Thinking that there was a shop owner that was part horse and had a boyfriend way back in the story. I believe that this is her and the other guy is her boyfriend helping Anne.
Huh, that would make sense actually. Wasn’t it that the shop was on some sort of magic temporal distortion or something that caused her change? Maybe that protected them somewhat and allowed them to keep their identity?
Not quite. It was the Mythos Virus which she was never cured of.
It was a combination of the mythos irus and her proximity to the portal. The virus set her form to human (which is a mythical creature in that world) and the cure “reset” her to a non human form which had become her default.

The Wotch flees the scene,
With a mysterious saviour,
And she’s awfully keen,
He explains his behaviour.
Anne has so many queries,
No doubt, do we all.
Whilst I’ve my own theories,
Their foundations may fall.
Before answers abound,
Before we’ve time to ask why,
A new ally is found,
On winged hooves she’ll fly.
🙂
Heh. I don’t get the feeling a sphinx will let annie fly on her.
Danger treads before you,
While oblivion creeps behind.
Your power is your weakness,
An opponent your equal kind.
Answer me these riddles three, and you shall yet know the meaning of my mischief.
I am the child of fire, son of frost
Blood brother of the one eye.
Bound by the entrails of my murdered son
My faithless children signal the end.
Uncle of the storm, brother of madness
The impossible is my divine trade.
Who am I?
I ride from the east and die on the cross,
My western journey across the heavens.
Son of the sky and banished thought,
my gifts are poetry and healing.
With a bow in my hand and sister behind me
the serpent relays my prophesy.
Who am I?
…………and I’m drawing a blank to explain a riddle where two gods team up to steal chaos energy from the wotch. Eh.
Two four six oh one?
Your second riddle described Apollo, not Hermes.
Hermes is the messenger. Guardian of travelers and merchants.
Stole cattle from his brother when just a baby. Gave his brother the lyre and let him take credit for music.
Right. Comic moves at a pace I forget. Thanks.
I hate to criticize the artist, especially since we went so long without one here. But the last couple of pages have kind of displayed to me why I’m not a fan of the art style. Specifically you had this character show up, all buff and bad-@$$ and such, only for the first appearance of his face to show the most ridiculous expression that undercut any seriousness the character had. Again with this panel, the guy’s face just has such a weird, derpy look on it, it makes it hard to take him seriously.
Hopefully in time I’ll get used to this. Still, honestly, it’s facial designs and expressions that have really bothered me under the new artist. I don’t expect, or ask, that he change his style or anything. I guess I’m just voicing what is bugging me right now.
I kinda think that’s intentional. I don’t think he wants to be taken seriously.
Yeah, that panel 3 made me wonder if she had been transformed. Very…odd.
I feel like we’re supposed to recognize her, but I can’t think who it could be…?
Also, where the heck did she get those pants.
Who says she’s wearing pants?
I actually like the artwork quite a bit. I just wish that the posts were more frequent. One of the reasons that The Wotch became one of my favorite strips was due to the consistent postings.
although we cannot see it i am going with a half sphinx here where the lower part is a lion.
for all you readers in the dark, to whom our mystery guests might be. a clue I give to thee.
Robin thought it best to change the colours of these characters to retain some measure of suspense.
Thus ends my clue… what… you didn’t think I was going to make it obvious did you?
Our store counter centaur and her other half.
Been awhile since I’ve read Accidental Centaur
So our store counter Centaur is now one of the incarnations of the harpies? And her boyfriend is now classic Thor?
Or it’s our werewolf and werecat.
I do hope that’s not a Grecian Sphinx.
Seems likely since the guy advised Anne to be careful what she said.
