I still think it is monarch that gives the crown that power.
I wonder if they’re the ones who’ve been telling Victoria that since they were brought on. She says “I’m no an expert on magic, but,” when she first talks to Harry and Sid. Maybe it really is Dumbo’s Feather and they’re just desperate to hold onto their jobs and prestige.
The Crown only becomes active when the Queen is crowned. That’s the whole point of the coronation and why it takes place at The Anchor.
That makes perfect sense.
Monarchy brings respectability? Depends on the Royal…
Question is, are the twins freaking out because they did something to the crown, or just because they don’t know how to manage without their Super-Special High-Level connection to magic?
Things that probably also contribute to their mood are being nervous about appearing in public, almost not having a crown to present, and being punched in their faces and chased off by buggerups.
On a related note, Blake has a black eye and Bryony has a bruised nose.
Oh man, that’s right - Harry and Sid don’t know that these two just got punched in their faces and chased off by buggerups. The twins are probably desperate to avoid admitting it to anyone.
I feel like it could go any way with
a) The story about the crown being magic was a lie from the start,
b) The crown lost its power for some reason, or
c) This crown is a decoy.
Perhaps the problem is something Thea is doing?
Hahaha, can something be infused with tourism??? Such a fun spirit! xD What’s the closest mood to that? Wanderlust?
Interest, perhaps? To draw people’s attention?
What else is a monarchy for these days?
I agree with Gren.
But is being a sufficiently big mean jerk distinguishable from magic?
It’s looking more and more like these two cretinous peacocks mucked up the fancy hat somehow. Or lied about it.
…oh THAT’s gonna be interesting if my guess is correct 🤣
To Quote Sir Terry Pratchett — “It is the Thing and the Whole of the Thing”. It is the belief of the followers that makes the item Holy Magic. They see the Crown placed on the Head (or the butt on the dwaven bread), and It Is Real.
Nice to see the twins so dishevelled xD
If the magic surge has ebbed, does that mean the malforms are no longer visible?
Small point that has been brought up before, but bears repeating: Technically, she became “Her Majesty” the moment her uncle died.
After two weeks binge reading, I finally caught up. Can't believe I didn't know about this comic.
Miss Ashwin, please tell us: did the twin twits get those fancy wizard degrees at Widdershins due to nepotism and bribes paid by their parents?
Right now I’d believe Ben had to put himself through college, making his degree the result of 100% effort and hard work.
