| Sarda makes a strange pose with a funny face... | |
| Black Mage | So, you said something about doing something, but all I see is a crazy omnipotent old man making a face. |
| Sarda | Silence! This is the face of magic! How else should one look when re-working the mechanisms of reality? |
| Black Mage | I aim for a bad ass look, m'self. |
| Thief | That's what that is? |
| Black Mage | What do you mean? |
| Red Mage | It looks like you have gas. |
| Black Mage | Oh, it does not! |
| Red Mage | Okay. |
| Thief | No, yeah. You're right. |
| Black Mage | Bah, these chowder heads wouldn't know bad ass if it kneecapped them (aside) And besides, all the rich food we eat on the road. Who wouldn't be a little gassy, that's what I want to know! |
| Black Mage | (looking at Fighter) What are you lookin' at? |
| Fighter | Don't worry, Black Mage. I think you look cool when you do magic. |
| Black Mage | Well hot dog. |
Trivia[]
- The title of the comic is a possible reference to Link: The Faces of Evil, a game from a trilogy of Philips CD-i games that had a bad reputation for many reasons.
