On the right side of the image, Skel is sitting upright on a bed in a dimly lit, blocky stone-walled bedroom, having just woken up with a startled, alert expression. Skel has an oversized round cream-white skull, large dark navy-black eye sockets with small white dot pupils, and a small stubby pale-white bone body with soft lavender-purple shading at the joints. The nighttime scene is lit by warm glowing lanterns on a small bedside table to the right. The left side of the image is open dark background space for text overlay.

Boom. Boom. Boom. Skel sat up in bed, startled and shaky. Something was thumping the walls of his bedroom. Not thunder. Not a storm. Just loud, thumping music coming from outside.

On the left side of the image, Skel stands outdoors on a grassy farm field, facing a group of three llamas gathered nearby. Skel has an oversized round cream-white skull, large dark navy-black eye sockets with small white dot pupils, and a small stubby pale-white bone body with soft lavender-purple shading at the joints. Skel has a surprised expression, looking at the llamas who appear excited and animated. Three blocky Minecraft-style llamas — one purple/blue, one orange/red, and one white/light blue — are standing together on the grass, appearing lively and energetic, stomping and prancing. The scene is set in bright daylight on an open green field with patches of dirt and grass visible in the background. The right ~40% of the image is plain green background suitable for text overlay.

In the morning, Skel stomped outside to find out who did it. Three silly llamas stood in the middle of the farm: one purple, one orange, one white. They pranced and kicked up dirt, tossing their heads and stomping to a beat only they could hear. 'Shoo! Go home!' yelled Skel. They looked at him, then they kept on dancing.

On the right side of the image, Skel stands upright in a grassy field with a determined, commanding expression, one arm raised and pointing away as if ordering the llamas to leave. Skel has an oversized round cream-white skull, large dark navy-black eye sockets with small white dot pupils, and a small stubby pale-white bone body with soft lavender-purple shading at the joints. In front of him on the left, three blocky Minecraft-style llamas face Skel defiantly, ignoring his command. Behind Skel stretches a farm with tilled crop rows. A small black and brown dog-like creature sits on the grass beside Skel on the right side. The scene is set outdoors on a bright, sunny day with blue skies, green grass, and rocky terrain visible in the background. The left ~40% of the image is open for text overlay.

Skel puffed out his bony chest and pointed at the path. He was getting snippy. 'I will count, and then you go,' he said. 'One. Two...' But the purple one just yawned, the orange one sat down, and the white one spun around to munch on the crops.

On the left side of the image, a large crowd of blocky Minecraft-style llamas is gathered together outdoors on a dirt path, standing and facing various directions with cheerful or mischievous expressions. A prominent purple-and-blue llama stands at the front of the group, with many more llamas of different colours (purple, blue, orange, white, pink, dark grey) packed closely behind it, suggesting the growing party mentioned in the text. The scene is set in a bright morning in a grassy, tree-lined suburban yard, with a wooden fence visible behind the group. The right side of the image is a plain dark-green text overlay area bordered by a pixelated leaf frame.

The next morning was much worse. They had invited friends, and those friends had invited even more friends. The herd filled the yard, the path, and the garden. Pink ones, tiny ones, spotty ones, big ones. Skel tried to tally them up and gave up at twenty.

On the right side of the image, Zom stands on a grassy farm field near a wooden-fenced pen filled with pink pigs, appearing to tend to the enclosure. Zom has a blocky, squared-off head with light green skin, darker green messy hair, large white eyes with black pupils, a small smiling mouth, and wears an orange-and-red horizontally striped t-shirt with dark green pants and bright green shoes. Behind and to the right of Zom, a green zombie creature is visible near the fence, lunging with its mouth open as if trying to nip at the pigs. Several pink pigs are visible inside the fenced pen. The left ~40% of the image is a plain green overlay reserved for text. The scene is set outdoors on a sunny day in a Minecraft-style blocky farm landscape with rolling green hills, wooden fences, and a lantern post in the background.

From the path, Skel called out, 'Have you seen the yard?' His pal Zom was busy with the pigs and a yappy green guy by the fence. 'They are just llamas, Skel,' Zom called back. 'No need to worry.' 'They are eating it all!' Skel yelled. 'The grass, the crops, and one even ate a fence post!' Zom shrugged and said, 'I will fix it after lunch.'

Skel stands on the left side of the image, facing toward a group of llamas in an outdoor scene with green fields, bushes, and crops visible in the background under a blue sky with soft white clouds. Skel has an oversized round cream-white skull, large dark navy-black eye sockets with small white dot pupils, and a small stubby pale-white bone body with soft lavender-purple shading at the joints. Skel has a worried, concerned expression with raised eyebrows, and is holding a brown wooden bow with an arrow nocked, aiming it toward the llamas while standing upright on a dirt and grass path. Two llamas are visible facing Skel — a small pink llama with a pale blue collar in the centre of the scene, and a larger cream-white llama with a light blue neckerchief standing to its right near the crops. The right ~40% of the image is a plain blue text panel with a decorative mosaic border, left clear for text overlay.

After lunch, Skel went out to the farm. The crops looked patchy and thin, and the fuzzy herd chewed and chewed, happy and slow, like one big shaggy lawnmower no one asked for. Skel stared at the thin patches and felt very sorry for the crops. 'That is a lot of llamas,' Skel said to himself.

