The best answer to that question is not to find out.”

“What’s made of stone, filled with smoke, and bleeds fire?
The best answer to that question is not to find out.”
Uyyid, Goblin Slum Lord
When angels have progressed to beating one another with furniture, you can usually assume the fight proper is over. Similar dynamic to if a soldier drops his spear and rolls up his sleeves. The beatings may not be over, but the fight almost certainly is
PREACH, SISTER! METATRON LIVES! CAN I GET AN AMEN!?
I think White Chain is trying to me masculine here. “Sons of the White Flame” and such. “He” would get to you next for that sister comment.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMEN
…but Mammon will live forever
The bearer of the Burning Wheel has a disciple, it would seem.
A table of that size
mirrors a wheel of eyes
represents a wheel of lies
WOE BE HE THAT MISTAKES THE DINER FOR THE TABLE.
That’s 53 Convenient Access To The Restrooms Please dishing it out to the wicked. No mortal table could pancake a rogue angel.
Hmph- careful sibling White Chain, you appear to be sprouting Thorns. And possibly venting too much of the Flame Immortal to be safe for any nearby mortal lifeforms.
That’s a nice petal you have there…
It would be a shame if something bad happens to it
On a side note though,
NO, CHAINEY, NOOOOO
Do not offend the chair leg of truth. It is wise and terrible.
This hand of mind is glowing….blue?
I know this of the rogue angels; they are as dangerous as they are garish.
And so the apprentice becomes the master.
Nice to see White Chains reaffirming her decision not to become a Thorn Knight.
Fingering petal knights normally has a different outcome.
well…that last panel looks oddly familiar…
METATRON LIVES
Anyone else having flashbacks to here?:

You know, what with screaming METATRON LIVES and beating poor little petal knights to death with wheel-shaped objects. White Chain is well on her way to becoming a Thorn, it seems.
Uncomfortable parallel.
Good f*cking dammit, 82WC really got themselves stockholmed through and through, didn’t they? Man, I hate it when that happens to a character I like :c
No one is as zealous as the newly converted.
Word.
Hmm… Something tells me that even if White Chain stops now, 33 Unrepentant will soon become 34 Unrepentant, once it’s higher ups find out what went down at the tea parlor.
82 White Chain is Done With Your Shit.
Graffin says it’s a full time job
I say it’s a mirror
Look at yourself, but see another’s stance
Get this Angel a flaming wheel.
Oooooohhh… Probably shouldn’t have said that Chains. That might have been a little too much.
I bet he wishes he could table the issue for now.
Imma call them Judy
Waiting for Niave to talk some sense into White Chain thick stone head.
Wait, there are goblins in this?
Also, nobody was done a better ” lives!” shout than Kane in Tiberian Sun. Fite me.
The word of Thorns is easily ignored. If one walks down that path, they have naught to fear, for stepping of is as easy as crushing a tea cup.
Not seeing the love or any of the sorrow.
But there’s definitely a lot of anger.
Holy shit, White Chain. They’ve surrendered. I think you can stop beating them up now.
I think “it” is a more appropriate gender-neutral pronoun for the angel than “they”
When one has lost its way usually a push in the right direction is needed. Or in some cases, a violent smack down
This hand of hers is burning red.
It’s loud roar tells her to grasp victory.
White Chain is a Thorn Angel already.
6 Juggernaut would be proud!
Not necessarily. “Metatron Lives(!)” is an objective fact, stated for the record. It doesn’t mean submission to the ideology of the Thorns is what is happening here.
Methinks you are looking a lot like our mutual acquaintance, Juggernaut Star right now, White Chain. Have his words shaken you more than you would care to admit?
So those empty palms burned with an awesome power after all…
Oh, blah-blah-blah. White Chain is such a spirited thing. Unbecoming, really. So, Metatron lives. And what? He will simply talk the Gods of the Seven-Part World to death?
Please.
Reach heaven through indolent violence and thoughtless thought.
His words gave them power, his words can take them away
Dear Abbadon, what’s the grudge you hold against all forms of furniture?
