Can't say I feel much sympathy for Rogio, honestly. Only when he realized that Ranach didn't care for him and was using him did he start trying to do the right thing, and even then it's not like he was doing it for the sake of others. He was just trying to soothe his own guilt and hurt feelings. He never showed any sign of caring about what was happening to the females or how the tribe treats its members. Hell, the only reason he didn't lead the mission to capture Kargo in the first place was because Ranach ordered him not to. Since leaving the tribe his only care has been to make himself feel better. Roamer is very much at fault for being so willing to turn away as soon as he found out about Kargo hiding Ronja's fate without asking or caring why it was kept a secret from him, but Rogio is -- I can only assume -- much older than him and should definitely know better than to swoop in on someone in a vulnerable position. Even after joining the tribe and being given the rank of Baron he hasn't done a thing that isn't self-serving! Fuss and Jonna might not have died if he'd actually done something, but serving his own interests at the expense of others -- while moaning about how much he deserves a harsh fate -- seems par for the course for the character.

Man, give Rogio a damn break the poor dude. 😭

I agree with everything...except I think if we were to use Kargo's logic of "he had it coming" then Kargo also had it coming when Roamer left him without a word about it. Kargo is the one who left Roamer at the stream where he was almost killed by ghouls after blaming him for Ferah's death, so I think Roamer deserved to end the relationship the way he did. Kargo is the one who never takes responsibility for his actions, he always has someone else to blame.

oohh I don't know if I like where I think this is goinggg, Kargo needs to put down the large stick and chill out ;-;

I really don't know what I think about a whole action from last pages. That love triangle is really tiring, everyone done something wrong. I understand that Kargo could be broken when he lost his love, I understand that he feel anger, but his actions are just brutal and primal. He doesn't even first tried to speak with Rogio, he just attacked him from behind. Roamer is guilty too, Kargo wanted to speak with him before, but he just rid of him. A little immature behaviour, I think - he just scared to talk about all of it. And it looks like Rogio took a first in line occasion to find replace for Ranach, even if he really fell in love after. And relatnioship between Rogio and Kargo is strange, I wonder if something more happen between them in the past? I know that Rogio left Kargo and Ferah when they needed him, but it looks like something more, Kargo hold a great grudge against Rogio. Why he is so convinced about Rogio's fault? He doesn't blame Roamer at all. Why he speaks of Rogio like he would be a monster? "Demon who lurks his targets"? Targets? A plural? I wonder if Kargo overreacting when he sees Rogio as a monster - only beacuse he must blame someone, and it's not Roamer, beacuse Kargo loves him and he's blind about Roamer's fault? Or maybe he really knows something terrible about Rogio, about what Roamer doesn't have idea?

Roamer just slapping Kargo like xD

Retroleem

Monstertext inc. Haha. That is heartbreaking on both accounts. You totally can see how long their history together is, also how deep the wounds they gave each other. Yet still...Rogio isn't that hurt, more so like a serious beating, which gives me the hope under all his anger Kargo still cares for Rogio, cause otherwise he would've simply killed him. Rogio wasn't really fighting back and he could kill warriors etc from the MT, a bear, two strangers in a heartbeat, I seriously doubt Rogio would have a chance against him, I mean he also killed Aira. That he beat but not killed him...I dunno. Still, I really really hope Kargo gets help with his anger issues, cause at this point he is not only hurting others deeply but himself too. As someone with a really bad temper myself I can also state that the damage you do to your body and mind is immense. That being said, I feel so sorry for both of them. Both of them are brocken, be it with Kargos paranoia or with Rogios silence. Rogio refused Roamer as if he want to say "leave it be" like he said before "I deserve that and I know" and Kargos unstopped anger, awww. I want to hug both of them. Okay, I would look messy with all that blood and Kargo would eat me but still XD I feel there might be more Kargo know about him though? He repeated the demon thing more than once...is it because the spirit Rogios tribe encountered? Might it be not "someone" angered that spirit but Rogio himself, which is why he was full of blood and he told Kargo about that? Or is it just cause he is so deeply wounded about Rogios betrayal that he cant think straight and don't want to blame Roamer for the split-up cause he views him through they eyes of love? Aka "YOU are perfect, YOU cant do wrong"? I think often people can't imagine how deeply betrayal hurts, especially in a life and death situation. Just imagine you are in a country that is really bad, females have no rights there and are just used for kids and nothing more (we do have those) and then you want to flee, not only you yourself, but you want to free as much as possible, which Kargo did, he risked his life for the innocent, female and male alike, when he just could have fled himself waaay more easily. And then there is your close friend- maybe your best friend, because from the conversation these two had, they had a close bond, and Kargo also tried to help Rogio to see in what kind of relationship he was, he cared enough for him to want him out, to tell him the truth even when Rogio didn't want to hear it and simply couldn't, being so much in love he couldn't think straight. Still, friends who do that are great friends. And then this very friend you have, you care about turns you back on you for a guy who is very much involved in the countries politics and even make them possible. Just a month later also your brother betrays you. What does that to a person? It makes them either broken for life...or it makes them angry. Very angry to a point they can't help. Rogio was blinded with love and git excused, so Kargo might be granted the same, cause both had people suffer because of them, but couldn't do anything about it. Then the very same person saved you and you saved him (remember Kargo was the one that thought Ranach might kill him, so they are kind of even when it comes to that) and you still carry that pain but try to move on, just for your mate to brought up and then be together with the person that already once betrayed you for love. Could I forgive Rogio? Not so easy and not like that. I understand Kargo here. I also though understand Rogio cause his position is very difficult too. He KNOWS he fucked up, hence why he kind of...didn't fight it now, cause he thinks he deserved it and surely also refused Roamers care because of it. He KNOWS he did wrong to him, he KNOWS he was a traitor but what should he do, the only thing he could do would be to split up with Roamer (from his point of view, I mean) but that's about it, cause he is right, he can't go back and changed it. Now they have to ask themselves if they want to give up that old pain, if they will start anew together, as the close friends they used to be. it would be a long path but maybe one worth going. Good job Kique, cause while people claim sides (bad Rogio, Kargo is waaay gone!), I think you really show it as a grey situation, neither is right or wrong, they just have to find common ground again, all of them, cause out there is the true enemy.

