The Utility of Windows (57)
Page 57 is up! Good thing Ivolga kept glancing at that window. Note that Steward Hostim used to be spelled Gostim. Then a friend pointed out, quite reasonably, that Gostim and gosudar look way too similar. So now it’s Hostim. If you’ve forgotten him altogether: he’s the steward of Shelisk…

Page 48 is up! Well, look what the wyrm’s dragged in… There’s also a bonus panel that didn’t make it to the final cut. Reason being, Gorrion had trouble deciding what she should evaluate first – the overall situation or the marshal. The overall situation won (by the narrowest of…
