#poor monk

A short comic based on Prototype and Nemuri-chan (Catnap)

Turkeycock Lane in Rye, East Sussex. Local legend says this narrow passageway is haunted by the ghost of a monk, who had been walled up alive in the brick- for the sin of falling in love with a local girl.

This was presumed to be fiction until part of the wall was demolished in WWII. When brick repairs were done the skeletal remains of a man were found.

Now this is something I read in local Rye history lore (because I am obsessed with Rye) but I cannot vouch for the truth of it. I did not see those skeletal remains, although I wish that I had.

Shen Wu is the closest to what I imagine a demonic sect leader is like that I've ever read about. True evil but within reasons and clever, otherwise he'd get deposed a long time ago.

Gu Zhao is the de facto leader of the good side. He's such a politician with his saint-like facade that is very opposite to his real personality.

Pei Wuji, Shen Wu's left hand man who betrayed him and nearly cost him his life. The jumble up of mixed feelings this man has for Shen Wu I can't even begin to describe.

That one monk ML who hasn't made a single appearance after That Scene, I'd have forgotten him already had Shen Wu not think of him every other page lol. I'm sorry I still can't remember his name.

The MacGuffin everyone wants here is this acclaimed scripture rumoured to make anyone who studies it to be the best cultivator in the land. Again?!
