Oh Teresa, you should know better than to sign anything from Urtica without checking for fine print.
You are forgetting Teresa that had Coriander’s champion “won” and Olivia’s chest was pierced, you’d still lose by default.
Always read what you are putting your name on.
Silly girl, you were never married, why would you need a divorce?
Well played
@Keldaria: As I recall, they were married for state purposes–but had to be church-married to consummate.
===
I’m thinking that Coriander had led the church to meddle in temporal affairs–and Urtica is seeking a balance of power kind of deal.
As long as the church behaves itself, no problem.
“Someone”
Next time, read the really really fine print
It probably says something about me that I am backing Urtica 100% on this.
…and also thinking that this is Teresa’s karma for having been a child molester as a man.
There’s no proof that she was though, Tiffany only insinuated it during a “disagreement they were having.
Ah. That explains why he was being unfriendly on the last page. I wondered why he wasn’t bantering back. Teresa, if it was important enough for you to summon Olivia, then it was important enough for you to tell the king your ally. He hates it when people withhold information. Don’t do that again.
So if a trickster gets tricked, how do we call the trickster’s trickster?
@Vorlonagent: That’s a bad faced lie. Terasa wasn’t a child molester, that was made abundantly clear.
I am unsure how to feel about this one hand Red Shadow is absolutley correct about the importance of the information. On the other hand how anyone could have perdicted Peonie’s actions are beyond me.
Remember that Peonie only took those actions after hearing from her father that there was no plan to deal with Coriander’s challenge. Had Teresa been open with the king, even if they hadn’t told Peonie about it, he could at least have said “trust us, we got this.” She’d have been pissed for not being told, but probably wouldn’t have volunteered. Which means Olivia would probably have won outright, thus keeping her “logical fallacy” a secret and preventing Coriander from using that particular attempt to wriggle off the hook. Also, the King would have quizzed Teresa thoroughly on all possible outcomes, been sure of his legal ground, and reacted quickly and decisively instead of waiting so long it that it put Typhan-Knee in a sacrifice-play.
Well, in truth, Teresa is a lot like most people when faced with a wall of print… Skim and/or lie and Say you read it then sign/hit “accept”.
And that’s how a Lot of folks get caught up in stuff they don’t like… Be it agreeing to stuff you Thought was just a divorce or finding out Apple/Microsoft now has rights to your first born… It’s all the same thing. X1
I don’t think Teresa is treacherous, nor that her evidence is unreliable.
But she goofed really badly by not sharing everything with Urtica.
I also think that if Urtica just tricked her into signing away rights on behalf of the Church, that he’s made an enemy.
I feel that contract won’t last much longer and this heated argument will lead to heated love making.
Concurring with Theresa erred in not sharing important info with Urtica.
But I’m rather surprised that the church confirmed her as its head–that she even has the power to sign away rights on its behalf.
I would not have voted to confirm her until her divorce with Urtica was finalized–and if she consummated the marriage, I definitely would not have confirmed her on conflict of interest grounds.
Not to mention getting the church leadership to accept such a drastic change of policy. Allow a woman to be a priest and spell-singer, maybe, especially if she used to be a man. Make her head of the church, in such sudden, turbulent circumstances? No, that’s rather pushing things.
50srefugee: who said they had a choice or a say in the matter? o_O
At what point is it said in the story that Teresa has been appointed as head of the Church?
Just an observation Not a critique but I do notice that the fancy trim on the side of her dress (under her arms) is missing in the final panel.
Excellent artwork. I am enjoying the “Royal Split up” very much.
no sex yet still screwed!
We may be screwed but apparently Teresa is not going to be.
@Cerulean Lion Oh she’s screwed all right, just not in the way she wants to be. On another note who else wants to bet that Urtica’s Michavelean style has made him more enemies then nessecary?
