How do I comic?  
Why is comic so much work?  
What was I thinking?
 
Okay, so, I had this idea for a story about a Changeling for a few years now, but I never got around to do anything with it. I was considering maybe writing a fanfic, but I cannot into words. So, I decided to try putting it into comic form. This may or may not prove to be a terrible mistake in the long run…  
Anyway, the first page is finally done after what seems like an eternity. Starting to build a set of props to speed up things in the future though, so who knows…  
Yea, not much happening here yet, gotta establish the setting first. And that setting is at some point during early season 6, somewhere near the Equestrian / Gryphonlands border.  
Come back in half an eternity for page 2 of this thrilling storyline.  
Seriously though, I have no idea how long further pages will take. Really gotta get a better workflow and everything done here, as this doesn’t look quite… optimal.
 
Note: this comic will include both OCs and canon characters, and should be considered and “Alternate Universe”, for as much as I will try to keep things compatible with the canon, there are a few things that will have to differ from the show for the sake of the story. Also, muh headcannon.  
Note2: Yes, the main character here is my changeling OC, however, the story idea is a lot older than that character. It was only when I started working on this comic that I decided to alleviate the main character from “generic story character” to “muh OC”, if that makes any sense. So, don’t worry, it won’t be a raging self-insert Mary Sue who gets all the mares. And stallions. And Gryphons. And whatever else has a pulse.
 
– Frown Factory out.
 
Note for derpibooru: most of the assets (characters, trees, the outside of the tavern) can be found on my deviantart page, in case you ever need some generic ass apple trees or something.

Yea, the font kinda sucks. I have no idea what the hell I’m doing, so there will probably be an updated version of this is a few days. Trying to incorporate people’s feedback here.
