Anyone who guessed the previous page was a nightmare from Nigel's pov, congrats, looks like we're right on that one. Pretty interesting to see what Nigel's visions look like from his perspective.

Something tells me Nigel's onto something. . .
Not that I expect Leo to connect the dots correctly.

Nigel has seer powers... And by the looks of it, he has had them after Luna (The Tree of Life) had her talk with his family when she rejected him.

...However, this means that Luna not taking in Nigel was the reason Nigel turned out this way. Nobody else alive as we know it in the story currently, has the gift/curse of future sight, or any way of understanding it, meaning that Luna leaving Nigel with his rather horrid family (Outside of Toby), and then later to fend for himself, only made things worse.

Yeah, turns out leaving a Kid with Future sight without any way of training them or putting them in with people who cannot understand the whole thing, would turn them into a rather foul tempered individual... And the final knife twist for any degree of respect Nigel had for Luna, was her rendering him blind... Right after she basically admitted that the whole reason she did not accept him those two times, was something absurdly simple to hammer out of him.

Seriously, leave him with young Miralle, Leo and Chilli for a week, and they'd have gotten that little kink smacked out of him... Very likely to be literal in the case of Leo... Also, I can picture Young Nigel having to put up with kid Miralle and Leo having one of their usual fights and him having to either run away from their "big ball o' violence" chasing him, or Nigel frantically chasing said "Big Ball o' Violence" to try and get them to knock it off... Ah, to imagine "What could have been"...

...And to make it worse, Leo does not know it, but his attitude is EXACTLY like Nigel's parents. The only thing stopping him from being a carbon copy of them in Leopard form is the fact that he actually cares about the citizenry, rather than how Nigel's parents saw those citizens as "Serfs" or "Plebians".

Remember, Nigel and Toby's parents kept Toby and Nigel away from the Citizenry, an attitude of Elites who view "Commoners" as "disposable"... That is literally the one difference between Leopold and Nigel's parents.

I do wonder if Nigel was meant to foil blind obedience.

Loyal opposition if you will. As it seems being made blind ended up giving him even more sight for things others cannot

Why copy you pass the same comment?

I'm curious, after the whole journey, how their perception of the tree of life will be. It seems easy to judge her based on these current things happening, but I feel there is more to it overall.

Ignoring the first part, seeing as my so-called "Copied Comment" was because it was intended to answer the comment, and I found it was better as a Standalone, I will focus on the more important part.

Luna admitted to her advisor shortly after Miralle's team.left that her future sight had become Murky, which was why so many of her decisions were so weird and irrational. Luna had become so dangerously reliant on her future sight that she has no real clue on properly making a decision without it. (I.e, blinding Nigel as a "Lesson"? Her tearful breakdown after Miralle left implies it was a spar of the moment thing.)

...And she seems to understand that if they come back from this adventure, they may end up hating her because of what they may find on their journey...

...Luna actually admitted she could handle the hate as long as her baby girl comes home... But she was still frightened of Miralle's Scorn as well.

How long until any of them figure it out that Nigel's nightmares are actually future visions?

Probably after they run into somebody who knows what it is...

...Which may not be for a long while.

Well Vazilior, looks like I kind of get vindicated. Nigel has Future Sight abilities... And by the looks of it, he has had them after Luna (The Tree of Life) had her talk with his family when she rejected him at a young age...

...However, this means that Luna not taking in Nigel was the reason Nigel turned out this way. Nobody else alive as we know it in the story currently (the keyword here being "Currently", as we have yet to see anyone else have such an ability), has the gift/curse of future sight, or any way of understanding how horrible the visions are, meaning that Luna leaving Nigel with his rather horrid family (Outside of Toby), and then later to fend for himself, without any way of understanding his powers, only made things worse.

Yeah, turns out leaving a Kid with Future sight without any way of training them or putting them in with people who can understand the whole thing, would turn them into a rather foul tempered and sour individual... And the final knife twist for any degree of respect Nigel had for Luna, was her rendering him blind... Right after she basically admitted that the whole reason she did not accept him those two times, was something absurdly simple to hammer out of him. (I mean, his weak "That's it?", basically tells us that it was something so absurdly easy to teach out of him.)

Seriously, leave him with young Miralle, Leo and Chilli for a week (Especially with their antics), and they'd have gotten that little kink smacked out of him... Very likely to be literal in the case of Leo... Also, I can picture Young Nigel having to put up with kid Miralle and Leo having one of their usual fights and Nigel having to either run away from their "big ball o' violence" chasing him, or Nigel frantically chasing said "Big Ball o' Violence" to try and get them to knock it off... Ah, to imagine "What could have been". (Heh, reminds me of Dr Stone with Tsukasa and Senku, especially the part where Tsukasa lamented on "What could have been"...)

