Is she just acting out of irritation, or has she really gone that nuts?

Oh! Now I see that King was wearing the Mark of the Bun back in Stable Girl, and now he's wearing the Scales of Justice...

Gwynn is certainly handling things not nearly as well as Her Majesty.

At least the violence tells us it's still Gwynn in there.

Just about as confused as the King at this point... is Gwynn nuts, simply bad at languages, or actually trying to warn the King of something involving him and Kron? Poor gal, Siphy got dropped into a hangover, but Gwynn got tossed naked into an affair. Wonder what Kron has been up to all this time, for example...

Still, she is at least in a time when bats are heavier and easy to access. Should make her feel a bit more at ease, at least. Also, I wonder if her current prison-keepers have been able to deal with her ability to pull blunt objects out of Virtual Pockets. :)

Aaaaand the city has the scariest bug infestation ever. So, is THAT where K'Z'K's been lurking in this time? Or just typical Pete ominous foreshadowing? Off to spec! :D

Hmmm. Is she crazy as an outhouse rat, or crazy like a fox? Only time and Pete will tell. Place yer bets now!

I'm thinking, like a Fox. How else would she keep Farahn' s hands off while still keeping her own hands on? I just hope "seasons" doesn't mean too terribly long. Poor Gwynn, now it's her turn to be lost lost for months!

I'm impressed. Pete took an extra day in order to invent a new language.

Either that, or an adjective suffered severe vowel blockage, and then chose to self destruct with honor - rather than ask for help from a mere preposition (H). Helping verbs are working to clear the mess, but the bits got everywhere. I can still see a few participles dangling from the chandelier.

But I do understand it - Gwynn is doing the same thing that Queen S. is doing. She has to learn the local language. Annnd she's not quite "there" yet. Maybe she is just not used to being so impotant.

Panel 5 - There is an additional P in 'Queen Spiphaniana' - but that's what happens when you have share a public restroom with a cargo ship full of sailors.

Panel 7 - "... she painted ..." is awkward and probably not necessary (its the sort of thing I would edit out) but I can see how it might help the narration.

Panel 9 - [Frowns with annoyance]

General Reaction:
I think this is a good tack for the story. Gwynn is adapting to the situation quite well. (I can't say how, because its spec since it hasn't been explicitly revealed yet) I am a tad disappointed, tho. I kinda thought that Gwynn could totally enjoy being a queen. She has no spectacles, so she can't tell if the king is good looking or not.

However, I had the random idea that it would be funny to see Soco missing his right hand in the last panel. You don't see it until the very last panel, and it could make clear that the King is not pleased with his progress.

I've seen those ASCii thingies, but I'm not going ref hunting. I think #3 is the Necromonger Conquest Icon.

Oh, there's another typo that I missed. Panel 4 - "How fairs" should be "How fares".

K-Z-K bug foreshadowing? Crazy Gwynn? Shia LeBeouf being executed for his insolence?

Best. Storyline. Ever.

No, the blind-as-bat eyes are in the present, in Gwynn's body. Siphy is wearing them. Gwynn-in-Siphy's-body doesn't need glasses.

It appears as if Gwynn has gone completely insane. And it makes me giggle like crazy! Although her boyfriend Shia Labeouf makes me suspect something hmmm.
