Page 1
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.

Wham, wham, wham! Skel sits up in bed. What a din!

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.

A set of llamas is on Skel's land. They whish and they stomp.

Page 3
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 stands tall and yells at them. When he yells, the llamas sit still.

Page 4
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.

Whump, whump! A big mob of them fills the path.

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.

Zom is at his pig pen. Skel asks Zom to help, but Zom will not whisk them off.

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.

The crops are a mess. Skel gets a whiff of llamas on his land.

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 has a plan. He gets straps on the llamas and whisks them off the land.

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.

No whish and no whomp. Skel can rest at the pond.

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.

The llamas whizz back! They rush in and fill up all the land.

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.

Skel yells at them. Whap, whap, the llamas spit at him!

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 gets a whiff of him. What a mess Skel is!

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.

Zom gets his flask and dabs at Skel. When Skel is well, they will fix this mess.
