Now Ronja has to go after Vigr, to show she isn't playing favorites/that she only cares about her friends and just them. Rogio still has Roamer by his side, so now need for Ronja to stick around any further. Instead, she should talk with him and possible alter his plan a little bit. It's important that she listen to all her members, after all, without Vigr she wouldn't even know what Ranach has done and possibly would have had invited him back into the tribe out of pity.

I've held off on commenting on this page, due to how I'm unsure of how I feel about it at the present XD But here it goes. I've had a bit of a feeling of indifference when it comes to Rogio lately, and...I'm not sure why. I do however really like Vigr. As a character he has a lot of potential. And honestly I don't completely dismiss his plan; its a lot better plan than what everyone else has come up with (Cough; Ronja)...lol. But I feel; like a few other's have stated, that the way he presented it to Rogio, wasn't in a very good way. Not that I think he did it on purpose mind you - But coming from someone who likely can't fully comprehend the severity of the situation from Rogio's point of view, you can't really blame him to much. Its hard (if not impossible) to know what it feels like if you've never been through it before yourself. In this case - Mental - and dare I say it the potential of physical abuse as well. I think the plan itself has merit, just needs to be tweaked like other's have said previously. BUT - I do think Rogio could've dealt with it a tad better, in fact him lashing out at Vigr like he did is actually sorta out of character for him. He definitely has some demons to take care of that's for sure. But if I had the chance to rid myself and those I care about (Who've shown/proven they too care about me) of someone who's willing to do whatever it takes to cause serious harm if not death to them/me/us, then I would surely give it some serious consideration - I've been the victim of these sort of things myself, so I KNOW how hard it can be to face your demons, and your abuser. But sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do in order to be free of them in the long run. I am sure, that Rogio's outburst towards Vigr, was due to him being caught off guard and a direct result of being in the heat of the moment, so I hope that when he gets the chance to cool off - He'll seek out our boi Vigr and set things straight with him calmly. So they can be on the same team and page once again. Cuz its obvious that Vigr is feeling hurt right now. You can tell by the look on his face, that he's feeling a bit butthurt over Rogio's reaction to his plan and desire to contribute to the ridding of the scum we know as Ranach. Its clear Vigr isn't a fan of his, he's proven this time and time again (Ranach that is). I hope that Ronja will go talk to him as well. I'm not a fan of Vigr leaving like that, and not being chasened by at least someone to let him know that his ideas are not being thrown to the curb and will definitely like anyone else's ideas that may come to be, and not being considered, because I think that would do a lot of damage to his relationship with them. And I don't want that to happen. He's been through a lot like Rogio (mind you not quite as intense however) but he seems to have had a very different mindset than a lot of the other MT males, and we want him to stay a good guy and not a bitter one who leaves like other's have. Sorry for the wall of text, but I had to get this out. In the end, Rogio has reason to be so upitty but I hope he comes around, and tries to help maybe think of a better alternative, whilest possibly going with Vigr's plan but a altered version of it (Such as Scent etc) that would make it so he contributes, and utilizes Ranach's weakness and uses it against him to rid of him once and for all. Also I hope that I'm not the only who who's hoping that Ulfr comes around also, and apologizes and makes an attempt to be genuine and come back to the MT. He's such a cool dude, and I want so badly (Since the beginning) for him to be good and not bad XC

By the 7th panel I can feel that maybe Ronja agree with Vigr but hold up saying anything because of Roamer in the previous panel.

Viktor

Please, talk to Vigr, Ronja. Rogio is fine, Roamer is with him, just please go speak to Vigr.

DD

Perhaps Ranach would get a spark of hope that Rogio escaped from the ghouls and stone, as there would be no other way to be smelling a fresh scent of Rogio’s. I agree he’s a manipulative being, but we’ve seen how weak he is without Rogio and to even smell him might cause him to go into a frenzy.

Aub

I hope she goes to talk to Viggy and not just let him walk away feeling like this is still a one-sided society hhhhhhh

Gin

Also...To be fair...Ranach isnt exactly stupid. In fact, hes a master of manipulation in my opinion. So those saying they could use a rag...He might go crazy at first, but wouldn't he see it as a trap? He firmly believes Rogio is dead. He might not think right away, it's been too long for the scent to still be fresh, but idk. Someone needs to go talk to Vigr

AmnesiaMoons

And I also agree, I really hope Ronja now goes to talk to Vigr if she can find him. She's got to make sure he knows his voice can be heard too, and not just brushed aside. Maybe since he came up with the initial idea, talk with him about how they might be able to change it to work better for everyone involved.

Farvardin

I'm agree with this, something is wrong and they are all here : "Omg Rogio are you alright?" but they don't care about Vigr, like he is inexistant, he will not feel well in this tribe if nobody listen to him.

Akela74

Yea I get the feeling letting Vigr walk of like that is a big mistake. Ronje got Gogio's side of the story now go after Vigr. ---Looking at this From Vigr's point of view.--- I think Vigr didn't get even one chance to have a say or voice and opinion and the one time he's trying to help he gets blasted. Don't care how wrong the others think he is. It may not be the best plan but its sure to work and here he gets flamed for voicing an opinion. He's been a perfect little soldier, always does his job, keeps out of the way and follows orders. He's part of your tribe also Ronja! and pissedof af. Not taking the time to talk to him will not work in your favor.

