This was my little thank-you to the fans, and my own way of clearing out the stress to make room for lighter, happier thoughts. It also marks the first time a fan has had a speaking role in any kind of strip/depiction by me. I'm swelling Emridhs' head here but he's been fabulously supportive throughout the life of the strip, so, swell away. Besides, I can just put him in the dryer. He shrinks.

There's no question he's the unofficial King of the Fan Club, our very own alpha fan, but honestly, he's also the easiest to draw-- Roan, Bleekersavage, arasithil, and many others (my memory for names sucks but I know them by their deeds!) have stuck with us to the point where I honestly don't think there's ever going to be enough I can do to pay them back. It was scary thinking I might piss you off and make you go away, but I had faith that you'd be supportive and that faith wasn't misplaced. You guys rock.
