Welcome to the Fantasy Book Club, where reality-denying liars come to hang out... at least according to Fiona. Hope you enjoy your stay. *note* I am currently in the process of updating some of the art in the first chapter. I'm not redoing everything, just a few panels here and there to be closer to my current style.

There was a girl in school who was constantly checking out the books I wanted to read. If I was on a waiting list it was because of her. For a while there, it was uncertain if we were going to become friends because of it... or enemies. /rant

It's a double update! Since this was originally formatted as a comic book page spread I decided to put this entire segment together. Hope you enjoy!
This illuminated manuscript appears to have a slime problem... I have a mild obsession with 13th-century illustrations so I did a ton of research for these two pages. The way monsters especially were portrayed in them is absolutely fascinating to me.

I want to give a quick shout-out to my very good friend, Eric. Working on this episode I was completely stuck. I hated everything I was doing and was falling behind on my schedule. He sat down with me and my Issue 4 script for hours. He got me to feel confident in what I was doing again. Thank you for always being there for me Eric... I really can't express how much your help has meant to me.

There are two things that will make an episode take forever to draw: 3+ characters in the scene and if I really like how the art turned out and spend a lot of time on it only for webtoon to compress it all to hell. This episode has both problems. What I'm saying is my buffer is gone and I finished this three hours ago. But I got it done! 3 episodes left in this chapter!
