Detour, a Tales of Crestoria Fanbook pages 12-18

Hello, and welcome to my Tales of Crestoria fanbook! This little project began mostly as a joke until it spiraled out of control and now I'm in too deep. Unfortunately it's taking a little longer than I anticipated, so I'll be doing monthly releases of 5-8 pages until its all done. I hope you will support me and this project!
