so it'd be pretty holey

New one is up.

You wouldn't like me when I'm angry

[i2amroy]

And finally there's the green flash.

[Rolan7]

Maybe it's powered not by anger, but by hatred. He couldn't hate Durkon.

[Sergius]

Wild guess: Durkon fed the vampire-thing some fake or altered memory... somehow.

[Zangi]

Durkon isn't a cruel person. 
There is no practical use mentioning how Roy's little brother was mauled, other then for cruelties sake.  Or I guess as a cruel form of taunting.

[Sergius]

That wouldn't exactly prove anything, alignment change and vampire and all that.

EDIT: However "one thing I've always wondered" would be a bad slip. He couldn't have "always wondered" including back when he was good.

Somehow tying into the incident where Durkula failed to make the connection between Durkon helping his mother with dishes too much, then not helping Roy with the frogbeast.
I don't see how yet though...

[Bauglir]

My guess is that Roy talked about the incident more than what Durkon showed Durkula, and his monologue makes no sense in light of the additional information Roy knows Durkon should have. Not sure exactly how, but that's likely it.

anyone has the link to the strip where they talk about this?

nvm the giant explains

honestly, pretty weak for having us wait this much

If they have it hasn't been in the web-available strips AFAIK.

I don't recall if it was shown.  I looked in their forums to see if someone else remembered, but the most I found was The Giant telling everyone that Durkon cannot show Durkula any false memories.  What Durkula cannot do, as Rolan7 noted, is spot inconsistencies, but apparently that wasn't what he was aiming for, either.

wonder if we're going to actually get to see what Durkon showed to HPOH and what caused him to get it mixed up like that. Hoping the next strip is Durkon gloating.

He showed him Roy telling him the story about what happened with Eric. That's it.

I think Roy is just realizing that this level of sadism doesn't fit "Durkon, but Evil," especially since he's claiming Durkon was a jerk retroactively ("one thing I've always wondered").

Yes, exactly. This is a tactical error on the part of the vampire, not a trick on the part of Durkon.

Which is kinda disappointing; I was hoping for Durkon to be more of an active participant in the realization.  I suppose that does suggest that Chekhov's gun is still loaded on the mantle, but still...

[scrdest]

That's... uncharacteristically dumb of the writing. It's a turn of the phrase, FFS. And especially in context of the gloating here.

[Akura]

I imagine what triggered the revelation was the line "More than five?"

Since I have not seen the non-web comics, the only thing that shows anything related to Eric Greenhilt's death was this strip.
