I’m hoping the horn is not visible purely because Typhan-knee is looking down on Melan-knee from very high up in the saddle, and the unicorn’s head is bending very far down. Otherwise, a missing horn is a mortally dangerous condition for a unicorn.
Those dwarves were fast. And so was Melan-Knee. Why did he go out to meet his brother alone though? Isn’t MK some kind of Chieftain? Shouldn’t he have an escort of other hunters? I’m finding it hard to believe a barbarian tribe isn’t more security conscious.
I’ll have a fiver on him mistaking Neils for Typhan-Knee, seeing as he’s big and blond (although this will necessitate an unlikely helmet removal) and all, y’know for comedy purposes.
@Jmucchielo: In Barbarian/Primitive cultures generally the Chief is the strongest, fittest warrior (Might makes Right). To need a “security” escort would be a sign of weakness.
Makes sense – remember the talk earlier about Neils’ family being kidnapped? It’s highly likely that Melan and Typhan had different mothers. And, that one of them was, to use Game of Thrones parlance, a ‘salt wife’. As in sexual a-salt wife.
– I am still worried about where this storyline will go. I approve of mellankee’s badassness. Still hoping he does not get TGed. Exiern could really use an awesome male character. Even a love interest for Peonie.
– Nice job on the art on this one. Exiern is a great looking webcomic, but this particular page really looks like a lot of time was put into it.
– On the subject of Neils, the fact that we didn’t get to see his face makes me wonder if he is actually a much older man. Like when he told the story about his sister, that may have happened a very long time ago. She could be Tiff’s mother.

Well it looks like he didn’t know.
Called it! The fact that the hit was for Typhan-Knee kinda implied that he didn’t his brother is now a woman.
Of course, the questions now is, why does he want Typhan dead?
So did Mell somehow absorb Tiff’s Lost masculinity.
Hoo boy, here we go…
Penultimate panel: unicorn’s horn is missing.
Nice crotch shot.
What happened to the unicorn’s horn?
Well that is one way to tell your family you gone and got girlied. Not the most elegant way.
I’m waiting for the next page when Melan-Knee opens his arms wide for a hug and shouts, “Hey, bro!”.

Tiff and “elegant” don`t mix. Ever.

Ninja follow-up
Also, all those skulls, makes me think of this Mitchell and Webb sketch:

I think he might be a baddie(!)

This is going to be an interesting exchange…
Just by the way, FINALLY some fanservice for the women as well!
@Hokova I agree, got to love a big hot barbarian warrior 🙂
I’m guessing Half-brother. You don’t often get a light blond and a black haired kid from the same pairing.
Wait, did Typhan-knee ever say her given name? Or only just her “hunting name”?
@Mogster; Not that I can see.

Few thoughts.

Hokova, Freyja: I got my female fanservice when Denver showed up! 😉
(Hey, some of us dig geeks, what can I say?)
Teya: Well, no accounting for taste. -3-
Thank you for the beefcake. The beefcake : cheesecake ratio has been to skewed for a while.
