How does the 'Horrortale Patrick comic' contribute to or diverge from the established lore and atmosphere of the Horrortale AU?

The comic primarily contributes by expanding the Horrortale AU's thematic scope through an unexpected character lens, exploring how someone completely outside its usual context would react to its horrors and survive. It diverges by injecting an element of surreal humor or extreme, almost absurd, contrast that isn't always present in more 'serious' Horrortale narratives. While it adheres to the core atmosphere of despair, hunger, and survival, the inclusion of Patrick adds a unique, often darkly comedic or tragically ironic layer to the established lore.
