Very cool! Great job on the cave walls, but I think the pictures should have
been a little darker. :) I like the new elemental designs. I guess they did
a little leveling between stories, eh? ;)
Also, I'm going to have to agree with the others in that the giant spell names
were a tad distracting... The spell effects were great, though. :)

I wish I had the equipment and software to really do some stories... Alas, I
do not... :\ I do have access to my mother's school's Mavica (no macro,
though), so once I finish sorting all of last year's aquisitions (yes, I did
virtually *no* sorting last year), I'll do some preliminary work. :) I do
have some space and mecha related ideas I want to work on first, though...

How did you do Merciator's staff? Tape? Also, how did you get Cassandra to
hold the minifig hands?

Neat idea! I may have to do something similar if I ever incorporate a cavern
into one of my stories. :)