Rubje

People concerned about what they're going to do now, easy. They're going to figure something out, the same way they would have had to figure something out if Rogio never went with Roamer and they still thought he was dead. There are other ways to go about this without sending someone out as bait for their abuser, who is obviously dealing with ptsd and deserves some damn sympathy, not "oh he should do it anyways!!!!", and I do agree with the modified plan idea. They could very easily make Ranach think he's going insane by using something of Rogio's to leave a scent trail without Rogio ever needing to leave the walls. I'm glad Ronja is on his side because it's so morally wrong to think Rogio should go through with this, after everything.

Farvardin

Firstly, I love how sympathetic Ronja's gaze is in the 7th panel. She's so beautiful. Also, great job at showing Rogio's distress. Secondly, argh, someone go talk to Vigr!!! Ronja really seems to only bother much interaction with the pack members she particularly likes. It's possible we don't see interaction with others because they're more minor characters, but i'd really love to see her try to connect individually with everyone. Vigr is probably going to go to his only perceived friend, Javo, and the two of them can't possibly be brewing up any positive thoughts, as we have only seen reluctance or griping from them, and getting shut down like that isn't good. I hope someone goes to smooth things over with him.

JackalHackal

Seriously? Good bye good plan, hello death...

Akela74

Rogio?

Akela74

Not to be a nit pick, but Roamer’s shoulder paint is missing in the fifth and sixth panel.

Spiritstrike

As i said in a different reply, i don't think it would be. Not raw as it is right now. Modified? Yes. But i am sure rogio would freeze and break down seeing ranach, unable to execute any type of plan they had and i think they all know that. He had a panic attack just at the IDEA of it. Imagine how little he could function if it became reality. I think the idea itself is great and i did suggest using rogio in a comment a few pages back however, not this way. I think all it would lead to is a broken rogio and thus a brokenhearted roamer. And the demise of them all perhaps.

ArtemistheArtist22

While i agree i also want to point out she should stand by her own morals. And if she puts a plan on someone as severly traumatised as rogio i am sure she realises it not only COULD go wrong but it WILL. I am pretty sure all rogio would do is freeze and break down when seeing ranach to be honest with you. Which would not only not work to their advantage but work to ranachs. A leader, while listening to all options and opinions, should stand by their own morals as i said and i am sure ronja is not up for sacrificing people. She wants everyone to come out of this alive and well. She realises with this plan, as it is right now non modified, it will lead to their demise or at least to rogios in the end. Much like captain america said "we do not trade lives". One life should always be important, and i am sure ronja does not agree with the sentiment of "oh send one man to his personal hell for all our benefit" or "what is one life against many".

ArtemistheArtist22

PLEASE do not let this be one of the instances of "oh i will now betray you all because you said no to this one thing" i like vigr and i think he has a lot of room for growth and i pray he is not going to be used in such a way. In other comics or movies this would totally happen but i pray Kique has other plans. I hope they talk to vigr or let fuss do that. Explain to him and the tribe that it is a good plan but not plausible due to not only the RISK but also rogios current state of trauma and ptsd. I hope they explain and communicate because i am so tired of seeing comics or movies have countless problems that simple honest communication could solve within seconds. They do not have to go into detail just remind everyone rogio was fed to the beasts because of ranach. Because he was in love with him and "made him weak". That will most likely be enough to get them to understand. I like the idea of still utilising this plan, but modified. With a scent rag of some sort to lure ranach into an ambush. Perhaps split up ranach and ulfr. I also fear ronja might consider using herself and the unborn pups as bait but i hope she realises ranach is too far down the rabbit hole at this point and ulfr only wants revenge on HER not the tribe.

ArtemistheArtist22

Perhaps they can still use Rogio, but not up close and personal with Ranach?? Perhaps somehow lure Ranach near the walls of the tribe and Rogio could be “guarding” with other dogs, and Ranach could see him up there and get distracted while an ambush takes place. But seeing as they aren’t positive where his location is, they might have to be clever in ways to lure him in. Maybe Rogio will realize the potential of the plan, and subside to helping? I get that it’s a very emotional and traumatizing thing for Rogio to even think about going through, but seeing the future scene sketch Kique just posted, something really tells me it’s Ranach pinning Rogio.

Aub

I feel as though it was serious, but they have powerful healing aides such as the bark and other remedies. That’s why he’s also wearing thin leather bandages, as the bark / remedies themselves couldn’t entirely heal more severe wounds! But it is good to see him walking!

Aub

He’s probably going give in saying it’s the only way wen everything else fails

Okay, Vigr's plan/suggestion is out in the open. Let's see how they can go from there. As as much of a good plan it could be, Rogio is simply not up for it. So hope for another plan with this plan of Vigr as base of some sort. As I tihnk that's what's Ronja's thinking in panel 7. And Roamer's concern for Rogio here, is clearly shown, as well as Ronja's. <3

Tora Collita

As long as Ronja doesn't try to persuade Rogio to do something that has sent him into what seems to be a panic attack at the mere *idea*, I'll be happy. This is a beautiful page, but heartbreaking as well. Definitely seems like Rogio has a strong case of PTSD.

Farvardin

As much as I feel bad...It can be a great plan. Personal feelings aside:(

AmnesiaMoons

Poor Ronja... As a proper leader, she has to consider all options, regardless of her personal feelings... And I think she realizes that.

Off topic, but glad to see that Roamer's wound wasn't too serious
