Poetic Musings
Thank you for taking this literary journey with me! Here I post personal thoughts on social issues, reflections about day-to-day living, and of course a healthy amount of stories inspired by the many games I’ve played over the years. I try to update several times a week, and genuinely appreciate the care and support of all who read these words, whether the post is fanciful or heartfelt.
The Where to Start page has great suggestions for first-time visitors, and all posts are sorted by the Categories you see in the right-side menu; feel free to narrow things down!

Conquest: the Future Promises
Having left the Scarlet Chorus' camp safely, ignoring Voice of Nerat's subtle barbs suggesting that my possession of the Silent Archive could be seen as an affront to Kyros' directive that dangerous knowledge be suppressed for the good of the empire, I took some time...
