42.02 Cavernous Trap
“Cavernous Trap” This subject seems heavier than expected. Do you think there’s a lot of weight to those words? That’s a loaded question.
Be careful out there.
↓ Transcript
Panel 1
From the front of the raised dais, Rek crouches low and thrusts a pointing right hand towards an unsuspecting Tik while dynamically engaging the viewer and audience (offscreen). Nab who is also along the back wall of the stage is equally surprised, just seen behind the gobo leader.
Rek, loudly: "<Our sappers dealt them a staggering blow!>"
Panel 2
Along the back wall, Tik straightens up to attention once more, chin up. Nab, hearing the praise that Rek (offscreen) is building towards, takes a moment to lean forward with an admiring smile and take in Tik's stoic expression...
Rek, loudly offscreen: "<They wanted the western caverns?!>"
Panel 3
...but the mood is fleeting. While Tik's posture remains statuesque, Nab watches as the gobo's composure slowly crumbles with every word that Rek delivers. Eyes become glossy as the gobo leader built up the question...
Rek, louder offscreen: "<We brought it down on their heads!!!>"
Panel 4
...and before Rek can roar out the answer, Tik's head has already turned away from those on the stage, eyes closed to shunt away the collapse. Nab slowly glances over towards the front of the dais as cheers come from the crowd, becoming more thoughtful of what is and is not being said.
Crowd, continuous "Rek Rek Rek Rek Rek"
