* PaintingTheMedium: After the RashomonStyle split, certain panels [[http://tgchan.org/kusaba/quest/src/141152183460.png contain]] [[http://tgchan.org/kusaba/quest/src/141152165441.png differences]] between the [[http://tgchan.org/kusaba/quest/src/141152190003.png two]] [[http://tgchan.org/kusaba/quest/src/141152168229.png versions.]] [[WildMassGuessing It's theorized]] that this reflects the differences between the narrators' personal perceptions and reality.
Added DiffLines:
* RashomonStyle: For the (presumably) final act, the story is split into two threads; one continues to follow Polokoa as the viewpoint character, while the other follows [[spoiler:Rokolo]]. The two are updated simultaneously, allowing readers to pick one side or see both viewpoints on the story develop simultaneously. There are a few [[http://tgchan.org/kusaba/quest/src/141152183460.png subtle]] [[http://tgchan.org/kusaba/quest/src/141152165441.png differences]] between the two as well.
