Panel 1

Celia, a sylph, flies through the air, talking on a cell phone.
Celia: No, I'm not being being paranoid.
Celia: No, Mom, I'm just saying I've got a bad feeling.
Celia: Well if I knew what it was ABOUT, it wouldn't be just a feeling, Mom.
Celia: Mom—no, Mom, Sigil Guarding is a very prestigous[sic] career for sylphs, OK? I'm not going to go back to school now.

Panel 2

Celia: Oh, Mom, I gotta go. There's someone here.
Celia: Love you. Love to Dad. OK, bye.
Sabine (off-panel below): Die, you stupid bird!
Big Green Bird (off-panel below): Squawwwk!

Panel 3

Sabine and Haley fly up towards Celia.
Haley: Oh, golly gosh, did it? That would have been SUCH a shame.

Vaarsuvius and Zz'dtri appear below them at the edge of the panel.

Sabine: Oh no, you didn't just go there, dyejob.
Haley: HEY, this hair color is all-natural!

Panel 7

Vaarsuvius flies up to Celia
Vaarsuvius: Sorry.
Sabine: Bitch.
Haley: Skank.

Panel 8

Celia: Maybe Mom is right. I should quit this job before—

Panel 9

Zz'dtri: Flesh to Stone.

Panel 10

Celia falls with a "woosh!", hitting the ground with a "THUNK!"

D&D Context[]

  • Flesh to Stone is a spell that turns another creature into stone if they fail their Fortitude Save. As a 6th level spell, this would make Zz'dtri at least 11th level - possibly higher than Vaarsuvius, who only recently demonstrated being 9th level.

Trivia[]

  • This is Celia's first appearance, although unnamed yet. Unlike the earth guardian, she is only petrified and not killed. The fate of the fire guardian is unknown, but presumed dead.
  • This is the second appearance of the Big Green Bird of the Air Sigil. It will appear only once more, in #532.
