Wait, a conspiracy of … peace? This gets more disgusting with every panel. Thank the gods that someone had the decency to put an end to it. No telling where this would have ended up.
I know right? Havent they learned that there is more profit to be found by being at war with another? They need their media, town criers and other speakers to pass word that really there is a conspiracy to take over their lands under this false pretence of "peace". Or better yet, have their own troops stationed in the rivals lands as a token gesture to "protect" them and when the time is right strike from within!
@bormor: In Scouting, we shake with the left hand. For most people who would be wielding a sword and shield, shaking the right hands, takes the sword-hand out of play. This is like saying, "You can trust me." Shaking left hands ties up the shield-arm, while leaving the right hand free. This is like saying, "I trust you."
Also, that might be part of the spy recognition codes and gestures. A literal trust-establishment handshake.

Left hand..?
Doesn’t know what the right hand is doing (unless you’re referring to the last panel).

Hmmm… why do I have the feeling that this is what leads Halvelock to be "impatient?" Especially with Gruuumsh also being there to whisper in his ear.

That’s very interesting!
Oh, I do not like that sidelong look in Panel One…
t!
Is it just me? But I get a certain "Planet of the Apes" feeling because of Anroth’s looks/beard.
