Alternatively, the whole thing could just be a giant Oracle Screw You(OSY). (cf. the village of Lickmyorangeballshalfling)
A meta OSY would still be appropriate, since the Oracle does make asides to the audience.

I'm pretty sure the oracle added that he was going to die - properly - in an aside to the audience.

Indeed.

Not to mention that it would be incredibly cheap to pull another unread thing after Durkon. Particularly as Durkon's undeadism was greatly foreshadowed.

I recall reading that it was going to be a short thing originally, early on before there was a proper story. "Help! Durkon's turned undead!" "Well if he's turned undead shouldn't it be under control?" etc. And then he decided to make it a Thing.

I was refering mostly to the "will return to his homelands post-humously" oracle-saying combined with the "will bring great terror and destruction to his homelands upon his return" prophesy.

I feel like there was some kind of art style shift here.

The font's definitely been changed.  Probably the new image program the Giant's using.

They aren't stick figures anymore! And it really, really isn't working for me. They look like friggin' minifigs!

Obviously it's just that up till now everyone we have ever seen was wearing black gloves. :P

I'm not sure of what I think of it yet, it'll be interesting to see how it plays out.

(Also I totally logged in this morning, and was watching the site as it updated).

The first thing I noticed about the new art style was that we can sometimes see the bottoms of shoes.
Not sure about it yet, but I'm sure it'll grow on me.
