I Went With "Omnifarious"

Is lamb a boy or a girl? Just wanna know

they are a god

Alright, since Madam Mel has goated me into revealing my extremely amateurish thoughts, here goes.

I've had my suspicions on how Narinder was able to get a hold of the Last Lamb, and how he was even able to bring it back to life in the first place. It comes with too many plotholes that, thankfully the game leaves open to interpretation so here are my theories and One I think Mrs @melled42 is gunning for.

The first Theory being that Shamura sent the last Lamb to Narinder either intentionally as a show to break Narinder's dream of returning and to accept his fate as being bound to Hell's limbo, or unintentionally as a last way to give Narinder a chance to free himself and repent for his actions of slaughtering unwillingly innocents and to punish himself for the actions he committed against his most favorite sibling. There are words Shamura uses that alludes to the idea that he may have purposely given Narinder the Lamb, the same way he gave Narinder Aym and Ba'al, probably due to how damaged his mind was and how he drifts in and out because of his brain damage. I can go more into this theory because its a personal one of mine and part of my headcanon

However, I believe Melled42 is going for my second theory and one I hope isn't the case (Game-Canonwise) but..... Narinder may have killed the Lamb himself, directly in order to get direct control of the creature's life, to will it for his own purpose. I came to this conclusion because Narinder's ultimate goal was to control Life AND Death, and he never fully achieved the goal, because his siblings stopped him before he could break such a fundamental law of nature. Death is only supposed to go 1 way, so for Narinder to even have the power to perverse such a Primordial Law means he had to have had a direct connection and influence over Lamb (in this case Ewen's) death, to control their aspect of Life and thus, create a creature not bound by the Laws and Limitations Narinder actively sought to break.

All this is to say, the theory is that Narinder intentionally killed Ewen himself to give him life that bounds Ewen to Narinder through the power of the Red Crown. This would explain why Lamb can detach its head and still remain alive and aware, retain all their powers and abilities without aging physically, while also exhibiting God-Like effects such as the black blood or ichor if you will, that leaks from a God's wounds. Lamb wasn't killed by the Headsmen, he was killed somehow stealthily through an act by Narinder himself.

Its extremely twisted, yet right up Narinder's alley. I'm against it personally but fuck it would fit if this is what Melled42 is going for. That the twisted mentality the two of them tend to feed into one another, the act that started all of this, was Narinder killing Lamb to claim their life and soul for himself, before his siblings could get the job done and ruin his plans. I like this, and HATE it because it creates a full circle moment that only adds to the selfish depravity of their natures as a whole, that due to the solitary existence both were forced to endure, the empty, meaningless deaths they were both part of and directly influenced with their actions, connects them both on an extremely primal level where only they and they alone, can understand stand each other completely.

I wanted to keep this grenade tucked away but Madam Mel asked so.... here it is. If I'm wrong, I fully accept it because even I see the cracks in my theory but damnit..... brain is going wild with ideas.

An explanation for the wound on Ewen's, my lamb's neck. I've had this headcannon since first seeing the bishops but it kind of took a life of its own

When you're a power hungry controlling monster but they're way too into it, even for you

patreons got this early

I like this. Always good to remind the fandom that their lamb isn't a hero or a victim. They've spread as much misery and pain as any other God. The story is about an innocent soul slowly becoming a monster and villain after all. Everyone you've killed, sacrificed, eaten, all blood on every player's hands.

woe be upon ye

Been here. Just wanna eat alone and in peace but some extrovert wants to adopt you for some strange reason.

Conjunction || #2-10

look at that crown. craving that drama. psychotic little shit I love it.

prev / first / next

These are pretty good choices. I will say I avoided cat because I wanted to pick creatures different from the current bishops. Since Narinder is already a cat, wanted to go a little bigger. Also avoided the Sloth cuz its a little too on the nose, ya know? lol But i do like these alot. Had to look up the Shrew and Bonobo. Pretty fitting.

In the Cotl Universe, if the 7 Deadly Sins were personified as animals, which 7 would you choose?

Think my picks would be

Pride - Lion

Greed - Crab

Lust - Rabbit

Gluttony - Pig

Envy - Dog

Wrath - Bull

Sloth - Koala

But I'm curious to hear the thoughts and ideas of others.

