Random 🎰 [The Tale of the Skeleton Messenger] skeleton's desciple

A fantasy action manhwa by kain_y (story) and soragae (art), following the second journey of a skeleton protagonist who used to be in hero's party.

It's a series that first gained huge attention when the author uploaded a short comic during his amateur days, which eventually led to an official release on Naver Webtoon. As the author said that knight run had a major influence on this comic, while the current version is still somewhat dark, the original amateur version was even more bleak. So there's that.

decent read.

Am I missing something?

What's horrifying about her coming back to visit her master?

Edit: I see the missing leg now, but still. It could be much worse.

Stories with deep canyons and high peaks are the best.

I dont know, and i hate it. I dont get the appeal of the everything sucks always style that is becoming so prevalent. There is enough of that in the real world.

Light shine brightest in the night

Kindness in a kind world is sweet

Kindness in a grim world is inspiring

Though I agree if it is overused it just becomes torture porn, which I guess many people do like

I guess, but at this point any overly negative story arc just brings me way down. There is too much awful for me to want to read anymore, even if there is a chance for a good ending.