Letting your emotions get the better of you, 82 White Chain Born in Emptiness Returns to Subdue Evil. Best get a hold of your temper, else you will lose your path just as surely as 33 Judicious Rains Sear the Unrepentant.
A life of rage is as deviant from the Law as a life of hedonistic pleasure. The Law is dispassionate, objective, and consistent. A thousand laws have been thrown to the ground and burned in acts of burning, blind fury, and a thousand worse, falser laws built in their place. Do not contribute to the folly of mortals by emulating them in this respect.
Shouldn’t the “why won’t you leave me alone ?” bubble point to 33 Judicious Rain instead of 82 White Chains ?
Sure looks that way.
Well good grief, shout it from the rooftops why don’t you?
METATRON LIVES!
YS ATUN VRAMA PRESH!
You are a deviant, brother, but you would make a hot and piercing Thorn.
METATRON LIVES.
HOW INDEED, SISTER?
That poor table. It takes the cosmic place of the wheel, and shatters under that impossible weight.
one of the few things to burn hotter than fire is rage, true, pure rage.
Police brutality is a universal constant I see?
OM NOM NOM
Break him on The Wheel!
Death to the Sinners!
Glory to the Law!
The Wheel breaks the Butterfly. 33 Judicious Rains kinda resembles a butterfly with the bright colors and 6 limbs.
See the ravages of secrets better left unrevealed. How corrosive, how like a cancer it spreads. The greatest misfortune for those who seek truth is to finally find it.
When a wheel cannot be found, a circular table will do.
Inch by inch the White Chain pulls at the Juggernaut. Two sides of the same coin? Or perhaps their paths are more convergent.
Reach heaven though violence.
They are already more alike than either realizes.
GIANT BABY LIVES!
The lawman’s gone and learned bar brawlin’. I’m a fan.
just a
finger
I feel like White Chain is working through some stuff right now.
Life has many doors, Chain-boy… Is this one yours to shut, or is there another door to open?
METATRON LIVES
When I first saw those two nonvocal fighting panels, I would’ve sworn White Chain had ripped that guy’s head off, and then shoved it back on so it could be punched some more.
Sometimes One must beat One unto Dust.
Metatron would be better off dead than as a mostly insane mostly dead mostly wise abomination that he is
That sounds like a very intelligent goblin slum lord., just sayin.
Goblin slum lords don’t live long enough to have their words written down by being stupid.
Perhaps a claim best not shouted at the peak of one’s voice. Words have a curious and magnetic power, and invoking the name of the First will undoubtedly have consequences.
We see the ripples of causality. We see the waves caused by the smallest events. Further observation is required to see upon which shores these tides will land.
I wonder what Nyave thinks of all this.
Hopefully she has spent her time finding cover rather than thinking.
I suspect White Chain moves only to intimidate;
His grasp of the wheel seems meant for show;
But violence is inevitable.
A wise man once said that the purpose of a combo attack is to finish the opponent: Each strike must be delivered with the intent to kill.
I think there is a spelling error.
“It was just damn shakedown” misses an ‘a’ “It was just a damn shakedown”
White Chain hitting that angel with a table is like me attacking people with a sheet of notebook paper.
It is not well even to hint of the power of notebook paper. It is among the most terrible of the Arts.
This hand of mine is burning red, its loud roar tells me to grasp victory, ERUPTING BURNING FINGER!
Thus a new style is born
‘Teacup flips the Table’
Soon, my Brother will join me in limbo awaiting the next cycle.
Eventually, my Sister will face atonement for her rage.
“Burning finger”. So much less of a mouthful than “empty palm purges the impure”. Bit more accurate, too, ‘cept there were TWO.
I had hoped to have another companion in my fight against the thorns…Damn
Empty Palms being “outdated” probably assumes that the user isn’t capable of performing all 49 of them. Burning Finger seems to be one of the more advanced techniques, and WC knowing it means this fight’s over.
Yisun’s Empty Palm is apparently the ultimate technique, although WC probably can’t do it. I bet 2 Michael can.
