It's a good thing no one in their party ever does anything rash...except the person who is going to try negotiating their release.

Wow, Leaf is kinda screwed on this one. I hope Ayne doesn't lose her temper.

ooh look at that colored window radiating sunlight into many colors !! sweet ^^

Lmao... I reckon they'll do okay. Ayne's got better control than she used to... not that thats saying a whole lot, but I still think they'll make it out of there with at least a lead. Besides, Dwarvish diplomatics seem to have coincided with Ayne-an diplomatics so far...

What's that wall say in the back there?

I read it as
MOPEFIST WAS HERE

certain about WAS HERE, pretty sure about OPEFIS, doubting about M and T

Well, I am certain about the M, but your T could just as easily be an H.

I wouldn't worry too much. Technically speaking, Leaf hasn't done anything, except bringing potentially dangerous magic into the city. Besides which, if you kill Leaf, the Furies have no host and will proceed to rampage throughout the city. Not good. So it will be much easier to just expel him from the kingdom, by which a potential danger has been easily removed.

just like dwarfs to not realise that protagonists need to be able to escape from prison

What kind of magic did the Dwarves use on the prison bars? Any ideas? I think it's pretty ingenious...

We can trust Geb because he's a good-natured soul and wouldn't lie to a friend like Leaf. Furthermore, sometimes the most powerful weapon is the truth. When people call your bluff and find out it wasn't a bluff, they're all that much more impressed. And I'm pretty sure the dwarves know the prison they built. I mean...they built it, who would know more?

And if that babble of nonsense I just wrote, take this explanation: It advances the plot, don't ask questions.

In all fairness, Leaf's "clever schemes" have gotten them into more trouble than Ayne's temper

The young one is innocent-he would not even harm pocket lint. lalala.

Geb seems smart and calm enough to be trusted. Plus, he has little to gain from knowingly lying.

I'd ditch Rhyme if I were them though. Rhyme's advice got Leaf in trouble twice so far (First the furies, now trying to pass through the gate.) And I'm not convinced those were both well intentioned mistakes on Rhyme's part....

Nobody ever expects the Elven Inquisition!

"That's not fair! Who makes prisons you can't escape from?" The more I think about that line, the funnier it becomes.. =)

omnipotent maybe? its a stretch

So what was a Mopefish doing there in the first place?

lol
"Well that's no fair! Who makes a prison you can't escape from?
Oh, silly, naive, little Leaf. ;P

Hee! Pretty glass window!
