I’m sorry, but what exactly is going on with the desk, there?
It’s been so long, I can’t remember if that’s where some artifact got shattered or what.

"Preach it, sister!"
"I already [do], because I'm a Cleric!"

I love this exchange.

I also wonder if any of the benefits of previously being a town guard (low-level fighter, maybe?) will show up later. Feats? Bonus save? Hmm...

The issue I have with what Durkon is proposing is obvious: Xykon would hear the Sending too.

It can, but that just leads to angst and erratic behavior... and possibly distract you from your duties enough that you suffer a disfiguring injury (or two).

Yes, yes he did.

Of course, the whole strip is made with the "Lamp based oppression of people of vapor" comment by Roy.
