The Epilogue: "Literally, your actual ass." - Page 22

Well I assume that's the ending of 8-Bit. I really loved the ride and been reading ever since I was a lil' kiddo about 5 years ago. 'I like swords' turned into my own catchphrases and infact every game I play I am all about the swords (in L4D2 I shoot fuckers who steal my katana.) Thank you for the most fun webcomic I have ever read and will now say my goodbye.
Warbot appears to inregular and HKYM I just couldn't get into it.
You might not really have gotten to know me, but that's because I am one of those silent watchers. Farewell Nuklearpower it was a long fun ride <3

I could have sworn at some point the Trickster God and Darko where shown to be in cahoots, but god knows I am far too lazy to ever look that up, so I'll simply concede the Gods and Avatars bit. As for the Enlightened Warrior thing, there are a lot of ways to destroy the world in just 8 panels, let alone a whole epilouge.

"Destroying the world in an absurdly short time-span" got old after the fifth time it was implied.

The Dark God's plan was to get Black Mage to overload himself with magic energy to become a portal for Chaos, Dr. Swordopolis' plan was to have Fighter kill Black Mage before that could happen.

Well, that's an interesting plot I never actually noticed the background to. Makes a lot of sense, however. Although it probably was addressed, what happened to the Mindflayer/C'thulu cult?

The failure to do so however, that horse stayed alive for years.

A member of them was seen in the background of the Epilogue, apparently dead.

Doesn't really explain the whole lot of them. Then again, the idea they all successfully killed themselves summoning another poorly named God sounds a likely/satisfactory plot line.

Weren't they slaughtered?

Twice?

They survived once. Cults are annoying like that. Although it is a fair point, they have been slaughtered a few times.

I never noticed it either. Didn't pay much attention, though. I'm actually curious now what exactly was ever said about the enlightened warrior prophecy; I remember it was mentioned at least during the class change and Sky Castle arcs, but not exactly what.

Pretty sure the cultists all died during the Sea Shrine arc, with the exception of the one in the epilogue, who was killed by Dr. Unne, who I can only assume has gone from linguist to calamari merchant (possibly working with Akbar, all things considered).

What I remember is Bahamut asking Fighter if he was the Enlightened Warrior, and that's about it.

Then once Bahamut was mentioned to Muffin, he replied something along the lines of "Bahamut was never a threat, he'll slumber until the Enlightened Warrior awakes him to usher in the end of days" or something such. then RM freaks out and goes to tell the rest they did something terrible.
