To be loved is never forgotten,
a fact Breel will soon remember.
A disaster grows until the hero shows
and Keene’s now the best contender.
Beautiful Breel’s losing the fight
but hanging on for every second.
With the others’ still to come through
the depth of bravery still to be reckoned.
It’s near the end now, in the grip
of a cold and forgotten terror;
the best thing to hope for now
is to hope optimism isn’t an error...

Oh, now I understand the thing's method of speech. It's talking in the third person, and refers to itself as "What is Forgotten" (I know I may seem dense, but I didn't pick up on that in the last page).

And it calls Breel "Remembered One." Hm, what might that mean?

This is absolutely nonsense and come out of nowhere, but I suddenly have this fanfic in my head that Breel and that zombie T-rex knew each other in life, perhaps die at the same time, but Breel is remembered and mourned by people who knew him, maybe even til present day (remembered one) , while the "forgotten" is well, forgotten, so it got jealous, eventually become that thing.

I know it's nonsense, but ya know XD

Compared to a lot of the other stuff we've been throwing at the wall just to see what sticks that's actually not a half-bad theory. Maybe in life the Forgotten tried to push Breel in front the train, and somehow they both ended up dying from it, but the Forgotten was punished for what he did?

I may or may not have lost the ability to comprehend what is being said anymore. I think that's the joke? It doesn't really have a face to express with so I can't really tell what it's trying to convey. Is it confusing itself? Is it talking to Breel? Does it even remember it has Breel? What's happening anymore? :?

The demon talks in third person. It prefer to itself as "that which is forgotten", and Breel as "the remembered one" because Breel isn't forgotten, not yet anyway. In the last comic strip Breel said that for something that represent nothing, it sure has a lot to talk about, so in this strip, it replies by basically saying:
"you (the remembered one) say that I (that which is forgotten) talk too much (boast), but you don't understand the goal (ends) of my speech, I'm showing you where all things end up eventually: to be forgotten, including you"

Ooooh, okay! That makes a lot more sense, thank you! :D
I couldn't tell if it was 3rd person, Second person, First person, or some weird back and forth of each. :oops:

Oh, thank you very much. I figured it out that it spoke in 3rd person, and also some parts, but I wasn't exactly sure, what the forgotten said. Thanks again :)

The question is: Do we WANT to see where all things end up eventually? :shock:

In hindsight, it feels like Rick wanted to foreshadow an event like that.

I'm almost always wrong about predicting the direction of the arc, but I am imagining Keene going all commando on this thing, for Breel's sake. He is wearing a nightcap, after all.
King looks an awful lot like my own Corgi. That's one reason why he's my favorite, but I also like his attitude.

Since he likes to sleep a lot, the amplification of his powers could mean they are over 9...

Neither here nor there, but on the third level of Dante's Inferno, the level where the Avaricious are punished, the demons also speak in baffle-gab.

Fourth circle, the demon's name is Plutus, and his line is "Papé Satàn, papé Satàn aleppe." Seems like a different kind of confusion.

Didn't count limbo, Argent. Point's valid as no one's quite sure what Plautus says, but we still haven't figured what devil-goat's on about yet. Regards.

In the end, being forgotten is about the only hope left to those consigned to the "very-not-unpleasant-place"in the afterworld, but they do seek to share their pain and despair with others to the degree they can articulate. Breel, who is "angelic" ain't buying the con so, despite the monster's monstrosity, it can't really harm the little guy.

But this is Rick's world, so who knows? Maybe, anesthetized by Tarot's droning lecture, the wretch collapses, everyone gets splattered with mana, and Peanut becomes Master of the Universe.

And thanks for bringing Seance's interpretation back to my attention, Cyb. Forgetting not just for Infernals. Regards.

Oh no, poor Breel (I said so also to quote him :P), the thing is getting hard... :| So, seems that The Forgotten is Breel's rival, there should be something in their past. Show him where all the things end forgotten? It sounds a threat... :? I don't want the cute weasel to be forgotten. :(
