Especially the part where she cuts off her braid in grief

This has to be my favourite representation of grief in fiction. In the previous issues we have had a few scenes where One-Eye is taking care of her hair, so it makes sense that she would cut it off.

Moments like that between Cutter and Skywise are part of why I love ElfQuest. I shipped those two long before I knew what slash was (though I guess it can't be called slash or even shipping when it's ElfQuest).

Same for me - that was a really powerful moment and it broke my heart, too.

Also, I totally agree on Cutter/Skywise here. ♥
