[SPOILER] Click here to see my commentary for this page!
My comment for this page from Gaia: sic mundus creatus est:Lilith isn’t able to recollect what exactly she did in Oakdale. But she’s talking about the moment when she made Eldor write “12” instead of “13” in Monster #79, which ultimately allowed her to cast several time-bending spells in The Bipartite Mind #43.

Re: the author’s comment
Why was Eldor supposed to write 13? I don’t understand the context for that number. I also cannot find “The Bipartite Mind” in the archive. Was it renamed?
@Confused
This is the comic’s second run, The Bipartite Mind is the climactic chapter, so there’s still a ways to go yet.
@ Confused:
This is this particular comic’s rerun, with added commentary, and some artwork rework on some pages. A lot of us commenters had been here since the first run. I think you can spoil yourself on the story a bit if you go to the section of this site that has Gaia in German/auf Deutsch, as that version remains in its entirety from the original run.
That’s an interesting tidbit of info to reveal. I know we see him write a bunch of math, including the very act of writing 12 back in that comic here, but I’m still not sure what the importance of 13 vs 12 is, other than this comment that it is important….
@ Zitchas:
It will be clearly signposted when it becomes relevant in the comic’s climax. iirc that number is the number of rotations required for something.
The number itself is not relevant — don’t try to decipher the notebook; it’s nonsense (to us). It’s the change of the number that matters. Why? Read and find out!
