Chapter 5 — Page 22
We get it, Fetch. It’s “your” house.
↓ Transcript
PANEL ONE: Fetch addresses the crowd of refugees and warriors.
FETCH: We are running out of time. Finvarra’s army will be here any minute. The king ain’t some pretty boy – he’s a fierce warrior with powerful dark magics at his command.
GREEK HERO: We can take him.
ZOMBIE PEASANT: You’re crazy!
PANEL 2: Greek Hero and Zombie Peasant yell at each other, as Fernis steps between them.
GREEK HERO: Cower with the women and the babies then!
ZOMBIE PEASANT: These are families, you bloodthirsty fiend!
FERNIS: Please, gentleman. May I?
PANEL 3: Fernis stands in front of the crowd.
FERNIS: The name’s Fernis. Many of you know me.
I helped you settle here. Found you food and shelter, blankets for your babies, medicines for your old folks.
You know my story. Like you, I escaped the terror of Tantalus and his mercenaries. Like you, I lost everything I had to the fire bombs and the demons.
PANEL 4: Fernis up close.
FERNIS: And like you, I found a new home here. A new life. A new purpose.
And I’ll be damned if I’m letting another tyrant chase me off my land.
I say we stay. And stand our ground.
PANEL 5: Fetch watches as the crowd chants and speaks to Owen.
CROWD: Stand our ground! Stand our ground! Stand our ground!
FETCH: Technically speaking, this is my land.
OWEN: If you say so.
FETCH: We are running out of time. Finvarra’s army will be here any minute. The king ain’t some pretty boy – he’s a fierce warrior with powerful dark magics at his command.
