And so, the true genius of Mammon’s defenses reveals itself.
Only one like Yabalchoath could pass the Door without destroying her heisting-crew.
But to pass that door without destruction is to condemn your band of criminals to be the lowest of the low, the most backstabbing and vindictive, blackened souls who will murder one another for no reason beyond their own entertainment.
At this point, I would assume that the red devil in question is simply attempting to guarantee that he can place himself in a greater position of power within the group by the end of the journey.
“She’s the sort that wouldn’t so much mind dying herself if she knew that the chap who killed her was going to be burned, or buried, or drowned five minutes later.”
Yes, but it could be a series of convoluted coincidences. The old demon was the team’s demolition expert, so he was supposed to be carrying all that explosive material. Then, guy gets sliced to bits, explosives spill out, lamp-jar breaks, firebugs start flitting about and lighting stuff up. It just might all be a chain of unfortunate accidents -but I doubt it.
Clio has four horns now? One has to wonder where they will be sprouting next. And will they get long, and spirally around the bases like a gemsbok?
And will the penitent devils plus barista pass? Should be easy now that they can see the lowest blade, and can slide under it. Any inconvenient explosives can be just pushed over the edge.
The only real problem is that everyone will inevitably end up covered in green devil guts. This will have a terrible effect on Oscar’s awesome pants.
You’re right. I thought she only had two back then, and had just sprouted an extra pair, but she’s had all four since the episode you mention.
I’m still worried about Oscar’s awesome pants though. If it becomes necessary to murder him, which is looking ever more likely, I do hope the pants are retrieved safely and given a good home.
She’s had them since “Yes, this is it. The last thing I remember” – when she held Mammon’s coin. Incidentally, they’re the same horns she had when she was Yabalchoath.
Oscar is an idiot. At this point I think AL-YIS-UN, Cio, and Princess will be the only ones to make it out.
AL-YIS-UN because she’s basically god. Cio and Princess? They’re former Ebon devils who have a good idea of how far AL-YIS-UN can go when she doesn’t hold back. Both are aware that she could have left everyone behind by teleporting to the exit but didn’t.
The grenades in panel 3 seem to be bouncing off handholds. It would be incredibly freaky to climb down a sheer face where the handholds are not only invisible, but probably trapped. AND to do it under time pressure too.
Actually, rather than Oscar being stupid about things (he is impulsive, though), I’m starting to think that they brought all the other people along not only for their skills, but to sacrifice to the traps.
I believe that is one of the most significant information for me.
And i am satisfied reading your article. However should remark on few basic issues, The web site style is
great, the articles is in point of fact nice : D. Just right process,

Hello would you mind stating which blog platform you’re
using? I’m going to start my own blog soon but I’m having a tough time
deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most
blogs and I’m looking for something unique. P.S My apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!
All the contents you mentioned in post is too good and can be very useful. I will keep it in mind, thanks for sharing the information keep updating, looking forward for more posts.Thanks

Whether proactively or posthumously.
Honestly, I’m starting to just think that Oscar is either dumb, or took the Dragon’s schilling and is sabotaging the op.
At this point, I would assume that the red devil in question is simply attempting to guarantee that he can place himself in a greater position of power within the group by the end of the journey.
Makes sense. You have to be as ruthless as Mammon to get to the vault, willing to do the things he did to prove your value.
Should have pushed the other guy
No way! 1-11 was the trap disarmer. And how well did he disarm that trap?
SO WELL.
GG 1-11.
Well done, Boris.
MAYBE THAT WAS THE WORST PERSON TO THROW UNDER THE BUS JUST A THOUGHT
Devils are not known for cleverness. At least not red devils. Impulsive simple creatures.
I want to think that Old Demon Guy had this prepared specifically as a revengency plan should the others backstab him like they just did.
Revengency is a very expressive word that I had no idea I was living without until this exact moment. Thank you!
You’re welcome!
Revenge contingency.
I approve. *Toast*
“She’s the sort that wouldn’t so much mind dying herself if she knew that the chap who killed her was going to be burned, or buried, or drowned five minutes later.”
Just so!
I doubt that you need to think it. Those explosives are entirely from 1-11’s bag.
Yes, but it could be a series of convoluted coincidences. The old demon was the team’s demolition expert, so he was supposed to be carrying all that explosive material. Then, guy gets sliced to bits, explosives spill out, lamp-jar breaks, firebugs start flitting about and lighting stuff up. It just might all be a chain of unfortunate accidents -but I doubt it.
1-11 is the “old demon guy.”
Goddamit Oscar.

