Temple of Kraden News: Welcome to the Temple of Kraden! ------ All worshipers may enter the Most Holy Place in single file, reflecting on the bountiful blessing Kraden hath provided unto him or herself since their last visit. Head coverings are not necessary, as true penitence and humility are found within. The Priests and Priestesses of Kraden endeavor to remind all that fresh orange juice is heavily preferred; only whores use frozen.
Greetings, heathen. Perhaps some fortuitous blessing of Kraden's grace hath led you to our humble Temple, or perhaps you are simply curious about this strange and wonderful cult. Should you be willing - and dare to hope - to achieve enlightenment, the door opens before you. Lo! Leave your old life behind! For once you step through, you become something more than just yourself.

You become a Kradenette.

Are you willing to make the rapturous plunge? Do you have what it takes?

Thanks Poui.

So, uh, any thoughts on this being a dream or some such or has that been officially jossed or something...?

'cause now I'm confused about the latter parts of this page.

Anthony's appearance was predicted this far back. Him showing up has been planned for a long time.

Holy shit, this is definitely a long-planned thing then.

And yeah wow her dad is now rampant into "imma dick" territory

I doubt it's a dream, Ulta, but it might be. I just read that part as a representation of how Annie was feeling.

Thanks Poui.

I always thought that was referring to the phonecall she got from him that one time

EDIT: Also, I'm curious 'cause this chapter is titled "The Tree" And on the Archives page, it uses an image from this page.

Same. The art style changed when she took her makeup off too. He's making her feel like a kid again.

Actually, assuming it's not a dream, what if everything he's said and done so far in this conversation has been to worry away at annie's mental state so she'd be okay with giving up control of Renard?

So I picked a random chapter to reread, (Fire Spike) and lo and behold:

Yeah, this has been going on.

The moment when she gives up control of Renardine is obviously going to be a climactic point of the webcomic. I think Anthony is being asked to have control of Renard so that the Court can experiment with him. Or if not the court, Anthony himself. So, yeah, definitely has moved into dick territory.

Yeah rereading more chapters, there is so much foreshadowing. Tom plans everything.

ANNIE NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

UltaFlame reflexively protects his own.

EDIT: Actually, I was looking back at an old chapter, and this part: http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/?p=800

And the pages that follow, show Antimony speaking about her father, somewhat. And she looks... kind of like she's trying to convince herself?

She loves the shit out of him... but he's never done anything to earn that love. At least on-screen...? I really don't get it.

I think it's less that she loves him, and more that she wants him to love her.

I guess "why" isn't a very useful question to ask at this juncture, is it?

Dude's her father, man.

She never really would want to believe he hates her.

EDIT: And every time he crops up you can tell Annie's got some major issues with him, if only by the way she reacts in a body language sense. Cutting into her hand with her nails on accident, those screwed up expressions she takes when twisting the knife at Renard about Surma.

Ah, good catch, Ulta. I thought they were just shock/tension effects, I didn't think to connect them to the bones.

Also, Annie's face looks eerily like Jones, especially with that haircut.
