaning these rival factions are merely unwitting catspaws to the same dark power.
Then she met Alice. The End.
I bet white chains spent a significant time of her life as a tree.
Like Jun, from Tomo Chan.
It’s where she got her haircut from.
