Description Part three of the Switzerland story! "In which stuff actually happens."

Part IV: [link]
Part II: [link]

Edit: Added functional loading bar! Will be adding them to previous versions soon.

Notes:
This is terribly, terribly overdue and I apologize! Not only to whoever is actually keeping up with this, but to myself. I am sorry, self. I was supposed to be finished with this so I wouldn't end up frantically trying to finish cleaning it up after finishing schoolwork.

Enter Edward Hyde! In the great tradition of Jekyll and Hyde stories, the livelier of the two personalities only shows his face about halfway through the story, after Jekyll has pretty much exhausted his quota for flailing and complaining. Actually I hadn't planned to write him into this story at all--he sort of pushed himself in there when I decided to make Frankenstein's little tumble.... more of a big tumble.

Hyde is forced to show his presence whenever life-threatening situations arise (due to his superior strength and agility), but otherwise he has been pretty content to sit on the sidelines throughout this story. Why? Because here he is really, really out of his element. Edward Hyde operates best in densely populated cities where he has plenty of havoc to wreck. Here, his only potential victims are also the only two people who know how to get him out of these mountains, and also.... just maybe.... possibly..... his friends (?).

Also a major reason this installment is so late is that I have horrible problems drawing Hyde. XD He is the best tracking device for my improvements (?) as an artist because he is hands down the toughest character I have to draw. As it is, I'm probably at least going to redraw that panel where he's making ducklips at the end.

Also random note on Frankenstein: His solitary life has led to his tendency to not contribute any useful solution to a situation but still mope around when the end result isn't to his liking. Hmm! I seem to be subconsciously writing in my personal pet peeves into his character.

It really depends.... this one took me a month (embarrassing) because school had started and I didn't have any time to work on it. Two weeks is more common....
