Alice Grove MCDT - February 2015
jwhouk:
Do notice that the plant is similar to the one that Alice was holding in the "chores" strip a while back.
BenRG:
Okay; carnivorous plants and creepy animals that only look like deer. I don't think that this is Earth.
Am I the only one who thinks that the locals call that place the 'Haunted Forest'? Creepy by day; tends to be seriously lethal at night! They think that Alice is either crazy or a witch for living there. To her, controlling the Flora and fauna is just part of the job.

Alice, hovering just above the tree canopy, glaring down at them and tapping her toes. I'm expecting a sci-fi version of a disappointed guardian's chastisement of disobedient kids.

The second seems the more likely interpretation to me.

Or maybe this is only found around Alice's house, placed here by her, but still real. The potted plant she is holding on a previous may be a clue that it is so.
KevxD:
Things just got seriously interesting.
Maybe Alice was protecting Ardent and Gavia from the village, not the other way 'round.
That last panel makes it look like something even scarier is coming at them from out of panel
ReindeerFlotilla:
Alice knows they left. I was wondering when she'd intervene. I'm gonna say this is it.
