Yes! Thank you for a lovely trip to 2 k. I lost some of you along the way and that does make me a little sad, but now is not the time for emo attention seeking!

I hope you enjoy this. I'm kind of proud of it. The title can be taken one of two ways. I may or may not be keeping it [I think it sounds cool.] I was randomly asking for a title and someone said "Crown Jewels." I thought he said "Challenge Rules" and I liked it. [I refuse to name the title of the comic that contains my most beloved characters a euphamism for balls.]

Here's the lowdown:

Center: Xanthos. You all pry recognize him by now, especially those of you I know in person. Xanti is my God. Do not question him.

Center Left: Kagerou. He's gradually becoming skinnier and more insane. He's the weapons expert in the crew. He likes making things go boom.

Far Left: Emo Yukiko. Yeah. Xanthos sold him into a prostitution ring when he was eight. Meng wanted new dresses, what was a guy to do? Yukiko kinda hates him now, but he still travels with them. Yaaay hate?

Center Right: Meng. No relation to the earlier pictures of her except in name and hairstyle. She is Xanti's "imported hench wench." [Wanna' see the catelouge? XD] She's kind of a bitch, but I think she's awesome.

Far Right: That's Araña. [A-rah-nya] I don't know what relation she has to the story, but I needed another girl and I think she's neat so NYA!

I hope you all enjoy and I'll see you again with another pretty comic picture at 5k!
