First off, I think Lydia was unwrapping something at the beginning. Sorry about that.

This chapter forces me to do goblin voices for the first time. It hurt my throat a lot; they come out a little bit like the Foglios' Jaeger Monsters.

I've always liked that the goblins aren't exactly nice to each other sometimes, but they're clearly a family, and care about each other. It's an important detail. I also like that they assume the sun is a weapon installed in the sky just to vex them.

Let me know if you have any thoughts.
