Who?\r\n\r\nPanel Ten: Erlak speaks to the adventurer.\r\n\r\nERLAK: I have been watching thine exploits from the Mountains of the Gods and have come down to honor thee by becoming thy divine patron.\r\n\r\nPanel Eleven: The adventurer kneels.\r\n\r\nADVENTURER: I am indeed honored, Great One.

There is something about the drawing of Erlak's face in the second panel that looks really wrong to me. At first I thought it was the eyes, but no, on closer examination I'm pretty sure that the main problem is that the chin is too wide. Anyway, I hate it.
