I thought this was going to be a longer strip, but it actually fit neatly into 4 panels.
If you’re interested, the new Yeld book is now available for sale. A 400 page hardcover stuffed full of art and lore (and a pretty good game). Get it here!
Your princess is in another castle. Or a pillow fortress, to be more precise.

So the vampires were proxies for Bowser (and Bruce)?
And that explains why Marah could spare time to talk with Modest!
Experiencing death over and over again would definitely help explain why Future-Monster-Marah was so… out of it.
I think Marah will be the best champion
Yeah. She probably had a real hard time.
Personally I think dying over and over again is preferable over dying once and then never living again.
I think I agree. But maybe I wouldn’t if I actually had teh experience.
I guess it depends on how long intervals are between those deaths.
Maybe. Why don’t you ask Duncan or Connor McCloud?
The series did occasionally mention the potential downsides. One immortal spent decades chained up at the bottom of a river, constantly reviving only to drown again. Another was marooned on a desert island where he spent years repeatedly starving to death. At some point I imagine dying once and for all started to take on a certain appeal.
I don’t want to go into a lot of detail but I died four times this year, three at home, but my heart fortunately restarted itself on its own, the fourth in the ER after CPR and being zapped to get it beating properly again. Have you had anesthesia? It’s like that, only you don’t know it’s coming and you’ll fall if you were standing or sitting when it happens. The one at the ER was the weirdest: one second I was watching the nurse leave the room, the next I’m surrounded by the doctor and nurses, confused and in pain from the CPR. (No complaints, it saved my life!)
Dying once and getting it over with would be preferable, especially if it’s a painful death. At least in my case there was no pain (beforehand, there was some after waking up three of the four times) and it was still terrifying.
I hope you’re okay now?
Wow!
Just.. wow. I hope you’ll get better!
Thanks for sharing, really.
I want to carry a weasel wizard too!
I think the point is that dying over and over is sufficiently unpleasant that
one should *really* try not to die at all.
I second this, I think not dying is the way to go.
