And that's a wrap - the foul beast was slayed and the scaredy otter was saved. I'm happy with the last panel in particular, it turned out to be one of my favorite things I've drawn all year so it's fun to have ended both the comic and this year on that note.

Huge shoutout to my Patrons for supporting me through another short comic project! It's with their support that I'm able to focus more on these comics and I'm ever grateful for it. If you've enjoyed this story and would like to support more like it, I'd love if you'd take a look at my Patreon linked below! If you're not able to join now, then sharing this comic works too!

I hope you've enjoyed getting to know Rory - and by extension, Elijah - even just a little bit. I'd love to hear your thoughts!
