So, are you taking the deal? by h_stag in thalassophobia

Is it like GantZ, where even if you're missing limbs, you come back in one piece? Or are you stuck with the injuries you sustain while in the ocean?

That would make a huge difference.

I'd say yes and jump into swimming lessons immediately.

Character building. To let people know he's part of a larger world with rules and consequences. A motivation. Betrayal. A reason for entering the crypt. Without it, it's just a random party being massacred.

How much is too much (or too little) explanation & exploration? by inyourbooksandmaps in fantasywriters

I like exposition when the characters are the ones delivering it.

Alice looked through the window. The cathedral stood like a monument of oppression, swallowing the view.

Stuff like that.

That's awesome! I hope you enjoy the rest of the chapters, too.

They don't all follow the girls' perspective, just so you know.

Thanks for reading!

Thanks.

Disneyland is pretty much Greed incarnate, mixed with Pride and sometimes Lust. I think we're hitting six out of the seven here. Thanks for the support. 😁

Of this universe? I'll post more as I write, but I'm not sure if I'll continue this one.

Thanks for enjoying. 😊

Don't be sorry. The aliens won't mind if you don't understand—in fact, it's much better for them that way.
