I just remembered a question that I had on an earlier page and then forgot as soon as I opened the comments...

Is Sev illiterate? I may have missed something that would make it obvious he isn't, but I just thought about "Missing the Point" where he apparently didn't get the Loa in Loa's Forest no matter how much Jonan pointed. On top of that, Tareth always reads his messages out loud. I can understand why poor Sev might be unable to read, since he lives in a hole with nothing but a loincloth, you know...? Sort of like a caveman. Not to mention how he carves strange and incomprehensible symbols into things.

Some people have speculated as much in the comments! :") The comic hasn't really said definitively one way or another.

I like how you covered over the fact that you aren't going to tell me. /snicker

Aw, I always do that! c: A lot of times I don't like to tell people if their theories are right or wrong, even if they're not about important things! I actually wrote a small post about why I don't, but mostly it's just that I want to let you guys get to know the characters through the story rather than barging in and explaining everything. ;u; That kinda defeats the purpose of telling it as a story! Besides, it's way cooler to see what you guys think!

(This is the same reason I stubbornly don't refer to characters by name until their name has been revealed in the comic, haha)

lol Don't worry, I know exactly what you're trying to do! Besides, it would be kinda lame if you spoiled your OWN COMIC because of theories in the comments, yeah? lololol