...And to make it worse, Leo does not know it, but his attitude is EXACTLY like Nigel's parents. The only thing stopping him from being a carbon copy of them in Leopard form is the fact that he actually cares about the citizenry in some twisted way, rather than how Nigel's parents saw those citizens as "Serfs" or "Plebians".

Remember, Nigel and Toby's parents kept Toby and Nigel away from the Citizenry, an attitude of Elites who view "Commoners" as "disposable", while Leo lets his actions speak for themselves with the Citizens rather than his (rather crass) words... That is literally the one difference between Leopold and Nigel's parents.

Dude really have a thing for tentacles... Everytime he sleep, he dreams about some of them!

Leo is a jerkass, as usual, but he's right that Nigel needs to start walking and adapting to his blindness.

Yeah, Nigel should probably get some practice with that stick. And who knows, maybe he'll pick up a trick or two.

I doubt he'll get like Daredevil abilities, but who knows.

Interesting. Wonder why hes getting visions and if he was always able to or just recently.

Nigel's rant at Luna before he went blind had him blurt out about his nightmares... Implying he had them right after he was rejected by Luna the first time.

Around that time, Luna seemed to start having her Future sight turn murky, which she admitted to her advisor after Miralle's team left.

Hmmm interesting. I doubt she knew about him having them back then or she wouldn't have fucked up as bad as she did at that moment with him.

Yes I remember that part. But that doesn't explain why he has them she's definitely got more power and stuff than he does obviously in more ways than one and he only ever trained to be a warrior not some Mystic so it's very interesting he has a a connection somehow why she is losing hers

The person they're going to meet may explain it hopefully.

Regardless that I already had a suspicion that Nigel had powers of future sight because of what Luna had said once, even if it was brief, I hope the rest of the team will soon find out what these "nightmares" he has are really about; I already want to know how this goes on.

I think the dreams are profitc

Knew that for a while ever since Nigel flat out told Luna that he had been "Plagued by nightmares" ever since Luna rejected him from becoming a Guardian...

neet

Nigel than takes the stick and hits him on the head with it. Like Rafiki

...Nah, I find it funnier to imagine Tristian finally getting sick of Somebody's Shit, politely asking Nigel if he can borrow his stick, and Nigel complies because he knows what is coming... To which Tristain does his Rafiki impression.

Just pictured Tristian doing what Rafiki did to the Hyena's near the end of the first movie and it's funny af.

I continue to be concerned that any kind of unity in this party will come via an ass pull.

...Or Tristan losing his last nerve and doing a Rafiki on Leo.

THEN GO READ ANOTHER WEBCOMIC!!!

Well, STOP IT for the people who DO ENJOY IT!!!

Yeah, the pacing is weird, but that could be more due to the release schedule than the wrting.

...I just realised that Nigel is rather relaxed around Tristan (Drat, just realized I keep mispelling his name), as in, rather than trying to shake off Tristan or get snappy at him, he actually treats him as if he were a friend.

...Heh, ironic... I just realized that had Luna taken in either Tristan or Nigel back then, the two could have actually helped each other deal with their flaws that Luna couldn't apparently solve herself... Tristan would have helped Nigel understand how important it would have been to actually help people, while Nigel would have basically helped Tristan Grow a Spine.

It isn't even a matter of "Could", but "Would".

...I just pictured a piece of Luna's reasoning screaming at her from inside a Cage to "NOOOO!!! Take Tristan with you before it is too late!!!", all while Rah J'an is poking the Cage with a Stick and telling it to "Shut your cakehole already! What are you screaming about anyway?!"

"& I Swear that bitching & killing is ALL YOU'RE GOOD FOR!!!!!"

Nigel: I'm blind!
Me: Did your species evolve those big 'ol ears for a reason? Start listening!
Nigel trips over ears.

Also, do tentacles just mean they are going to meet Alexander soon? Little tentacles mean Lily too! Maybe they meet Alexander and Lily on a boat!

Lily was stated to join the Crew to look for her daddy.

They are more likely to meet Lilly long before they meet Alexander.

Interesting development so far

To rocroldis: You're not funny. It would help if you stopped underestimating people's talents like that.

To IChageNS: There's nothing wrong with the pacing. You and a few others "criticism" have been piss-poor. It doesn't help you that you're not subscribed to her.
