| 1 | ''[[http://www.epidigm.net/arcadia Even in Arcadia]]'' is a fantasy webcomic by Anise Shaw. The comic begins with Kendrion Lochdale traveling to see Master Odai, an Emerged in Niyam, a foreign country to him. Through Kendrion we are introduced to Odai's apprentice, Laelen, with whom he shares a hometown. Laelen is under stress because she is the first foreign apprentice to an Emerged and many native Fae treat her with contempt and racism. |

| 6 | !Tropes: |
| 7 | * TheBartender: Kendrion spends time in the first chapter [[http://epidigm.net/arcadia/2011/05/17/the-sojourner-page-15/ pouring his rejected heart out]] to a barmaid who ends up [[http://epidigm.net/arcadia/2011/05/31/the-sojourner-page-17/ giving him advice.]] |
| 8 | * FantasticRacism: Laelen is subject to this in almost [[http://epidigm.net/arcadia/2011/06/14/the-sojourner-page-19/ every scene]] [[http://epidigm.net/arcadia/2011/07/12/the-sojourner-page-23/ dealing with a Fae]] [[http://epidigm.net/arcadia/2011/08/02/the-sojourner-page-26/ who is not Odai]]. |
| 9 | * FantasyCounterpartCulture: The author [[http://epidigm.net/arcadia/2011/04/04/an-interview-with-anise/ explicitly states]] that the story is an allegory of 19th Century China and their relationship with British Imperialists. |
| 10 | * FunctionalMagic: All magic shown so far in the story is this, and Emergence seems to be almost like a type of [[http://epidigm.net/arcadia/2011/05/03/the-sojourner-page-13/ magic neurology]]. |
| 11 | * RetiredBadass and OldMaster are very apt descriptions of Master Odai. |
