Author Notes:
Still, pretty happy with how it turned out at least. Certainly visually striking, even though I probably could've made the blood look better if I'd had a bit more time to really work at it; think in particular I probably should've done something about the outline, it shouldn't be as prominent as it is.
... I'd also meant to make there be blood all over them after going in and completely forgot about it in the chaos of everything else happening. I'll retcon that in later, need to wait for Adam to get out of bed, didn't send the MS file after shading it for me to be able to do that as it is. Actually pretty embarrassing I forgot that detail.
Either way, yeah, hopefully everybody enjoys this one.

Wonder what's going to happen next.
Heheh... Yeah, building on this concept, with the kids having to counter the Night Terror's counter... which help from Jake, who's taking advantage of the Night Terror being distracted. ..... Did he plunge that spear or throw it?
This was a weird one to put together due to unfortunate circumstances, but turned out pretty great. Martin threw out a new way to do hair in this page and wound up experimenting with it as the page went. Every new panel we tried the style on someone else and in every case it wound up being a fun surprise. Favorite is maybe Lore in panel one; can't see her that well, but we tried hard to make sure her hair looked just the right amount of messy. OH! Vespi in the first panel had that too.
This felt like a good callback to Jenny making a spell to bring her to Vespi at the start of this arc... I get the feeling Vespi could probably do this herself, but wants to push Jenny to try it instead.
Few gags that came about through doing it; Lillie cutely spitting blood out of her mouth while Andy props her up was just me trying to think what would be the most in character for her. Martin threw in the cool touch of the cloth that Jake is using to tie his spear together getting torn when he shoves it through the Night Terror's mouth. It's a bit tattered now, unlike the last time we saw it, and you can see some strands of cloth caught in the Night Terror's teeth.
