Uh oh, I wonder if time travels differently in the valley.

 

[alacaelum]

It could be just magic, or the mist in the valley has some atmospheric property that helps the plants, and the soil could be very rich too.

With the regula-treants living there, the valley must have some sort of special circumstance, both magical and physical.

Can you stay consistent @slazer88? Thank you.

The first one is fine, but the rest are not.
I've read far and it seems it's more common for knights to be males and other stuff as said by Bard Loen, so it's safe to say Loen and Gordon would say "he/him" cause they both assume it's a male knight. As for Julchaga, idk if he can smell if it's a woman or have some advance sensing ability or not.

Thanks for the scanlation.

I don't like the behavior Julchaga was showing with breaking branches. He wanted the group to leave the way they left, which would be familiar to leave a trail of recognizable landmarks for others to follow after the group is out of the vicinity to notice.

Thanks as always cuddlebuns.

Yeah, I came to that conclusion too, part of me wants to believe he wouldnt simply sell those people to the highest bidder.

Julchalga does seem to have a few limits he doesn't cross, but he doesn't seem to care who he works for sometimes.

The best I can think, in the case, he is doing that for "malicious" purposes is... that he won't sell the regular-treant, but he does want a trail back so that he himself can explore for valuable plants, in this case, I wouldn't mind, as long as he doesn't cause damage for the treants I am fine with him wanting to profit a little.

But if he does sell them to someone... yeah, I will feel betrayed, but for now, I will believe in him.

 

[Gunlord500]

It's possible our thief wanted a sneaky way to get some gold but IMO since Bard noticed him doing it, he probably would have said something if Julchaga really was being too mercenary.

We were just told he's perceptive and he avoided touching the knight himself for some reason. There's no better way to express the ambiguity. After the reveal though, you're right.

As for Julchaga everyone is overthinking it. Why wouldn't you mark your way when you're in an untouched forest. As for checking the bags, maybe just trying to figure out how they got poisoned. The reveal of shellfish right after talking about food poisoning is kind of concerning.

the mangaka got one thing wrong. a human can survive 3 minutes without air, 3 days without water, and 3 weeks without food, depending on your body fat %. that's the rule of the threes right out of the SAS survival manual.

You think they know about anoxic brain damage?

I'm not sure i see the issue?
Like you said, Gordon and Loen assumed that the knight is male because that's literally all the knights we've seen in the manga so far before they took off the armor.
You can use they to address someone male or female because They is a neutral pronoun.
What's the issue?

Did you see the last image? Are we assuming Gordon is blind and deaf then since he said They/Their after removing the armor by him and Loen themselves? Gordon himself used He when they were moving and lifting her up.

For Gordon using They/Their:
I/They/Them/we/You/It are all neutral pronouns. Unless it is grammatically incorrect, there's nothing really stopping him from using it to refer to someone regardless of their gender. Gordon used He when he assumed that the knight is male.

Go bother someone else, not me. You sound like those LGBT zombie activist that doesn't make sense.

I think you're overthinking it

Maybe it's a bad habit, but I occasionally freely switch between 3rd person pronouns when I'm talking to someone about a third party, even if they're in my immediate vicinity

Sure, it's probably just a translation inconsistency in the end, but I don't think it's big enough of a problem to really get into knots about it

That feels unnecessary, dunnit? You replied to golestar, and they replied in turn - and I don't think their response was out of pocket enough to warrant this lol

What's the issue here?
I was asking for grammatical consistency and he came to me like it's regarding someone's right about the person's pronouns. I like Ironclad's respone because we're both looking at the situation and what the characters are seeing and referencing the argument.

It was annoying that I keep repeating myself and that golester was just repeating his argument.
