I had made this a few days before Brian announced that he was indeed going to make an EPIClogue. Because Brian is doing his official version, I thought it would be fun to post what I came up with here, so you can see when his comes out how it makes mine looks like like it was written by a two year old. Anyway, I just thought it would be a fun exercise in Photoshop, as I have no experience.*shrug* Oh, and that is the Royal Guard and the Messenger in the background there, not a soldier and an elf.
Special thanks to Meister and rpgdemon for giving me pro tips on the speech balloons.
