I wonder if it's her actions he disapproves of, or his own. Even if he believes in what he's doing strongly enough to go through with it, it's a hard thing for most people to smile at someone whose murder they are about to arrange. (Regardless of whether he shot her with the arrow, of course, it is still her murder.) I read it as both. Hating what he has to do, and hating that he has to do it. "This isn't right, but she's making me do it" - a variation on Diego's rationalization.

To me, it sounds like the main thing keeping her stranded is that there is no one to guide her, not that her guide cannot reach her. Maybe Annie will have to be her guide.Has anyone considered what might happen if Jeanne no longer guards the Annan waters? I mean, right now, the only way for anyone to cross is to fly or use the bridge. If it knew about Jeanne, wouldn't the Court still want to have her there? And even if the answer were "no", I'm sure they would want to be given the option to say yes or no. How many detentions will Jones give Annie if Annie opens the ethereal door between the Forest and the Court? Ho boy Annie, I sure hope you know what you're doing...

If the court buried all records of Jeanne and what happened, they might not know how the river is blocked, or even THAT the river is blocked. Removing the block may not be noticed!

When I'm adding a post to a reaction thread to a non-current page, I try to answer as if I hadn't read any of the comic after the page that the thread is about. Or any later reaction threads.

I'm not sure if physical contact is important but the idea is that the visions are not coming from Jeanne, she just triggered the reaction in Parley and Parley is picking up what we're seeing now. Also, Parley is really a ham sandwich. Sorry for rezzing an old thread but Tom just verified, I was wrong... The visions aren't coming from Jeanne, they are a memory dump.

I can't believe I missed that. You know, that's better than some. A lot of people, when adding a post to a thread based on a current page they answer as if they hadn't read any of the comic before the page that the thread is about, or any of the posts in the thread before them. So you're good. You're fine. You're not making me weep copious tears of blood.

So do you think we need separate threads for returning to old pages where questions were posed and discussing the effect that more recent information might have on those questions?

I am of two minds on this. By raising an old thread, the answers to previous questions and other thoughts and points are right there and either will not be re-raised or can be refuted, and newcomers will not make the same mistakes. Considering "necroposting" a cardinal sin, and browbeating people for such, is something I personally find irksome.
Making a new thread is spoiler protection for those who are starting the series from the beginning. Especially if the new thread explicitly has SPOILERS included in the title. Or is it more reasonable to assume that anyone who reads from the beginning will *not* stop until they reach current? GC is addictive like that...

I don't mind necro-posting so long as the answer is relevant to the thread before it. It's not like chat. Especially when the thread has died.
Basically, if you resurrect a thread, better be responsible about/for it.

well, has anyone consider what would happen if Jeanne was freed and the court exposed? Ysengrin will have a fantastic time...
it could have been arranged by him, forging letters to both Jeanne and greenguy and subtly influncing the courts decisions.

I seem to recall it being said that Ysengrin's anger at humans is relatively recent.

relative, to Ysengrin, hundreds of years ain't much when you're immortal.

Except I wasn't speaking relative to Ysengrin.
