They walked down a narrow street lined with pointy houses that were very close together. Everything was softly colored and looked very old.
“One thing’s for sure,” Atha said, looking around in wonder. “We are NOT in Kansas anymore.”
The unicorn snorted.
“What?” Atha asked. “I LIVE in Kansas!”
As they walked on in silence, Atha noticed that the pretty houses all had broken windows, and what must once have been beautiful flowers in flower boxes were now dead sticks. “How did this happen?” She asked the unicorn.
“It’s the dragon.” He said, sadly. Since he came to town, nothing good stays whole. He breaks everything he sees. That’s why I came to get you. Once upon a time-”
“That sounds familiar.” Atha interrupted.
Grumpily, the unicorn continued. “A long time ago, you pledged to do whatever you had to do to defend this land. You may not remember, but it’s true.”
Atha thought about that.

I did a stupid amount of work on this. I pasted broken windows over all the nice windows in the picture of Rothenburg, and used varioius clone brushes etc to make the windows all unique. I also blended them in. I changed the colors of the flowers to make them look dead. I made Atha BW and just colored in her eyes. I also made a walking winged unicorn just to show you his behind. But I saved him, I’ll probably use him later on.
The fonts are still a picture and goudy medieval
