Guest Comic 1
13 Apr 2016 · page 590 of 1306
Heyo, as I mentioned last week, I'm taking a quick break this week to work on a thing or two, and filling in for me is Moon Cabal of Astral Aves, with a couple of guest pages and a deadly (sort of) mystery for Nicola to solve! Go check out Astral Aves if you love witches, spirits, and impressively big hair.
I'll be moving these guest pages to the start of the chapter after we're done here, so they're not in the middle of a story, but will still be up for you guys to read!

Set after the current plot is over then - It must be after 1837 if there's a queen.
Well the previous King William IV was married, so his wife Adelaide was the queen consort between 1831-1837. Caroline of Brunswick, the wife of George VI, the king before William, died in 1821 though. So there is a 10 year period between 1821-1831where there was no queen in UK. Before Caroline there was also a 2 year period between 1818-1820 with no queen.
Of course, that Queen. Good thinking.
Panel three - I'm hearing Dun-dun-DUUUUUUNNNNN!!!!
Threatening people with their influence, pff.
It's a Mur-dahlia!
I was wondering what the author of Astralaves was up to.
Reminds me of one of the short stories in [Grantville Gazette VII](http://amzn.to/2drxsOg "http://amzn.to/2drxsOg") - except there it's murder most fowl - it's a dodo in a zoological garden in like 1635 - but no more the 1635 in our history books than this is the Victorian England there.
My finely tuned senses detect... an attempted palming of this idiocy off onto another detective. xD
Well then. All I could think of is an unsolved murder in the states. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wi...](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Dahlia "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Dahlia")
I love how her first response is 'I'll foist this bullshit off on someone who has time for it.' Harry or Mal&co, maybe?
Maybe she is, maybe he was responsible for this crime against botany!
Can't help but think of this:
