“We fell once. We do not fall again.”

Under Khdvan's Nalun, the Urix made order from chaos and focus from fury. The Piniarsar exemplify it in the hunt: restrained, exact.

Yes, you are looking up—WAY UP! Hubble captured bright, actively forming stars illuminating gas clouds that are 160,000 light-years away in another galaxy. The stars sculpt clumps of dust with powerful UV light—and will keep at it for millions of years. Credit: NASA, ESA.

I'm thinking about dedicating some more effort to our blog. We currently publish a dev update every month and occasionally do a deep-dive on some of the bigger mechanics.

What are some other topics you would like to see covered?

I know it's Thanksgiving, but Tuleonetians are *not* raw turkeys.

Do *not* put Tuleonetians in the oven, and definitely do *not* make sure to bast them every 30 minutes to keep them from drying out.
“We speak in silence.”

The Tuleonetians are a feline people linked by the Meld, a psionic network of telepathy. Once enslaved, they are wary of outsiders yet loyal to allies, divided between nomads and technocrats.