TL:DR - Fox is right and Ewen/Narinder will have to make a tough decision very soon

Alright gonna drop this here but don't got too much to add because someone else beat me to it and was so on point, I'm annoyed my lack of sleep made me slow on the follow-up.

But the one thing I'll add, at least from my perspective is this; I think the Fox is correct and Lamb fears this fact of sentient nature. In truth, their relationship with Narinder is extremely one-sided, especially from their point of view. Its warranted of course, considering what Ewen was forced to become, all in order to survive. Their concept of romance and a relationship is so warped and skewed that its no wonder they believe Affection Control = Love and Devotion.

The same could be said for Narinder because, all things considered, the guy is a God. His relationship with mortals isn't the same as someone of his own kind, on his own level so his relationship with Lamb is nearly as flawed in its own right. Considering he has something of a personal connection with Forneus, Aym and Ba'al, its safe to assume to some degree, he aware of what it means and how it feels to develop an emotional attachment. It seems that maturity is coming through his relationship with Lamb who is helping him return back to that mentality he had probably before his 1,000 year-long isolation that probably drove him to a deeper level of insanity before his siblings bound him.

Now cutting all this rambling aside, I say the Fox is right in that Ewen's relationship is one-sided because they're only acting in self-interest and fulfilling their own desires at the moment. They keep Narinder under their thumb and refuse to give him the truest opportunity to leave or choose between Power or Connection. By keeping the crown, they know they're stronger than Narinder and can force him to their will, whenever they want. They have all the control in the relationship, but that of course is not a relationship of love or devotion, and the Fox points this out, much to Ewen's dismay and fear.

I think (my belief of course), if Ewen wants to truly know if they are loved, they're going to have to offer Narinder a truly honest decision and follow through with it 100% no matter the outcome, with absolutely no expectations or demands. They need to willing put themselves in a completely vulnerable state and offer Narinder the Red Crown to see if Narinder will choose Power or Love and no matter what he picks, they have to abide by that decision absolutely. In many ways, humility and faith would be the ultimate test of their growth and connection as an Ascended Mortal and a Fallen God

Eh but this is me just rambling and if you think this is bad, should have seen the 9 page essay I wrote and was trying to trim down. >_> I got issues.... lots and lots of issues... but this is damn good shit from @melled42 and I've been foaming at the mouth, waiting for updates like a kid watching Saturday Morning Cartoons!

COTL narilamb comic

Changes part 1, part 2 tomorrow

(all along with wips and stuff a week early on patreon)

Looks like the lamb has a fox friend. we're reaching the last 3rd of these comics, lets gooooo

Lucifer and his daughter❤️‍🔥

Hmmm well you know what? There's a lot you could improve on and your wast-hahahahaha I couldn't even finish that thought. 🤣😂🤣😂

Seriously your art style is ideal in my mind and I can see the effort that goes into coloring and shading when it comes to many of the comics you've produced so far.

I'd say if there's anything to improve on, it would be some grammar stuff here and there. Might be good to let friends or your husband proofread it just to make sure before releasing it.

Otherwise as is, love your style, got a weakness for plump shortstacks and Absolute Territory is my Religon so keep on drawing what makes you happy and what catches your interest. 😁👍

Alright after the move, I'm think of doing some practice and style studies to improve. Try to do some every once and a while.

If you have something you think I could improve on or a style/piece of media you'd like to see me try to replicate, comment. Just be nice, I cry easy ;3;

If only they held back that smug look. Coulda gotten just a little bit further. But baby steps lol

Well well well, Nari. If it isn't the consequences of your own tsundere actions.

The Lamb just went "bet." and returned what was given, just not to extreme Narinder was ready for. He wasn't braced for what The Lamb had.

My writing and layout for comics isn't good- workin on getting better. : )

Know the Leotard Lamb (yeah I know its bunny suit but I'm a sucker for alteration) has been trending a lot lately, but was reminded that Mel did it first. She's a trend setter before her time. Praise.

Happy Easter to the narilamb fans

this might be the most bi thing i've ever drawn.

who's egg is that?
