I love how in this one, they’re harvesting mandrakes on the second floor and a random farmer just shows up to talk about them.

Apparently you’re supposed to read this from right to left. I didn’t realize that until I was half way through and it wasn’t making a ton of sense.
Yes. It’s a bonus page from the manga, which is of course right to left in the original Japanese, and remains so unless the layout of the art was to be mirrored.

And then a viking(?) appears to suggest eating the poison root?!
I’m enjoying these shared pages, thank you! but it fucks me up everytime that these are read right-to-left, haha.
That’s Senshi, the dwarf in the group. They DO eat them, in the story it’s a magical plant with a dangerous scream, but edible roots.
The plant also exists in reality, the panel is warning against eating it for real because the irl plant, the mandragora, is poisonous.
