Pretty sure the orc was not a player character.

That is the only thing I am sure of. What is happening? Is Tempts stabbing him or bleeding on him? I see the tooth exploding, and I see the aftermath, but I can't say for certain that a stabbing is going on. Where did the previous page go? Where is the rest of the orc's arm in panel four, and why is what is left of it sticking out of his upper chest?

I collected the Tempts Fates pages as far as I could here

TF used his foot to grab the key from the warden, punch the eye with the key in his foot, unlock the shackle, swing to the side to evade the punch, unlock the other shuckle, and then use the key as a kind of dagger to kill the Orc.

Ah well, "Tempts' success will reach maxed out, WTF, world breaking levels of victory!"...

Yeah... I figured as much. That is what has to be going on. I am not confident I can say the art portrays this however.

And, even if he is bound for success, I still want to see some struggle! John Mcclane crawling around in the building to eventually come out on top is wonderful. This, whatever is going on, is like something pulled from a Steven Seagal movie. Are we going to see Tempts Fate commit murders in awkward ways for a few pages now before getting back to the comic?

I fear so. In most TF's, the fights were less obvious to comprehend. I found the puzzle ones better.

That "guy" sounded like a Pokemon...



What I dislike about the fight against the warden: Why did TF let himself be pummeled this much, if he finds it so easy to escape now?

Tempt's Fate!

*He can't keep getting away with it gif here*

Memento Mori!

One day! But not this day!

I am a little saddened that this appears to be taking over the update schedule for the normal comic for the sidestory with Tempt's as I'd feared. But eh an update is an update and thus as a beggar, I cannot be a chooser. At least it's something!
