Description
Everybody wants to see a bit of legitimised violence in the form of the weapon contest in the tournament! Diplomat Minako of the Kirin Clan would rather be overseeing peace breaking out - as opposed to a fight - but has to resort to slugging it out with some big guy and then conceding just before she passes out...

So I was determined to make this one as comic-like as possible, just to show I was firmly a new resident of comic-town with this series. So cue loads of frames all squeezed in and lots of frame gutters. (I could still only fit in a tiny bit of the adventure, as always.) I just couldn’t resist the large, full-figure shot in the top left though.

It’s always interesting how making a single comic page means you have to twist things from the original source material (in this case, a role-playing game run by me with my mates) to make it work. Different mediums of storytelling require different approaches. Obvs.

Next time: MORE FIGHTING but also poetry.
