Cyfandir Chronicles - Vol. 1 Ch. 2 - Both on the Ground
- Thread starter MangaDex
- Start date
The story's developing nicely, I already really dig Pom's antics. I believe this is also the first time I've seen a character with dwarfism in manga (fantasy dwarves don't count), at least explicitly said.
I wonder why Brangoire lied to the queen (I think it's to protect Aquill, but why and from what), and if he had the time to update Mellenisse of the story. I'm not familiar with Radiant, so I don't know if the queen appeared there, and what are her dispositions.
Thank you very much for the scanlation.

I don't quite understand. Why they so discriminate against wooded? Aren't they just their own people trapped in the wood for far too long?
On side note, does Radiant gonna be updated or it's officially dropped here?

It is basically an allegory of immigration--they just went through a war, and now there's a ton of people that need: Food, housing, and various other things. Yes, most of them are from the kingdom, but it doesn't make a difference to the people there. Most people coming through don't have anything.
Radiant volume 19 releases November 22nd, so we should start our work on the translations around then. You can expect it on its page.

Yeah Tony seems to like touching immigration topic since Rumble Town in Radiant. I guess try to picture France problem. But using the same citizen from the same kingdom for immigration allegory, i just can't wrap my head around it.
Oh, yeah, you're right. I just checked the last chapter of Radiant. I stop checking after no one update for so long.

I understand that. I actually like the idea but the wooded aren’t shown to be distinguishable from anyone else in any way. You look at most forms of bigotry/prejudice and it‘s things you could quickly pick up on like race, religious symbols/clothing, sexuality, ect.
I think if they wanted to do this, they could have made it so most of the wooded people come from a time when Cyfinder had a different accent. That would give something for people of prejudice to notice/target. It could also be used to maybe comment on how immigrants aren’t always treated the same since not all wooded would have the accent.
IMO immigration is a lot more complicated than other social issues. Like a lot of the people I’ve heard against immigrants around me are self admitted immigrants. There’s also the economical part like you mentioned.

The height of everyone in the classroom has confused me.
I’m assuming everyone’s around 10? I could’ve sworn Aquill looked taller but that might have just been cuz he was next to brangoire. They showed him a head above Pom so is he just taking the kids classes because he wasn’t able to because of his infection? Why’s he the only one that tall then? Is the teacher 6’5?
I’m probably overthinking this.
