thank you for all the submissions! this is the first batch of submission page updates.

Now that I look back at it, the first page of act 2 has a lot of unicorn horns in it acting as houses
Am I the only one who finds this suspicious?
Ok I look crazy. See, the edited cover keeps the shading of the og cover, EXCEPT FOR THIS DUDE'S PANTS. Which get turned into a black mass. Are they trying to hide what satyr legs look like to spite ME personally? Or is it a dress, hinting at what Satyr fashion is like? (in that case based based based long skirts can be masculine af)

The legendary Uni-Nymph and the tale of CATFISH DOGFISH, the concept of two species combined together returns. It really feels like the world does not want that to happen at all. Uni-Nymph being a victim, they way Ly'Lac is seemingly punished for paying homage, the way CATFISH DOGFISH is looked down on... What The Fuck Gods! Also the view we get of Satyrs in D.N.ALKYRIN is AWESOME I'm excited to meet them!!!
Alsoalso RE:matthew, on my screen it looks just slightly darkened to me, I can see the seams of the pants so I think it's just normal legs but that made me think how fucking funny and perfect it would be if they were actually like centaurs and that is front view horse
It's exciting to be getting worldbuilding explained to us like this, this must be what it was like when hivebent was first coming out before people knew what the hemospectrum or quadrants were.
when i picture what a saytr would look like, i just imagined dirk with shaggy goat legs and horns. it would be pretty cool if they were full-on centaurs, though. the funniest option for what could happen (imo) is that saytrs just look like nymphs but bald, and nymphs are a parasitic headcrab-type species. i dont think this is whatll happen, but it would be in character for rose to design her species like that to jokingly spite dirk.
dirk says at one point that nymphs are aquatic and saytrs are terrestrial, so obviously therell be a divide between saytr parts of the world and nymph parts. i wonder how thatll come in to play. im really excited to learn more!
Read Cold, Cold Flood on AO3!
re:kitastrophey Agreed on that new world building excitement, watching everybody rush to extrapolate off of every little hint is extremely refreshing. Soaking it all in while it's fresh
Started reading D.N.Angel to get a sense of any thematic resonance. Will report back if anything occurs to me
The success of a paradigm may not be for the reasons it claims (i.e. accurate description of the world). This is good.
Hmm! Very queint little update, hints to a inportant historical figure, as well as the use of alchemy so nonchalantly are very interesting when it comes to worldbuilding
We also continue to see a bit of personality from our Nymph kid, she sems to no put too much stock into shipping, unlike her friend, but not in a "I don't care" way.
Ygnore tipos IS like a beet or somethyng!!!!!!! :3
