I seem to have lost track of the story
 

Why do our valient anti-heroes covet the earth orb so? I tried looking back, but geeze the jokes go on a long time.

Thief's dad, King Elf, says they need to reclaim the Earth Orb for Elf Land to stop the Rot that is slowly turning Elf Land into a wasteland--possibly due to Astos's intervention before suffering from terminal punicide--but the Dwarves have it and apparently it's something the Elves and Dwarves have feuded about for hundreds, perhaps thousands, of years. Only it turns out that the Dwarves don't have the Orb. Dun Dun DUNNNN.

I get the feeling that they'll say that it was swiped/and or moved during a battle and they either cannot remember where they put it, or couldn't find who took it.

Then again, I already guessed right one comic, so I might be wrong.

I say it's the vampire. It's gotta be the vampire. It'll totally fit.

i have an idea of whats going to happen next, but thats just because brian told me.

um if you have an idea of whats going to happen... why dont u give us a hint.a BIG hint.

I hope it's the vampire... I'd like to see a lot of cheesy vampire jokes.

Curse you Viper, teasing us like that... Brian's usually at least somewhat subtle about it.

Oh yeah,that's why. Thanks guys!

I can't imagine clevenger avoiding the vampire, I seem to recall him writing at some point that all the points of the actual game would be addressed by the comic, but I may be wrong. Or drunk. Or Both.

Yet I am curious how their conflict with the dwarves will tie in with the canal being made. I expect some mass destruction of a drawrven town by use of some good ol' TNT and a well placed hadoken.

If Brian is going to touch on every part of the game I think everyone is missing the most obvious place where the Earth Orb would be.

In the game the Vampire does have the orb he just gaurds the alter that relight's it. Who has the orbs? The Light Warriors of course! Our group may meet the true light warriors for the first time.