Page 7
On the right side of the image, Zom stands on a dirt path walking away from a farm, holding leads attached to several llamas and guiding them forward with a determined, pleased expression. Zom has a blocky, squared-off head with light green skin, darker green messy hair, large white eyes with black pupils, a small smiling mouth, and wears an orange-and-red horizontally striped t-shirt with dark green pants and bright green shoes. Several llamas (approximately 3–4) wearing colourful decorative blankets follow closely behind in a line near a wooden farm building. More llamas follow behind them in a fluent line. The scene is set outdoors in a sunny suburban farmyard environment with warm daylight. The left ~40% of the image is open for text overlay.

Zom had a clever plan. He looped leads around three llamas and said, 'When the leader goes, the rest will follow.' And it worked! One by one, the llamas fell in line and marched right off the farm. Skel was very surprised. 'How did you do that?' Zom just grinned. 'I am a llama person.'

Skel stands on the left side of the image on a wooden path beside a pond, with a cautious, uncertain expression. Skel has an oversized round cream-white skull, large dark navy-black eye sockets with small white dot pupils, and a small stubby pale-white bone body with soft lavender-purple shading at the joints. He is positioned near tall yellow crops (wheat/corn), looking down at the pond with one arm slightly raised, as if wary of what might come next. The outdoor scene features a daytime sky with scattered clouds, a calm blue pond with fluid ripples on the water surface, and rocky terrain with greenery and red flowers in the background. The right ~40% of the image is occupied by a blank blue text overlay area with a decorative pixelated border.

The farm was very quiet. Skel stood by the pond, wary, watching the wavy water. No stomping. No chewing. No honking. Just peace. 'It will not last,' said Skel. A frog croaked. 'See?' said Skel. 'The frog knows it too.'

Page 9
On the right side of the image, a large crowd of colourful llamas (white, pink, purple, blue, grey, and multicoloured) presses eagerly into an outdoor grassy area, packed tightly together with excited, wide-eyed expressions. The llamas are seen from a slightly elevated angle, jostling and crowding one another as they swarm the spot, some standing and some pushing forward enthusiastically, rioting across the grass in a fever. The scene is set outdoors during daytime with green trees and foliage visible in the background. The left side of the image is a plain purple-toned background area clear of characters.

It did not last. The next day they were back, plus new ones Skel had never seen. They ran on the grass in one big, speedy rush, pushing and honking with joy. The farm was their best place. And the herd would not forget it.

Page 10
On the left side of the image, Skel stands in an aggressive, arms-raised pose, attempting to scare away a group of llamas in an outdoor Minecraft-style scene. Skel has an oversized round cream-white skull, large dark navy-black eye sockets with small white dot pupils, and a small stubby pale-white bone body with soft lavender-purple shading at the joints. Three or more white llamas surround Skel, several of them spitting streams of green, stinky spit directly at him. Green spit splatters are visible hitting Skel. The scene is set outdoors among birch trees with a village visible in the background, and hay bales are scattered on the ground. The right side of the image is open blue background.

'That is it!' Skel yelled, marching into the herd with his bony arms up, waving them like a windmill. 'I am scary! Fear me!' The herd just stared at him. Then the first one spat, then the second, then every one of them spat. Green, stinky spit hit Skel right in the face, and he slipped and sat down with a thud in a puddle of slimy goo.

Page 11
On the right side of the image, Zom stands with a surprised, concerned expression, looking toward Skel. Zom has a blocky, squared-off head with light green skin, darker green messy hair, large white eyes with black pupils, a small smiling mouth, and wears an orange-and-red horizontally striped t-shirt with dark green pants and bright green shoes. Skel stands next to Zom with a dejected, defeated expression, visibly covered in green stinky llama spit dripping from his cream-white skull and pale bones. Both characters are positioned outdoors on a grassy area against a blue sky with clouds, with buildings visible in the background. A green vine-bordered text area occupies the left side of the image.

Zom found him five minutes later. 'Skel? Is that you under all that yucky green stuff?' 'Stop,' said Skel, sulky and sticky and very sorry for himself. Zom bit his lip hard, but a soft laugh slipped out as he tugged his pal back up. 'Come on, you smelly softy. You smell just like llama spit.'

Page 12
On the left side of the image, Skel is sitting on a wooden bench or table, still showing traces of green spit on his bones, while Zom stands facing him holding a glowing vial of warm potion, tending to Skel's state with a caring, determined expression. Zom has a blocky, squared-off head with 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. Skel has an oversized round cream-white skull with large dark navy-black eye sockets and small white dot pupils, looking relieved. The scene is set indoors in a dimly lit stone room with warm glowing lanterns and brewing stands visible on shelves in the background, giving it a cosy hideout feel. The right side of the image is open plain background with a dark reddish tone.

Inside, Zom mixed a steamy potion by lantern light and dabbed the green off Skel's bones. Skel sat very still. 'We can't scare them, and we can't lead them away,' said Zom. He held up a shiny bottle and smiled a slow, clever smile. 'We will not get rid of them. We make them useful.' Skel leaned in. 'I am listening.'
