Greg, just read the ramble on "City of Stone". what a great bunch of episodes!!! it's very typical of the series to reveal one secret but create ten more mysteries. when i first saw "City of Stone" i thought, "Hooray! now i know how Macbeth named Demona and how she survived the centuries but who are these "wierd sisters", where did they take Demona and Macbeth, is Xanatos becoming a good guy, and i wonder if that was the last Hunter?..."
i'm glad you waited on telling Matt about the gargs, i thought that desearved its own episode esspecially since this one is the villian's story not the good guy's. i also loved Bronx being the protector without the other gargs and how he continues to have loyalty to Demona but not enough to allow her to hurt Elisa. until this episode i had begun to wonder why Bronx was in the series, he just did so little... i really liked the role revearsal of the gargs protecting the stone Elisa.
as for why Elisa was turned the wrong way when she turned to stone the first time, i always assumed she was pacing in anticipation for the gargs to wake up and her pacing caught her facing inward.
i have two questions about "City of Stone" (for now):
you have said that Demona did not have any children with her little almost all male clan but by "CofS IV" there are dozens of garg warriors in the fight with the English. did Demona's clan assimilate another garg clan into thiers or were these all rougue gargs who heard of Demona's clan and decided to join it or what? also did Demona even bother to assign a second in command?

Greg responds...

Demona's clan was larger than appearances, because they lived in "cells" (not literally), i.e. small groups. That way if one cell was discovered and/or destroyed, the rest would still be safe.

And the garg with the metal breastplate was her second, but she didn't give him much room to stretch his wings.
