I just used the first simple name like Bob that came to mind for the beholder. Hence me calling him Paul. I don’t know what Rich actually called that particular beholder, if anything.
I mean really, how hard is it for one ruler to ask for peaceful passage through another ruler’s territory, right? If the other ruler doesn’t grant *peaceful* passage, I’m sure there are alternatives available. That’s what diplomacy is all about.
😛
As for the mispronunciation…I think being eyes-to-eyes with a beholder would give anyone (that’s not another beholder or someone from another plane) pause.
I am thinking that he should not be worrying about what is coming out his mouth, but what is coming out the other end. Did this guard pack extra underwear?
Turns out these caverns are also infested with trolls. I think I spent too much time admiring the view in panel #1 there before I found out it was Wolf. [ CONFLICTED FEELING INTENSIFIES ]
Also:
Say, is that a beholder in your pocket, or are you just mad to see me ..?

Only one thing to say here:

Not shown: the beholder saying "I’m Batman".
"Troglodyte, meet Paul. He’s our chief troubleshooter… You’re not trouble, are you?"
Paul? Who is Paul? Has he been introduced before? This is not Bob as he is trying to figure out how get Gwen. Maybe Bob Jr, grown up.

And no, we saw Bob2 with Glon’s gang.

I believe it was, Constantinople Theodopolopodous, or Theo for short 😀
We used to call him that. Nowadays we call him Isty, short for Istanbul. 😀
Really? Why did Constantinople get the works?
Didn’t that start out as "TIM-BUCK-TOO"?
@Rich
Come on, you know that’s none of your business… unless you’re part Turkish. 😉
That’s gotta be one of the smartest trogs in existence…
…and he still mis-spelled (mis-pronounced?) a word!
Wouldn’t you stutter if an angry beholder was staring you down?
"Dude, we’re being *polite*. Would you like us to be *impolite* instead?"

Me, I’m letting it slide.

If that Troglodyte had any balls, they’d have shrunk to the size of peanuts on spotting that big ball!
"Talk softly, and ‘carry’ a big Beholder."
Why would they talk at all? They are evil…
No one takes evil serious anymore…
You can get farther with a kind word and a Beholder than you can with just a kind word
I love that both sides of the geographic divide have the same go-to insult for the others.
t!
Do you recognize death by Beholder? Oh, you do! We’ll see your chief now.
Also known as "giving him the eye!"
It’s hard to see things eye-to-eye with a beholder…There are very few species that can do that without being outnumbered.
Typo, tlak instead of talk.
Tlakking is a well known word. It means when a Troglodyte puckers up to kiss some… um…
Sure, buddy, go "tlak" to your chief. :^)
I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt, that he’s just startled and messed his speech up.
Probably messed his pants up too.
