Chapter 91 - END
>>272585692>>272585711Oh no.
>>272585877Fucking nitro, and that madlad is laughing his ass off too.
Darren looks really hot this chapter.
>>272585603>Yuri cover
>>272585603cute lesbians
>>272586101>a literal note from the DM giving them directions forward
>>272588122Mr Tiny loses his character and luster when over exposed.
>>272586101uh so are they in the vampire mountain or the spiders moved faraway?
>>272588406Spiders moved far away.
>>272588406>Mr. Tiny made Vampire Mountain>spiders are found there and nowhere else in the world>Mr. Tiny made underground kitchen base>spiders are found there and nowhere else in the worldSeems logical.
>>272586083>Top of the morningMr. Tiny is Jacksepticeye?
>>272588406Patience, we'll get to the answers eventually.
>>272585603Looks nice but i still find the idea that these two just got up and left for vampire mountain dumb and the fact that they (i assume) get there even dumber.
23 more days huh.
>>272585603They had to warm each other up somehow on the way to the mountain
>>272585603Alice has a big ass.
>>272585569
>>272591739Debbie too going by one of the previous covers.
>>272585603Is nice that he used this cover to tease Debbie and Alice story
>>272586101 Tiny could probably make a portal straight to the Lake of Souls but instead he set up a rest stop for when he wants to take the scenic route.
>>272585943>your "people" lay eyes on Darren for the first time>within minutes your temple explodesClassic
>>272590263kek>>272591266doesn't feel real that CDF will END
>>272585711Control Freak Darren strikes again.
Bump
>>272586046Whiskeybros we won
>>272587159Steve...
>>272599770Darren...
>>272601461TRUSKA!
I know all the spoilers, which makes me feel so vindicated that the foreshadowing hasnt caught anybody else. Nobody figured out that Steve was the Lord despite all the blatant in your face hints. And nobody has figured out the purpose of this "sidequest" despite how obvious it is in hindsight.
>>272585603Damn, they have huge tits to show up like that under winter coats
>>272602155It's pretty obvious at this point that they're going to rig Spits up with the Holy Liquid and just drop him onto Steve and Gannen's loveshack.
>>272602155I'm curious now because i still have no idea what these events are about.
>>272605118I guess Harkat identity. His name is an anagram.
>>272606022Someone i think spoiled it or just guessed it but i still don't see how the dots connect.
>>272605118All in due time, little vampire.But for some hints. Here are some:>Setup for this setup volume shows up in volume/book 7.>The teeth from a few chapters had some anons on the right track before fumbling at the end.>The safehouse and the ba'shans spiders from this chapter >Let me know if the grotesque cultists look familiar
>>272606181The cover.
>>272606254Reminds me of the cliche,It's not WHERE we are, it's WHEN.
>>272604338ADMIRAL ACKBARRrr!!!
>>272585569Neat never heard of the series.Will check out the backlog. Thanks for the storytime.
>>272606254So those are the original guardians of blood? Also that's where vampire mountain was placed?>>272606264I do see the silhouette of what appears to be Kurda. >>272606281My god, is it time travel? Probably between Evanna and Tiny.
>>272606452I was playing COD: Ghosts at the time and fell in love with the Extinction gamemode for the story, and they had the same twist in a cutscene. The character wonders where they are, and it turns out to be the future. You can tell by Spits being from the past of 1930s yet still alive in a world where Ba'shan spiders exist out of the mountain. Meaning this is many generations down the line.
>>272586046>>272606326>Well, 7 years, 4 months and 22 days of not drinking down the hatch...
>>272606593LISA: The Painful fan character right here.
>>272606539Ooooh I STILL don't get how this will be explained.
>>272606649Did you notice how Darren spoke to the dragon telepathically just like how he did to the wolves?
>>272606593KEK
>>272606452On the right track anon. Just remember, just like volume/book 1, 4, and 7, this is a setup chapter.
>>272606685What? He didn't speak telepathically to the wolves if i recall correctly.
>>272606740Oh right, woops sorry sorry. I think I am remembering incorrectly, can you find the page of Harkat being pierced in his dreams?
>>272606774I will try.
>>272606774It's similar to how he can talk to/control Madam Octa I think is the way it's explained.
>>272606806OH YOU'RE SO RIGHT, I JUST REMEMBER READING HOW THE AUTHOR WANTED DARREN TO SPEAK TO THE WOLVES TELEPATHICALLY ORIGINALLY.>>272606800Just post whatever nightmare sequences you can find. Volume 10 plays out like a Rad Bradbury story.
The true nature of dragons and their relationship to the relics is incredibly retarded
While searching i found this. I get that he was a traitor but they really did do him dirty. Didn't even give him the opportunity to face death.
Also he fucking JINXED it himself. AAAaaaaaa
>>272607131I don't think Harkat ever had a dream of being staked, I may have been taking the imagery to be similar.
>>272607229Oh not that, just that Kurda's execution was really disgraceful. How they blindfolded him even though that goes against the customs.
>>272607229Found it.
Mr Tiny is also the dragon master. Hmmmm.
>>272607305
>>272607354At times Tiny feels like a bigger Shan self-insert than Darren
>>272607345Lol had just opened it. I remembered it had to be when Evanna sent Darren in but couldn't remember what chapter
>>272607305How similar. Harkat with amnesia on his quest to get his memories being put on stakes.
>>272607360So i thought this was simply Steve. Could it be Darren's shadowself or like zangetsu from bleach?
>>272607470Evanna can see the future. It's Darren.
>>272607470Harkat and Darren need to lay off the Benadryl
>>272607470I thought of posting Chuuni Darren since you posted that page.
>>272607470Lol Evanna outright says it's either Darren or Steve, well alright then.
>>272608353
>>272608425Did Darren, the author say whether all of the saga was planned or did he only have a throughline?
>>272608546I am not sure, lets hope novelanon replies to this in time.
>>272608151Evra, my beloved.
>>272607470It was foreshadowed way back then, Darren Blanco...
>>272608353Remember how the film ended with Tiny saying that Darren would join him eventually because he was the bloodthirsty one?
>>272601734BIG MOODY GUTS
>>272609103No lmao. I don't really remember the details of the movie. It's a big blur for me. But i get what you are saying.
>>272609103>Remember how the film ______
>>272609240>>272609280https://youtu.be/AX416izWM-A?si=L2qJzCYqIgYERi7a&t=316
>>272609400...
>>272609400Well, from the clip i do remember Darren's comeback. So bad.
>>272609280I'm gonna imagine that instead of dragons, Harkat saw clips of the film instead in his nightmares back then.
>>272609400My god that thumbnail is almost on par with the German book covers.
I keep waiting for Film Tiny to do the Dr. Evil little finger pose
>>272609831Anything's better than Imagine Dragons
>>272610376
>>272610376Carlos!
>>272609094Arai really is good!
>>272613760Next chapter awaits.
>>272614059Early!
>>272608546I'm not sure, I'm not as on top of blogposts and interviews like that one other anon is, I just read the books a lot.
>>272609280Hey, Steve's actor did quite well given the material he had to work with. Not as maniacal as in the books, but I definitely bought him as a former best friend who felt betrayed, with an overblown sense for theatrics. And good thing too since you could've replaced Darren's actor with a beached sturgeon without negatively affecting the quality of the film.
