Description

Sure! Here’s the text from the comic transcribed as accurately as possible:

Panel 1: "You come to an island where there are three types of people: knights, knaves, and normals. The knights always speak truth. The knaves always lie. The normals sometimes speak the truth and sometimes lie."

Panel 2: "The knights have most of the wealth and power. They can speak their minds without repercussions."

Panel 3: "The knaves have no power and must say what is necessary to get by."

Panel 4: "The normals are a healthy medium. They interface with all groups."

Panel 5: "Lately, the knights have accrued an ever-greater portion of wealth, resulting in ever fewer normals."

Panel 6: "As the intermediate class shrinks, the knights and knaves grow ever more estranged — the former greater in power, the latter greater in number."

Panel 7: "Division, anger, misunderstanding… all seem to presage an uncommonly bloody war, with its issue being either mob rule or dictatorship."

Panel 8: "So… the puzzle is…"

Panel 9: "How do we get off this island?"
