I forgot what Rahdan's rune does because I had no use of that system, but google says that it increases health, stamina, and FP. Looks like Leonard might be more tanky than he looks.
Also, I love the fact we are also getting the dead or EaW Grover in here. Him having a Australian slash bri'ish accent is interesting.
So happy to see the chapter. It was nice to see Leonard learn some staff fighting fir this fight and love the contrast between his wild yet effective style against Flare Burst’s elegant staff fighting. The idea of using enchanted clothing to even the fight against her magic was a great idea and I loved that Flare is containing the arena with magic to go all out. Out of curiosity, is Flare’s spell at the end based on Domain Expansions from Jujutsu Kaisen?
11764940 One thing I wish they incorporated into Radahn’s Rune—even though it exists in lore—is what’s basically a built-in “Fire Cleanse Me” incantation passive effect.
Starscourge’s rune somewhat resisted Malenia’s Scarlet Rot as fire is its weakness, which is one of the rune’s greatest traits, evidenced by its fiery appearance. It’s arguably why Radahn was still sane enough to hold the stars in place and prevent himself from crushing Leonard—even protecting him during big guy’s boss fight—despite the Rot-induced madness.
As for Grover, the griffons have some Brit/Australian traits in their social structure, so I thought giving some of them such dialect would be fitting. Heck, from what I found, one of their official lands is called the Griffish Isles, a play on words of British Isles, which is just north of Griffinstone.
11765046 Yup! Domain Expansion did influence her spell, but not an exact copy of the real thing, of course. They’re different, but you can definitely spot the reference.
Leonard vanishes from beneath the kirin via a burst of golden magic energy and reappears with another burst next to his staff.
Radagon's golden teleportation?! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! I hated how he would teleport and disappear and reappear right where he started from! It scared me! This made my day!
11765228 Hangaku's bow, Leonard's teleportation, and many other things to come----all nudging at Elden Ring. And it's all with a purpose and not just for the sake of doing so.
Wow, she's got over 200 years of experience/etc/etc over him yet feels him being able to use magic is not fair, should he have had his hooves bound before the fight as well?
To state the obvious things are definitely heating up.
Leonard definitely has the pride of the red manes, I wish my clothes could let me teleport
I hope in drawing on the runes power that Radahn takes notice. These two are strong apart, but I want to see them reunite and fight together.

Teleporting underwear and socks that grant me flight. 👍

I’ve got just the thing in mind, too.
The reunion will certainly be a spectacle.

Will the upcoming chapter be longer? Seems like it’s taking a while to finish, so hopefully it means we’ll see more action scenes.

It definitely will! 👍 Some real life stuff played a part, but the chapter is definitely a larger one.
