Welcome back to the Suffering of Travis Willingham. The Mighty Nein have just shown Caduceus the Light of Creation Beacon, and Caleb warned Fjord not to consume it:
Jester: “You have so many balls inside of you already.”
Caleb: “Ja, balls deep.”

#
They’re back in Alfield meeting with Bryce and we get another Molly gutpunch.
I’m not sure whether to be glad that Matt isn’t letting Molly just disappear without a trace or feel gutted at the repeated reminder of his loss. Both? Both. Both is good.
#
“Oh, we could forge another letter!” says Jester, cheerfully, in front of the lawmaster of Alfield.
(They’re lucky that Bryce likes them and is a good sport.)
#
Beau: “What’s the best dick you’ve seen?”
Jester: “Honestly? Well…”
Matt:

(In case you don't know, the answer is Molly. Taliesin is right chuffed.)
#
Nott’s aggressive style of affection is … unique
“I’ll fucking kill you if you try to pay!!”
#
“Your delightfully pleasant evening purveyor of down pillows and blankets, Crute, is over eager to show you where you can leave him the fuck alone.”
#
They’re now planning to stop in Trostenwald to tell Molly’s old friend Gustav (he from the circus) about what happened.
Beau: You know, I never really thought about the fact that when you’re with someone when they die, it’s kind of your responsibility forever to tell anyone who doesn’t know what happened.
#
Sam just described Cad as ‘seven-foot Bob Ross’ and, well, he’s not wrong
#
It's really nice for the Mighty Nein to have this visit to Alfield and the reminder of how they can make a difference, especially after the Iron Shepherds arc where several of them have been wrestling with re-evaluating their lives after Molly’s death.
(Even if Caleb has got overwhelmed as they’re leaving.)
#
This whole bit with Caduceus and Gustav is fascinating.
“I know a guilty man when I see one.”
(Taliesin to Matt, after it all shakes out: That was the best whisper I’ve ever had, by the way. I’m not telling them what you said, but that was DEEP.
Matt: That’s a 27 insight [roll].)
#
@GalacticJonah did comic pages with that conversation about guilt between Beau, Fjord and Caleb, and it’s beautifully done.
#
Interesting: when Fjord looks into the Beacon, Matt describes it as a ‘momentary release, like a tether that previously had gone unseen is loosened’. I wonder if that’s his connection to his patron.
#
“Look to purchase, Jester! Just look!”
Travis, your husband is showing. Also like that’s gonna happen.
#
“Why did you do this, Matt? Why did you put this in front of us?”
“You know exactly why. Because it’s funny.”
#
“We have a dog! What the fuck did we just do? This was like a Renn Faire purchase.”
#
And we leave our heroes having just arrived in the port city of Nicodranas.
(And this is, what, roughly 56 hours until I'm caught up?)
Jester: “You have so many balls inside of you already.”
Caleb: “Ja, balls deep.”
