Like when it comes down to slavery, they clearly are not chattel slaves.

Prince Shock Jock disparagingly refers to them as "chickens", and had zero problem turning one into ash with his lightning for the crime of saying something Shock Jock disapproved of.  Indentured Servants still have rights, and are not property -- just legally obliged for a period of time.  Slaves have no rights, they're property, and laws rarely protect them from abuse or worse.  Let us hope Prince Shock Jock, if he survives the fight with rat-tails, comes back much worse for wear.

I'm not sure what I was expecting, but this sure wasn't it!  XD

Huh, I think this is one of the first times that his fooling around has come back to only impact himself... I actually feel a little bad for the poor Kit-ghost.

I'm sure he'll find a way to put the others in unnecessary peril.

But he survived?

I'm reasonably sure he did.  He certainly got what he deserved, but I don't think this plot ends with his simple death.

I kind of suspect that the fire will have burnt off the "skin" of whatever's hiding underneath.  Not expecting that to be pretty.

This could be ... problematic, if the magic that goes with flying went with Saida's soul.

Good thing his spirit inhabiting that balloon makes it tougher, as we saw how those same claws easily popped balloons earlier.  I was wondering if he was going to have to worry about getting popped all the time.

Haha, I get the impression that not all of her lights upstairs are on.

Could have gone worse, but I feel Roko's apprehension in the third panel lol

Such cruelty, all for one dang rock which was never in their possession to begin with.

Yeah, the Quetz need to go down hard.

Yep, I'm very much looking forward to seeing her hoisted by her own petard.

I'm beginning to wonder -- is this land naturally arid and the Quetz are actually bringing rain to a place where it legitimately would not rain?  Or are they holding the rain hostage, and the little guys have to regularly pay their ransome?

Their queen gets personally involved ... over one single rock.  One which was never in their possession to begin with.  It was the little guys who it was "stolen" from, not the Quetz; if anyone has a legitimate beef it would be them.  Their avarice, already hinted at, must truly be legendary.
