Is there hope here? When Yabalchoath was revived it was through the remaking of her mask…placed on a different black flame. The result was shaped like her and carried an echo of who she was, but was not her. A mask helps a devil take form, but the mask is not the truth of a devil.
This is a black flame, unmasked, seeking out Alice. Is it our beloved Cio defying her impermenant nature to return? If an unchanging angel can discard her shell and reforge herself into something new, could a formless devil cast aside her mask and return herself into something old?
… many times have we been here, Allison? How many times have you woken up, broken, in a foreign bed? The bed won’t always be there, Allison. It’s dark and cold, and the lake is silent. Your friends have gone home. Nobody is there anymore.
You now have 35 years to get killed time but also to lego your gf back and also smash the wheel, stop Jag and his armies and vampire guy and save the universe.
DAMN MATE.
White Chain. Angel, defender of the peoople, bearer of a word of power, passed out face first on the floor.
Also I am not convinced that is not somebody they picked up last night on the way and just forgot about.
What the FUCK is THAT?!?!
I think that it is the current demonic form of Cio Cioelle

Or does Alison simply inhabit a cruel dream.
Corporeal Angels *Really* cannot handle their fire-water.
Looks similar to the forged ash armor of angels. If so, all that remains is for Alison to ascend her form into pure elemental chaos.

… many times have we been here, Allison? How many times have you woken up, broken, in a foreign bed? The bed won’t always be there, Allison. It’s dark and cold, and the lake is silent. Your friends have gone home. Nobody is there anymore.
You literally have WC there as a friend lying nearby bro.
And the grey being is Cio, I will bet my fifth testicle!
My dear, if you could give me a cup of tea to clear my muddle of a head I should better understand your affairs.
I felt this. I really felt this

I think Maya has dibs on the vampire guy, but yeah to all the rest.
Huh! Is that the same room as in the first panel of the first page of the second chapter?
What?
(Goes to check)
Oohh… you’ve got a good memory. This is *exactly* that room.
oh my god, it is. allison is passed out on the same bed. this must be white chain’s studio apartment in throne.
Bone Trauma
Head, meet tail; mouth wide agape.
For speaking or eating, or both?
Why not speak of eating, for growth?
“ Move him into the sun –
Gently its touch awoke him once,
At home, whispering of fields unsown. “

I’m trying to sleep away the part of the day that I cannot drink away. Shoo! Away with you, apparition of the past! Avaunt!
Has Cio ascended from a blue devil to an hangover devil? Truly a fearsome creature.
At least I hope that’s Cio
Unbound darkness.
I wonder if this thing was sent by Himself / the Heretic’s Court?
love white chain being at these two scenes in two wildly different appearances and roles.
of course she would come back, the protagonists never die. can’t have that!
Quick, Allison, throw coffee at it!
Drink for glory, sleep for an age
Beware lamented lovers’ rage