Kuni

Kargo u better just be throwing that stick!

No death, too bad 83 They shall use Kargo to destroy Ranach and Avanti. Like, "if you don't want for us giving you to the capital, you will have to kill Ranach and his beast." It will be a piece of cake for Kargo the destroyer! He can kill anything or anyone. No badass scars for Kargo like Jahla had when she was slapped.

Kitty

My thoughts exactly. So this had to happen so Roamer would finally really talk and LISTEN to Kargo! He could've gone after Rogio after all and I'm glad he didn't. Sure Kargo didn't make it easy for Roamer, especially at Midnightgarde, but all Roamer did was looking down on him like Kargo had no reason behind his words, no reason to be angry and just left him standing there. Twice. So I'm glad he finally tries to talk things through with Kargo as it seems.

Yami

The Roamer bitch slap and Olive the Branch is the best memes, pass it on.

Spiritstrike

Or someone seeks her out to save him from himself.

Larthan

I recall from when Kargo was teaching Roamer about the spirits that he mentioned a sapphire elk goddess who brought people serenity and peace... (page 106) maybe Kargo will seek out this goddess in order to get help...

harmony

I'm sorry xD but oml wtf x'DI love how Roamer just botch bitch slapped Kargo I shouldnt be laughing ... XD

WolfieYote

I.....almost appreciate Roamer smacking some sense into Kargo. Literally. Despite being hurt and confused, violence is never, ever the answer and he needed to find a more constructive outlet from the beginning. Maybe a good whack will do him some good.

ch00ky

Bet he will hit roamer then leave the territory

So... I'm getting a flashback to one of the earliest pages of Home. Where Kargo smacked Roamer in the head with a rock. I'm getting the same vibes here. As a few others have pointed out, we don't have all the puzzle pieces together about Kargo and Rogio's past. Were they lovers and mates before? Did Rogio leave Kargo for Ranach in hopes of becoming higher up in the tribe? Did Rogio sense this brutality from the beginning in Kargo and didn't want any part of it? I don't know. There are so many unanswered questions. Another point that I find interesting is... Kargo has referred to Rogio as a "demon." Not just once, but a couple of times. Why does he use that term to describe Rogio? Is that just Aedra's dialect to refer to someone who is bad...or is there meaning behind that? The last page... I don't believe any one mentioned it ( I will look back to confirm lol) Rogio had tears in his eyes. I have never tried to cry on demand. Rogio's responses to everything (i.e. him not fighting back, his tearing up, his actual agreement to Kargo's words) makes me feel that he is being genuine. There will always be a special place in my heart for Roamer... I have loved him since I first met him at the end of Asmundr. I think it's because I can see so much of my own personality reflected in his character. Roamer has made mistakes. Mistakes that have had dire consequences. If he had talked to Kargo when Kargo wanted to, maybe none of this would have happened. If he hadn't shut Kargo out so quickly when he found out about Ronja, the story would have been completely different. If Roamer had not fallen in that hole in the beginning, the story as we all know it would be drastically different. I love that no one character is one-dimensional. That is great story telling and story development. I applaud you Kique, for making a comic that actually makes others FEEL real emotions.

Kinder

I hope he breaks his teeth on that stick. Maybe then he won't be trying to rip people's throats out LMAO!

Peentz

I agree, but to an extent based on what ive seen, Rogio helped lore the females in and It think thats what hes refering to? Rogio obviously feels guilt, but I thing Kargonis making a link based on relationships. I obviously dont know whats goint though the head, but paranoia and lack of up front perspective is making it seem like Rogio had all the choices in the world to do whatche did. This whole thing is hella scaru

AmnesiaMoons

Okay so LOL at the massive bitch slap Roamer gave Kargo - I actually enjoyed seeing that - I'm not a Roamer fan but holy smokes was that hilarious and....needed? XD That look on Rogio - Honestly I'm surprised he got up and walked away, cuz let's be real if Kargo would have wanted to kill him, he WOULD have. He's ended lives so fast and jarred us with it in the process so hard, it'd make our ancestors dizzy. So he was holding back, and we all can say that with ease. That look on Rogios face though, the silence the....everything about him, just wow. I mean, I hope things will eventually look up for these two boys, even if I don't really like them per say - No one deserves to be dealing with what they're dealing with. And for that branch - that's a much better object to take your frustrations out on Kargo....less you're planning on hitting someone with it, then that's a no go.... Beautiful page as always!

