It was earlier in this thread.

Anyway, when are we going to see a continuation to Holy Mitten's narrative?

[Karnewarrior]

but vester said it quite a ways before that mod. whatever. It doesn't matter.
Why are we distracted by silly thigs when we have----Oh! a Butterfly!

(weeeee!)

Still, send Cacame to kill some demons or a Size 2000 dragon.

yeesh, threads like this are the reason we need an archive forum.

As soon as I found out the King would be an elf, I began constructing various selfdestruct devices.

This fort's going out in a blaze of glory. And magma.

What are you even talking about? Are you pretending to be OP or something?

remember, death traps would be useless anyway.

So I've been playing this RPGMaker game called Last Scenario (which is really absolutely amazing compared to the crap you're used to seeing come out of that program), and had just reached the pivotal point in the plot where the Shocking Truth^TM about the Great Demon War^TM was finally revealed.  This story is accompanied by way more than the average amount of "full scene portraits", and finally starts leading up to the villain's Tragic Past^TM that explains why he's so evil.  The Epic Tragedy Music^TM starts playing, the storyteller goes through a bunch of ellipses, and...

...I fall out of my chair laughing.  It's too easy to imagine that as an updated version of the comic about Cacame's past.  Apparently, every elf reacts to that situation the same way, right down to the way their mouths hang open.

Unfortunately, there were no dwarves for him to become the king of, just other Totally Not Elves^TM.  But I did fight his pet dragon just before that scene...

THANKYOU FOR BRINGING THIS TO MY ATTENTION SOCRAN
YOU WILL BE REWARDED GREATLY ONCE I TRACK DOWN THIS PLAGARIZER

[Halceon]

I recently started up a new fort. And, well, my king is an elf too. As ar various other nobles.

[A-chana]

Well, hey, everyone and their mother uses that pose in the Last Scenario picture, or at least the basic idea of it. That expression? Dunno, could be either way. But I recommend against asking the person with anger if there's gonna be any asking at all.

[Fault]

yeah, I'm pretty sure michaelangelo deserves credit for the pose. he probably came up with it before I did. probably.

but there might be a case for the "WTF" face. that was definitely of my own conception.

on a more serious note, seeing as elves are peaceful and immortal, witnessing one of their own die in combat is probably an unthinkable impossibility to them. something which they have never seen nor planned to see. definitely worthy of a WTF face. see trope here.

[Socran]

Yeah, I'm aware the pose itself is a cliche, but the face certainly isn't.  Coupled with the fact that it's an elf (sort of - they're called Havali, and they're not stuck up hippies living in forests) holding his dead wife, before he rises to leadership and swears genocide against the people responsible for it.  In fact, the Pieta Pose^{also TM} is technically the one thing that doesn't quite match up with the comic.
