    But also look at the third panel. The road has turned to dust, the sign has a tree growing through it. There’s clearly been no bus for at least half a century. You don’t need to know what that character is to pick up on something off

      You can’t see the road in any prior panel, so I don’t know if the path has changed at all, same with the sign, etc.

        What? It doesn’t change within the comic. It’s drawn to show that nature has started to reclaim the area because it’s abandoned or VERY rarely used.

        It makes no sense how you’re are failing to understand this, it’s like you’re consciously tying to miss every obvious and clearly stated thing.

          I was actually confused in the exact same way. Your comment made me understand of course. But it’s very easy to think this is just a bus stop in some forest somewhere and this is just how it looks. He’s talking to an elf girl after all. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to be under the assumption that a mystical forest bus stop would just look like this.

          Bro just stop you’re being a dick to someone who doesn’t understand a comic.

          This community doesn’t need this sort of toxicity

          It makes no sense how you’re are failing to understand this, it’s like you’re consciously tying to miss every obvious and clearly stated thing.

          It does makes sense for me. There is also a possibility that the state in the third panel is the same as the first and second panel given they’re closed-up. That’s why there should be some clues shows in either 1st or 2nd panel to show that the state has changed. Given that no clues are given, readers can make wild assumption.
