Order of Tales is a surreal fantasy webcomic by Evan Dahm. The story is set in Overside, several centuries prior to Dahm's other webcomic, Rice Boy. However, Order is more of a side story than a direct prequel. The comic completed July, 2010, and Dahm has since started a third webcomic, Vattu.Koark (pronounced Ko-ark) is the last Teller of the Order of Tales. He barely escaped the destruction of his hometown with nothing but a book of stories, his mount Potok, and the instructions of his father to find an ancient and powerful story: "The Ascent of the Bone Ziggurat". Fifteen years later, Koark has a chance run-in with a Machine Man named The One Electronic, and his first good lead to finding the tale of the Ziggurat... and his travels get him mixed up with a very pissed-off Damsel in Distress, made of glass and known only as Bottle Woman. | |

Heroic BSoD: Koark experiences a brief one after Potok dies. He's definitely traumatized in the ending after his recent battle, and grieving the deaths of Potok and the Bottle Woman. | |

Red Right Hand: The original Rog had a distinctly burnt, blackened appearance—and this new Rog looks similar, which makes his followers think he might really be Rog's second coming. He's really Gerráh, and received those burns during his attack on Themb's home. | |

Character Development | |
| Order of Tales (Webcomic) / int_3b113b7 | comment |
Character Development: Subtle and off-screen, but heartwarming. When Koark is a boy, he treats Potok with disdain for being scrawny and grey, favoring joyrides on his father's mount instead. After the fifteen year Time Skip to Chapter Two, he is quite affectionate with Potok. Which means it really, really sucks when Potok dies. | |

The Storyteller | |
| Order of Tales (Webcomic) / int_4441d947 | comment |
The Storyteller: The purpose of the Order of Tales is to preserve and tell stories. Koark, being the last of them, may have had to learn on the job, but he carries the book, knows by heart which story to read in which circumstances, and wins several people over by doing so. If he has no tale to read, he can speak rather eloquently on his own. | |

The Reveal | |
| Order of Tales (Webcomic) / int_6b2b3b59 | comment |
The Reveal: Back in Rice Boy, T-O-E was reluctant to return to the Black Teeth because he had a falling-out with the other Machine Men; even if he wanted to go back, he doubted they would let him. In this comic, we see that falling-out directly. T-O-E brought the Bottle Woman to the Black Teeth for safekeeping, but the Machine Elders had already allied with Rog, and tried to hand her off to his forces. T-O-E defied and attacked the Machine Elders in order to rescue the Bottle Woman and escape. | |

The last chapter shows now-adult Koark about to head off with TOE and Calabash on another adventure, and he picks the same flowers. | |

| Order of Tales (Webcomic) / int_776a06eb | comment |
All Myths Are True: Played with to such an extent that the story is one step away from going meta, especially in the climactic fight with Gerráh, who attempts to recreate the Obilik myth, dryly noting that the hero, Koark, dies in the tale. In the end, all myths are subverted. T-O-E puts it best at the beginning: | |

Fetch Quest: When Koark and T-O-E first meet, the latter indicates he knows something about "The Ascent of the Bone Ziggurat", but he makes Koark deliver a message to Extranji before he'll answer any questions. Then Extranji turns out to be mortally wounded, and he implores Koark to rescue the recently kidnapped Bottle Woman. This mission has several more twists and turns before Koark finally meets up with T-O-E again. | |

It's All Junk: After the defeat of Gerráh, at the cost of the Bottle Woman's sacrifice, Koark is distraught at how much death and destruction could be caused by one old story. He takes the book of tales, a gift from his father which he'd carried around for the entire comic, and silently throws it off a cliff. | |

Horrible Judge of Character: Koark's father, Themb, has already heard that Gerráh killed Mour, but dismisses it as a rumor—he simply can't accept that a member of the Order of Tales would attack another. Themb invites Gerráh to his home to talk things over, and Gerráh uses that as an opportunity to attack. | |

Mythopoeia | |
| Order of Tales (Webcomic) / int_d780b394 | comment |
Mythopoeia: Koark's job is to catalog it. At the beginning of the comic, his main motivation is to find a tale his father couldn't find - the story of Obilik and Bottle Woman. When he finally does, the story gives him information necessary to survive. | |

Reasonable Authority Figure | |
| Order of Tales (Webcomic) / int_dca70c44 | comment |
Reasonable Authority Figure: When Koark gets Mistaken for Murderer in Tenshells, the Oceanqueen who presides over his trial is brusque and rather frightening, but figures out quickly that Koark isn't the murderer and orders his release. King Pronomb of Stone Palm recognizes that Koark is an ally, and allows him and the Bottle Woman to use the Horned's secret passages to reach their next destination. | |

Last of His Kind | |
| Order of Tales (Webcomic) / int_e26f04b4 | comment |
Last of His Kind: Teller Gerráh has betrayed the Order and killed the other tellers (including Koark's father), leaving Koark the last member of the Order of Tales. Bottle Woman is also the last, as the only man alive who knew how to make Bottle Women was Extranji. | |

MacGuffin Super-Person: The Bottle Woman. The liquid inside her is the only thing that can destroy Obilik's magical, invincible sword. | |

Enemy Civil War | |
| Order of Tales (Webcomic) / int_f52ae5d8 | comment |
Enemy Civil War: Some of Rog's followers chafe under his rule, and rebel against him as soon as they get the opportunity. Aethirus is trying to obtain the Bottle Woman specifically to defeat Rog with it, and eventually joins T-O-E's party outright. Later, a troop of blackbirds mistake Koark for the second coming of Obilik, and they almost immediately throw their support behind his attempt to overthrow Rog. | |