Thalidan

I'll say here what I said on Discord. I am glad to see that he doesn't blame Roamer I figured he didn't but it was nice to see Kargo saying that. He still has a right to blame Rogio. If Kargo knew Rogio had seen them from the bushes that night I bet he'd be even more furious if that's even possible. And even if Roamer can make his own choices on who he gets with I'm glad he acknowledged that it wasn't right either for Rogio to get with him after seven days had passed with their breakup. Just like Kargo my anger is with Rogio when it comes to someone taking your ex. He went too far with attacking Rogio but the anger is very much understandable and justifiable.

I wouldn’t have apologized to kargo, he needs to be go clean off on. It’s not right for him to keep taking out his rage like this. He’s need to be snapped at, snarled at bit on so he can wake up. I also would’ve went with rogio made sure he’d be ok first then handled kargo. He should get thrown out after this, he is causing more issues for the tribe like they dnt have enough

Jasiri

Makes me really wonder exactly what happened between Rogio and Kargo. Their interactions before the first breakout was very vaguely touched upon. What kind of bond did they once have?

Foxy

Sorry about the typos. I cant type for the life of me lmao

AmnesiaMoons

I don't know...I don't. This is hard to take in. As someone who loves someone unconditonally, Kargos comments make it kinda hard? Yeah, harming Rogio(dont even get me started, you can tell hes done and broken from all this. Silence is a huge sigh of numbness), was wrong, but hes harming out of grief and fear. He still loves Roamer obviously and to see this, he just wants to abolish that harm. Is it right? Absolutely not! This is heavy to me personally. Someone broke my heart recently and those who have or are also dealing with grief...please, try and reach out. I too have been in Kargos uh...paws? I lashed out and snapped at anyone who tried to belittle or so I thought "use" someone I loved, despite how tbeyvtreated me personally. While this may not ve intentional, Kique, I just want to say well done. Kargo is lost, just and is going after anyone in fear and isolation. Hes scared, hes confused and hurt. It doesnt excuse his behavior, but I definitely been there. Maybe I dont like him because I AM bim in a sense. Its scary being in live and thinking that that person hates you, depises you and chose aomeone else. Me personay, its more of a "I hope hes living a good life and I will personay hrt anyone who hurts him". I do t know...Seing this page, Kargo is lost in a world of fear and greyness. He LOST his everything. His hope, his love...Something that gave his life worth living. This kinda gurta. Now Rogio? Damn...Iknow that look. I dont mean to vent per say, but seeing that on someone else, depite how "fake" this world is, I know it. I feel I deserve the punishment, the beatings because of all my past doings and while I obviousky need to face the consequences, it leaves you broken. Why are people still defending me, you know? I still feel iffy on both of them, but as someone sho has dealt with so much on a personal level, I only dislike them because I dont like facing the truth in this sense. Its so hard to explain. Youre in this void and you dont know what else to do other than try, and when it fwels its not enough, you break and loose control. Trauma is the worst ajd a lot of time, you arent even human. You are in this kind of...Void? Space of endless hurt? Depression, ptsd...Yhese two. I only gate them because they are me. This is actually terrifying for me. Well done Kique. I hope they find the strength to fight. The lostlessness in Kargos eyes...Jfc...I know he may be beyond helo, but I hope he finds help and faith in Ferah once again. I can keep ranting, but this is so heartbreaking. Thank yoy if you read this far. Im just in shock

AmnesiaMoons

Nice son-of-a-bitch slap on panel 3, there.

Corvin

At least it finally seems like Kargo and Roamer will get their much needed talk since Roamer just brushed Kargo off when he wanted to talk the time he showed up at their tent. Also I feel like only now does Roamer understand how much Kargo is hurting from the whole breakup from the way he acted out and took it out on Rogio. Doesn't excuse his actions, of course, but I don't think Roamer fully understood the effect of the breakup on Kargo before until now as Roamer moved on so fast in comparison.

Nippy

I'm anxious to see if they will try to cover for Kargo on this...I hope not. I mean he attacked a baron. The line has to be drawn somewhere.

Roamer jumps away, "See? I've grown and changed and learned, why can't you do the same and USE YOUR WORDS?!"

Larthan

EPIC SLAP!!!

Baseballfan2414

Kargo... RANACH is the one who lures people... not Rogio...

Tora Collita

Kargo... what are you doing with that? 😭

Skybird

😳 ... It’s about to get reaaaall . Kargo you should be going after Ranach with this rage and not Rogio... I wonder if he is going to use that branch to knock some sense into Roamer or just biting it to help put his rage somewhere else. 🧐
