Stairs, don’t you love ’em?
At least they’re finally at the temple.
Indeed, it has been a long journey xD
As a gamer, I frequently find myself inflicting overkill on my enemies because the alternative is that they might not die. Consequently, if I had to climb enough stairs to put me in enough pain/tire that I want to jump off, I’d probably keep going to the top just to make sure the fall killed me.
With the waking/sleep time discrepancy, I wouldn’t be surprised if Kai’s forgotten he’s dreaming.
I think they’re high enough up already :p
And up they go, back on course
to be exhausted at the top;
with their new friends tagging along
but Kai now looks ready to drop.
Kai dreams they all look up to him
to be the hero prophesied.
He fears defeat, this mighty guy;
he doesn’t want them to say he dried.
And now they reach the mighty gate
behind which the challenge begins.
We guess that Kaya waits within;
a goddess, for all of her sins.
Sir Kai with hair red as a fire,
Is too tired to climb any higher.
But as tired as he
May very well be,
Just wait until he meets Dream!Kaya.
Hooray for additional party members!
Kai’s legs: Hooray for the end of these stairs!
The readers: Hooray for being right about Kaya? We’ll find out soon!
Though I do wonder: now that Kai’s reached the temple if he’ll meet a dream version of Jin inside?
You will find out soon :p
You’re just entertaining everyone’s theories so you can watch all of them react to getting #Jossed at the end, aren’t you?
Oh, so you -have- met our beloved host/artist/author! 😉 🙂 🙂
Ah, my old enemy: Stairs. 10 points to guess the movie. Also I’m betting 50 points that Kaya is the Godess.
I know which one it is, but I’ll leave the guessing to everyone else ^^
it’s a great movie, though 😀
Wait. Is it an Adam Sandler movie?
Kai is the dragon warrior then…
…to easy to guess the movie 😉
Eh, I used some of that “Google-Fu” Daniel the Human uses so often to get the answer. Yeah, he’s not the only one who can use Google…
Alright, he helped. I’m used to Cybertronian systems, Human systems are similar, but not the same…
I actually got it immediately. Love the “dragon warrior” pun there. Surprisingly fitting. Was the reference intentional Robin?
No, it’s a happy accident 😀
There are no accidents.
I bet: inside the Temple is even more Stairs.
Nah, It’s gonna be an elevator.
Yeah, when I first saw that door, before reading the text on the page, I thought,
“OMG, all those stairs, just to get to the elevator. That sounds like it’s probably going to be quite the elevator ride, too…”
Imagine if it goes down.
Wait and see xD
Roll perception.
D1: There is more stairs behind the door
D10: it’s just a door
D15: it’s an elevator back down to the village, the real temple is to your right
D20: Congratulations your here now WAKE UP!!!
LOL
Heh D20: Just when it’s getting good!
Starting to wonder though since this dream quest is all about getting this Goddess to bring rain back to the village (water) if at the end of the arc we see Kai suddenly wake up, toss the covers off, and hurry off panel down the hall. Momentary silent panel, and then in the next we have the sound effect for a toilet being flushed, and then for the final panel we have a relieved looking Kai heading back to the couch.
How much does he need? xD
16 or higher.
Look on the bright side – at the end he can just slide down the banister!
Oh yeah, that would be amazing xD
Did Kai almost just commit dream suicide
Don’t worry, he would have woken up before he hit the ground.
It would have woken him up I guess xD

Hey now, those tourists didn’t have to walk all the way. They got to ride in buses most of the way up the mountain. Such cheating!
I think Kai got a super deluxe tour xD
Second panel : to force to do silly things , Kon falls and rolls down to the beginning of stairs XD …………… Le WHAT !!!! A flat stairs 0_o
The “best” way to know you’re in your own dream : you’re the only one to suffer (fourth panel) ^_^”
I begin to think Kaya will be in , but as the last boss to fight before the goddess . For the goddess herself , i bet on Cheynas or Zuri ^_^
Panel 4: There should be a comma at the end of “Oh”.
I find it amusing how everyone besides Kai looks cheerful and energetic still despite also having just climbed that crazy staircase. (Even if the two guardians only had to make half the trip.) If only dreams could help improve your stamina Kai! Then you might finally have a chance at matching Rex a bit more evenly next practice. For now though, poor Kai! I’ve had dreams like that before, and when I wake up I swear I’m exhausted. I can only imagine what walking up that many stairs would do to a person.(Errr… dragon?) You’ve done an amazing job as always Robin, and put in an incredible amount of detail despite what you’re going through right now. You have the love, support, and respect of your community. Keep on with your incredible work, and as always, stay awesome!
And now that Kai is at the top , i ask the cruel question : “- Why you haven’t dreamed about you being winged , Kai ?” XD
Dizzy and very tired Sam, and Frodo following him, crawled up the last step, and sat down rubbing their legs and knees. They were in a deep dark passage that seemed still to go up before them, though at a gentler slope and without steps. Gollum did not let them rest long.
“There’s another stair still,” he said. “Much longer stair. Rest when we get to the top of next stair. Not yet.”
Sam groaned. “Longer, did you say?” he asked.
“Yes, yess, longer,” said Gollum. “But not so difficult. Hobbits have climbed the Straight Stair. Next comes the Winding Stair.”
“And what after that?” said Sam.
“We shall see,” said Gollum softly. “O yes, we shall see!”
Kai has reached the top
A giant door’s before him
What is behind it?
Out of subject ; i think about two possible ideas for new arcs after this one
First idea : after the visit of the museum (last year) for the half of the school , they switches and goes to the forest for this year
Second idea : while the twins are to the medical examen , the two last witches tries to get revenge on Cleo . This will give more first roles to Rex , Beni and Nate ; maybe some cameos too ?
Once again, I’m predicting the “witch” is Kaya
Annndd… I’m feeling like that’s just too easy. Remember who the -artist/writer- is! MUWHAhahahahaaaaaa! 😉
You have a point, it could just as well be a character that’s basically made cameo level appearances before now
Wow, Kai has a dragon’s stamina and he is still sweating, while Lilo, Kon, and Khan are like they just woke up. Ultimate humiliation XD
… actually, Kai’s “dragon” stamina was already shown to not be so great.
Kai carried Lilo most of the way. 🙂 LOL
Personally, I don’t trust stairs.
They’re always up to something.
I’m down with that. 😉
And behind the door…more stairs. Not only more stairs, but higher-dimensional stairs a la M.C. Escher.
“I’ll take what’s behind door number two, Alex.” 😉
And it’s…David Bowie.
AAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i love this comic so much i am so glad i am still able to read it
poor kai dont jump off the stairs 😂
Too bad he can’t fly…
