4.0

So sorta confusing at times, and it's definitely incredibly fast paced, which does hurt the story in the long run, but I'm far too intrigued and invested to let up now. I need to know the history of the Mud Whale, and I need to know more about Lykos' and her kingdom (?). There's too much left unsaid that I can't move on without.

I do hope we get more "time" between events in the next volume, and that each character gets a throughout telling of their route in life, even briefly. I'd rather see that than another bloody attack with the loss of a few dozen that'll be forgotten too quickly.