Alas, poor pants.
I had to check back, but she has had those since touching the piece of silver.
Dun dun DUNNN
You’re right. I thought she only had two back then, and had just sprouted an extra pair, but she’s had all four since the episode you mention.

It was the last thing she remembered… but perhaps it remembered her too.
Literal firefly!
Ugh timed missions are the woooorst
OSCAR YOU FUCKWIT
KARMA, BITCH
Abbadon, you NEED to fix the url problems here. They are messed up beyond belief at this point.
Don’t wear it out.
Remember It’s an infinite vault
Where time and space can somersault
I don’t think it’s Abaddon’s fault
Flutter, Flutter
Die and sputter
Little flame oh so dark
Fade and leave an ashen mark
i’m noticing some “growths” on your face Cio… better get those looked at
They started growing when she touched the piece of silver *eyebrow wiggle*
Those growths are beads of sweat, methinks.
She’s had them since “Yes, this is it. The last thing I remember” – when she held Mammon’s coin. Incidentally, they’re the same horns she had when she was Yabalchoath.
Surely no connection there.
*slow claps*
Nice going, jackass.
It looks like Cio is struggling to contain her Ebon.
Fool of a took!
A grenade is never late, nor is it early.
It explodes precisely when it means to.
let me tell you about the bombs and the bees, my child…
Lol, watch it be like the Homestuck fantrolls: the fan submitted characters aaaaaall die.
(Also Oscar, probably)
I think after Suuz it was pretty much confirmed that heist crew isn’t making it out.
Her horns! I thought I was mistaken the last page, but this confirms it! When will she sprout?
“How much more convoluted can this get, I wonder?”
You mean like Maya and a Priest of the Count in a fight to the death breaking through an adjoining wall? I don’t know. I’ll bet you do…
Those priceless emotion on Oscar and Ally’s faces XD
I was wondering what had happened to the fireflies.
I also had failed to notice that 1-11 carried explosives with him, and even if I had, I would have not guessed it would be that many.
Such exciting developments!
Thorns spring up from the skull without buffering
Begging for mercy meets tedious muttering
Don’t cry please, it’s a waste of good suffering
*clap clap clap*
As we say in the guild: short on foresight, long on regret.
I have the perfect song for this. “Time bomb” by Two Steps from Hell. https://youtu.be/46o6gEYJDxo
Explosives have that attitude of not caring for friend or foe
I should appropriate this contingency for my D&D character. Backstabbers deserve this much.
And now the invisible death trap hallway has grenades bouncing around it. Sigh… Oscar if you live thru this we really need to talk.
Uh-oh, Allison, Oscars now got 2 kills to your 1. Better pick up the pace.
She could simplify that contest greatly by killing Oscar. It looks like doing so would be a boon to the team, too.
Allison has kills on hostile mobs. If anything, Oscar’s teamkilling gives him a negative score.
Oscar is an idiot. At this point I think AL-YIS-UN, Cio, and Princess will be the only ones to make it out.
AL-YIS-UN because she’s basically god. Cio and Princess? They’re former Ebon devils who have a good idea of how far AL-YIS-UN can go when she doesn’t hold back. Both are aware that she could have left everyone behind by teleporting to the exit but didn’t.
It looks like the explosives in panel 3 are bouncing off invisible handholds. May be tough going, especially if some of the handholds are trapped.
Well spotted. I’d missed that, but it sure looks like ladder rungs or something.
First horns, now fur. Your Blue is rusting over.
The grenades in panel 3 seem to be bouncing off handholds. It would be incredibly freaky to climb down a sheer face where the handholds are not only invisible, but probably trapped. AND to do it under time pressure too.
If you’re going to throw people carrying loads of high explosive under the bus, make sure you do it from a safe distance.
Is Cio going straight from Blue to Ebon?
It appears that little miss Cio is getting taller, as well as more voluptuous.
Is her becoming a red devil?
In a world that offers you a Bluetooth toothbrush, a guy loaded down with grenades is someone we shoulda known more about.
Dang Cio you sure grew like… two feet taller.
Actually, rather than Oscar being stupid about things (he is impulsive, though), I’m starting to think that they brought all the other people along not only for their skills, but to sacrifice to the traps.
Team members are getting squashed like fireflies!
You ought to be a part of a contest for one
of the greatest sites on the net. I am going to highly recommend this web site!
I believe that is one of the most significant information for me.
And i am satisfied reading your article. However should remark on few basic issues, The web site style is
