Anthem’s getting into the groove of being a bona-fide priestess. *If* her goddess backs her up she’ll likely come off as completely badass. Otherwise she’s in trouble.
Oops, spotted a typo. I’m a terrible editor. Essentially, she’s going to make Vish change her appearance so she looks like Momba Tusu and fight in his place. Anthem’s going to essentially force Ailari to… en-noble? Beef up? Generally awesome-ify her or risk her dying in the duel.
There we go, fixed my screw-up. Anyway, back to drawing a page that isn’t a huge pile of words in between increasingly desperate attempts to pose two talking heads in interesting ways.
Ah. I had not had my coffee then,
having screwed up a critical piece of grocery logistics planning
(note: the clever plan not to have to carry 5 lbs of milk around town
is not so clever if you don’t actually remember to swing by the corner
store before it closes) and had been up way too late battling Skynet
(Adobe IS Skynet, FYI) so everything was pretty confusing, actually. )
And–huh. Someone’s taken to this heroing business with a vengeance. She’s like the anti-Garion.
This is pretty awesome. Shes going to use a meet with Ailari to go into the duel with a gods vision. Not good manners by any stretch of the imagination, or even fair, but what the hell.
Isaac–well, Hokta Chuul’s got a divine aegis of protection too as his goddess’ champion, not to mention all the centuries of experience. So it’s more like evening the odds in a fight already unfair, don’t you think? And it should indeed be awesome–Flushmaster said more clearly what I was trying in (misspelled) Latin epigram, that Lady Luck has proverbially always favored those who gamble for the highest stakes.
Of course, there’s also “the harder they fall” for a proverb, too…

Confused cat is confused. At least as confused as Vish…
But she got her coffee, so this will presumably all make sense!

Oh! clean forgot — Obvious quote is obvious:
Audaci favit Fortuna
(Sad, what caffeine deprivation will do.)

I’d say her plan should actually gain favor for her with Ailari. She is a trickster goddess, after all.

I believe the common translation into English is “Fortune favors the bold.”
