This is like something straight out of Greek myth.

Which one? Tsal?

Lastly, Tsal filled their lungs with air, instilling in them a sense of wonder.

Golnesh formed their bodies, while Ure filled their veins with water to allow movement.

Yalid gave them sight and knowledge, while Aka gave them their other senses and morality.

Vashamala lit the flames of passion in their souls, while Eminess gave them the spark of life.

In the end, though, they settled on humans as we know them, and each of the first seven Divines bestowed a gift unto the newly-formed mortals.

"Not again."
Does this guy watch women fall into pits frequently or...?

You absolutely need to play it! Triangle Strategy is legit one of my favorite games of all time. Just don't obsess too much about getting the best ending on your first playthrough. Trust me: the game is absolutely meant to be replayed multiple times before you try for the ideal outcome.

They're most commonly found in Elux and are raised primarily to be mounts for the most elite knights. As such, they are exceedingly loyal to their riders.

The animals also tend to be an excuse for me to slip in shameless mythology references. Like skoha wolves; canines whose males are diurnal and females are nocturnal. If you get the reference, you get a brownie.

Sherlock Holmes investigating a vampire case, gets turned into one himself, has to solve the mystery while resisting his newfound dark urges and keeping his transformation secret.

Pou has only just begun utilizing sparkpowder weapons. Firearms and cannons are still relatively new for most of the population, so most Pounese warriors still prefer traditional weapons...
