Zom stands on the right side of the image in a Minecraft-style scene, facing the viewer with a determined expression. He has light green skin, darker green messy hair, large white eyes with black pupils, and wears an orange-and-red horizontally striped t-shirt with dark green pants and bright green shoes, holding a pixelated light-green sword in his right hand. Zom is positioned on a dirt path beside a small farm garden with crops growing in rows, set in an outdoor suburban yard with a wooden house visible in the background under a partly cloudy daytime sky. Zom appears to be surveying the garden, standing upright as if planning a new venture.

Zom has a big plan. 'I will make lots of coins!' he says. 'I just need... cows.'

On the left side of the image, Zom stands proudly beside a freshly built wooden milk bar counter and a small fenced pen of cows, facing the viewer with an excited, entrepreneurial grin. He has light green skin, darker green messy hair, and wears an orange-and-red horizontally striped t-shirt with dark green pants and bright green shoes, holding a pixelated light-green sword in his right hand. A hand-painted wooden sign reading 'Milk Bar' is posted on the counter. The cows β€” some white and some red-brown β€” are gathered on the grass inside the pen. The scene is a pastoral outdoor setting with trees and greenery in the background under a soft, overcast sky. The right side of the image is open plain background.

Zom gets lots of cows. Brown and white. 'Join Zom's Milk Bar for coins!' he yells with joy.

Zom stands on the right side of the image beside a wooden fence, actively milking a cow with a bucket beneath it, facing the viewer at a three-quarter angle with a calm, purposeful expression. He has light green skin, darker green messy hair, and wears an orange-and-red horizontally striped t-shirt with dark green pants and bright green shoes, his pixelated light-green sword tucked at his side. The scene is set outdoors in the early morning with soft, warm golden light and green trees in the background. Small birds perch on the fence and fly in the sky above. Several other cows β€” white with brown spots β€” graze in the fenced pasture behind him. The left ~40% of the image is plain green background.

At dawn, the birds sing. Zom toils with his pail. He milks each cow. 'Hard work,' he says with a yawn.

On the left side of the image, Zom stands at a wooden table outdoors, facing the viewer with a cheerful smile, reaching toward small ingredient containers and a bucket of milk on the surface β€” appearing to add flavoring to the milk. He has light green skin, darker green messy hair, and wears an orange-and-red horizontally striped t-shirt with dark green pants and bright green shoes, his pixelated light-green sword in his right hand. A white blocky cow stands behind Zom on the left, reinforcing the fresh milk context. The scene is set in a grassy outdoor area with trees and a partly cloudy sky in the background, a bright daytime setting in a suburban yard.

Brown cow, white cow. Each one is not the same. So why the same milk? Zom must make a choice!

On the right side of the image, Zom stands behind a wooden crafting table outdoors, facing the viewer with a focused expression and leaning in to sniff the mixture with a 'whew' reaction. He has light green skin, darker green messy hair, and wears an orange-and-red horizontally striped t-shirt with dark green pants and bright green shoes, his pixelated light-green sword resting on the table. On the table sits a large bucket of milk and a block of chocolate that he is adding to the mix. A brown cow stands behind Zom near the table. The scene is set in a bright, grassy outdoor area with trees in the background under a clear daytime sky. The left side of the image is plain green background.

First, the cow. Zom drops a sweet block in. 'Brown cow, brown milk,' he says. He sniffs the mix. 'Hmm.'

On the left side of the image, Zom stands behind a wooden table outdoors, facing the viewer with a focused, satisfied expression as he pours vanilla from a golden bottle into a bucket of milk. He has light green skin, darker green messy hair, and wears an orange-and-red horizontally striped t-shirt with dark green pants and bright green shoes, his pixelated light-green sword in his right hand. On the table are white blocks of milk ingredients and the vanilla bottle. A small wooden sign reading 'Milk Bar' is posted nearby. Behind Zom, several white blocky cows stand on a grassy area near a building, set against a bright daytime sky. The air around the milk bar has visible aromatic swirls to suggest the grand smell. The scene has a Minecraft-style blocky aesthetic.

Next, the white cows. Zom pours from a gold flask. Sweet drops drip in. 'White cow, white milk!' he says with joy.

On the right side of the image, Zom stands beside a pink-dyed cow, facing the viewer with a playful, excited expression as he holds up a bucket of pink strawberry milk. He has light green skin, darker green messy hair, and wears an orange-and-red horizontally striped t-shirt with dark green pants and bright green shoes, his pixelated light-green sword tucked at his side. The cow beside him is white with bright pink dye splotches across its body. On a wooden table nearby, a container of pink strawberry milk is being prepared. The scene is set outdoors with green grass and trees in the background under a bright daytime sky. The left ~40% is plain green background.

Zom points at the pink cow. 'Pink milk!' he yells. Soon the milk turns a sweet pink. Zom holds it up.

Page 8
On the left side of the image, a small group of three Villagers stand together outdoors in a Minecraft-style scene, facing the viewer with curious, excited expressions as they look toward the milk bar. Each Villager is stocky and chibi-style with a large rounded-square bald head, light peach skin, large dark brown eyes with white highlights, a small pink dot nose, wearing a dark brown long-sleeved shirt with a cream off-white apron tied at the front, dark brown-maroon pants, and dark brown boots. They are gathered on a grassy area with blocky hills and trees in the background under a bright daytime sky. The right ~40% of the image is plain mint-green background.

Word gets out fast. Three boys show up and sniff. 'Brown milk? White or pink?' They run to join the line.

On the right side of the image, Zom stands behind the milk bar counter holding out a bucket of murky brown-green mushroom milk, facing the viewer with an oblivious grin. He has light green skin, darker green messy hair, and wears an orange-and-red horizontally striped t-shirt with dark green pants and bright green shoes, his pixelated light-green sword in his right hand. In front of the counter, a Villager recoils with a disgusted, whining expression β€” bald head, light peach skin, large dark brown eyes scrunched up, wearing a dark brown shirt with a cream off-white apron, dark brown-maroon pants, and dark brown boots β€” holding their nose and leaning away from the foul-smelling mushroom milk. Visible stink lines waft from the bucket. The scene is set outdoors with green foliage and trees in the background. The left side is plain mint-green background.

The milk sat in the sun all day. Zom slides a pail to the boys. The first boy leans in, then makes a big noise. 'Yuck!'

Page 10
On the left side of the image, Zom stands near his milk bar in a suburban neighbourhood among wooden houses, facing the viewer with a sheepish, embarrassed expression, still holding the bucket of mushroom milk. He has light green skin, darker green messy hair, and wears an orange-and-red horizontally striped t-shirt with dark green pants and bright green shoes, his pixelated light-green sword in his right hand. A Villager is seen running away from Zom in a panicked whirl β€” bald head, light peach skin, wearing a dark brown shirt with a cream off-white apron, dark brown-maroon pants, and dark brown boots β€” arms flailing as they flee past wooden houses on a grassy path in bright daylight. The scene has a Minecraft-style blocky aesthetic with wooden structures and green grass. The right ~40% is plain mint-green background.

The first boy bolts! The rest run too. 'More for me!' says Zom. He takes a gulp. His face turns green. Well, more green. Spoiled!
