I am afraid I don't really get the cornpone accent. I thought Mitri was supposed to be part of the royal family. shouldn't she have a more sophisticated mode of speech?

Page 24 has your answer. Also, she was never royalty but the king did look after her for awhile. She's an orphan adopted by Eloma.

Thanks. That is so far back that I had forgotten it. Now it makes sense.

I've always had a hard time giving piggy back rides. I'd have to tell her, "It's the space toad or getting dropped" XD

Good thing she's a cyborg super-soldier wearing an exo-frame (i.e., powered armor). I'd think she'd be able to carry an adult male in armor without breaking a sweat. Though, there could be an issue of leverage or center of gravity.
Question is, though, is piggy-back riding on the back of an exo-framed soldier for miles and miles, at speed, going to lead to chafing? Doesn't look too comfortable...

No, she knows the kid can provide valuable intel. She just doesn't relish the heap of hogwash she'll have to sift through to get to it.

Down here a "corn picker" is someone who drives a Chevy Truck. Real southerners drive Fords (cept'n the city boys who drive 'yotas).

That last panel is gorgeous rendering. Very nice sky/terrain there.
