Haley: Look, once we get Roy back, he can tell us exactly where Girard's Gate is, and you can 'port us right there.
- Panel 3
Haley: But we need to resurrect Roy first, don't we? And this is as good a place as any, and better than most. Durkon?
Durkon: Well tha first step is, we need ta find a way ta destroy tha bone golem 'fore we can—
- Panel 4
Vaarsuvius shapeshifts to pink dragon and crushes the bone golem, "CRUNCH!"

Durkon: Uh...OK. Well, I prepared Resurrection this mornin' based on Haley's Sendin' message...
Durkon: So now all I gotta do is take tha bones and these diamonds tha I've been savin' in—

Elan: Oh man! It's a shame you don't still have that giant diamond, Haley.

Haley: Wait right here, I'll be back.

Haley climbs along the website index and grabs the diamond from herself.
- Panel 11
Haley: Huh, what do you know, it worked.
Elan: You sure it didn't need to stay there?
Haley: Nah, that cast page is painfully outdated anyway. We all look deformed or something.
Haley: I mean, my bow is upside down in half the panels.
- Panel 12
Durkon: One Resurrection spell, comin' up!
Belkar: Hot damn! We keep overcoming plot obstacles at this pace, we'll be killing Xykon five strips from now!
Haley: I'm gonna need a receipt for that diamond, incidentally.
D&D Context
- Shapechange is a 9th level spell which allows the caster to take any form they desire.
Trivia
- After this comic, the Cast Page comic was edited to show Haley holding an I.O.U. instead of the diamond.
- In the OOTS cast page there is also a script held by Belkar. The script is the script for the cast page and is full of clichés. Rich Burlew is making a self-deprecating joke about the writing in Order of the Stick with the title of this strip.
