1: The god’s massive, toothy, insecticide mouth looms down over Julia, the creature simply beyond scope continues away into the distance, spiny tail drawing waterfalls of blood from the boils in the sky.
Air’Asha: SPEAK
THY
NAME
2: Julia looks upwards, shocked and scared stiff for a moment.
3: She grits her teeth and pulls her hand back in a fist.
4: She yells into the sky.
Julia: My name is Julia King!
5: Past the looming, spiraling form of this bug god, we see the small figure of Julia.
Air’Asha: WHAT
DOST
THOU
DESIRE?
Julia: I desire… I demand… sovereignty!
My will! My power!
Guide me to be myself, under my own law and power!
To take what is mine!
Is Julia going to be the Sovereign? Sovereign over the Black Idol, maybe?

First thought was, “Oooooooo, fancy words!”
My second thought was, “HA, panel two!”
My third thought was, “YEAH, let’s do this, take back your life Julia!”
Which of course led to my fourth thought being, “Alright…. How can we make this blow up in our face?”
What what independence and sovereignty mean for Julia, coming from this different diety? Will she retain her canine form? Is she really getting her body and personality back, save for some damage to her mental health? Or will she be shackled and potentially altered, like Rhoda? Certainly worrying, but hey, Julia being Julia has gotten her this far. So, still rooting for her!
… Man, that has a brand new meaning, now that we know they’re “rooted” to TOWC…
The Giant Bug-thing- What Does Thou Desire?
Julia- Yay! Oh yes! I’d like a Large fry, a Whopper, some of those big cookie-things, a chocolate shake, a strawberry shake, and…
The Giant Bug-thing- Wha? Wha?No! What I meant was…..! Arrrg!
