   aah, welcome back:-) hmm, those hobbits speak with 3 voices? looks like english, but 3 sentences at once garbles the message.

   dude on the left is looking for his offspring? “stiffneck”?
   Lady on the right is desperate? “slavery” or “servery”?

   Looks like they were asking for help. And yes, they do speak with three voices because they have three throats. Percy made that quite clear when they boarded the “soul train.”

   I think the guy on the left said “What. Help us find offspring, hey? / am look like stiffneck.” The one on the right, I think, said “Oh please / very desperate/ help us!” Although there are some things I can’t make out.

   And the glowy, rising thing in the background that looks like a spaceship lifting off is what?

   I dunno, someone on the last comic said that was the Orbs of Rwahle.

   nah, its a ship. and maybe it’s not three seperate sentences, but one said through three thoarts. so it would say” what does help look like stiffneck offspring, hey” and i can’t make heads or tails of the second. it looks like slavery and server mixed, then please with something that ends in ed, so it looks like pleaseed(yes with double e) and desperate, with something, and help on

   Yeah, the sentences are overlaid on each other at different levels in the speech bubble, and if you focus your eyes right you can make out each layer. It’s difficult, though, when the words are right on top of each other. I hope Mr. Chen doesn’t have us figuring out hobbit speak too often. XD
