- Panel 1, Page 1
Serini hops over her stepladder onto the rim of her cauldron.
Serini: Stay Back!
Serini: Everybody stay back or else!
- Panel 2, Page 1
Belkar: Or...what? You'll dunk yourself in your own witch's cauldron?
Haley: Yeah, not really getting the "or else" part.
Serini: This is amnesia potion, sunshine. One vial is enough to knock out a week of memories.
- Panel 3, Page 1
Serini points at Haley, Belkar and Vaarsuvius.
Serini: One false move and I'll dive in.
Serini: Drop your weapons, feet on the floor, and put your spellcasting hands where I can see them, or I'll wipe out everything I know about the Gate.
- Panel 4, Page 1
Haley: That's... I mean, you're bluffing. You're not going to do that.
Serini: Is that a risk you're willing to take?
Haley: Yes! That's what someone means when they say, "You're bluffing."
- Panel 5, Page 1
Serini: You don't know what it's like, getting old.
Serini: Know what's worse than forgetting your own kid's name? When you remember afterward that you forgot.
Serini: Better to get it over with, once and for all.
- Panel 6, Page 1
Haley points to the floor.
Haley: That is a heartfelt and tragic story that in no way changes the fact that you're obviously bluffing.
Haley: Now get down from there before you slip and do the thing that we both know you have no intention of doing.
- Panel 7, Page 1
Serini gets angry.
Serini: Don't tell me what to do, you patronizing twit!
Serini: I'll do the backstroke in this vat if I damn well feel like it.
- Panel 8, Page 1
Belkar: Hey now, let's all chill out and we can-
Haley: Ok.
Belkar: Huh?
Serini: Huh?
Haley: Go ahead then.
Serini: You don't think I will?
Haley: I don't care too much if you do.
- Panel 9, Page 1
Haley: We didn't come up here expecting you to even be around, much less to help us.
Haley: We're certainly not going to...what? Surrender? To preserve information that you'll have no reason to give us because we surrendered?
Haley: Like, if nothing else, it's a really poorly constructed ultimatum.
Haley: So take a swim.
- Panel 10, Page 1
Serini: ...Now you're the one who's bluffing.
Serini: You're trying to get me to give up and climb down.
- Panel 11, Page 1
Haley: Feel free to test that.
- Panel 12, Page 1
Serini: Maybe I will.
- Panel 13, Page 1
Haley: Whenever you're ready.
- Panel 14, Page 1
Lien: This is ridiculous.
- Panel 1, Page 2
Lien throws a white-blue orb from her right hand.
Lien: Razor, go!
- Panel 2, Page 2
Razor pops into existence behind Serini, its jaw full of teeth open. POP!
Serini: What's a "ray-zergo"?
D&D Context[]
- Razor is Lien's holy paladin mount.
Trivia[]
- This comic brings back the running gag of Paladins keeping their mounts in Poké Balls when not using them. When Lien first used this running gag, Razor was summoned from a Poké Ball. In this comic, it seems she upgraded to a Great Ball or a Dive Ball, the latter fitting her being an Aquatic Paladin.
