"THE BANK knows that on the far reaches of some distant moon, magic is making a return. And THE BANK wants to seriously consider this investment opportunity."
Ha! Glad THE BANK can be so helpful, and really add value, getting in on the ground floor of the whole cycle change at bargain prices.
Ready for more on that upstart corporation! Liked the description of low level industry on AKVA paints a great picture.
Would love to see an anthology comic just set on Fayrii, something that really gives a glimpse into all these different varieties of players in the monarchical game, it's such a great playground
How much back and forth is there before we get this document? Do Ram V, Tini, and Al have free reign over these systems and you all take the ideas and run from here, or is there a lot of collaboration to get to this point in the process?
Ok. While reading this I envisioned a character that can personify the dynamic between the KHOR miners on AKVA and the leaders of religion; a real salt of the earth kind of character to dramatize the internal struggle that must be happening. The Bank & The Lab (architecturally) sound like they may actually look very similar; mirror images, fitting pieces to a puzzle or diametrically opposites, where one is built to be a skyscraper and the other inverted into the ground to either safeguard the wealth or access the core (or both). Therra sounds like it’s going to have the most naturally beautiful landscape out of the 3 worlds and 3 moons. So much escapes me from previous posts but the economic status of a place gives it more character than most other aspects in my opinion. Great imaginative exercise! Thanks!
If you read these updates in Werner Herzog's voice then it makes it even more enjoyable. Especially if you end this one with "Economics is a complicated profession".
What is the ultimate storage of value in this system? Storywise the underlying fragility of any economic infrastructure is good source for drama. Mined KHOR would be the obvious choice and a well stablished asset by now, if I understood the whole "mining one's continuity" rule. On the other hand, another good story could be how FAYRII and AKVA both gave up seigniorage (aka ability to create their own currency to pay for expenses) to THE BANK syndicate and how THE BANK's own credibility is now the cornerstone of the whole credit system.
I understood nothing about this but appreciate how detailed this is. I really hope all of this writing is collected in an omnibus/bible so I can thumb through it once the comic gets into full swing

The Bank reminds me of the Vatican, minus the religion. Lots of mystery and history.
And also the possibility of ancient artifacts that could change the 3W3M universe.
Most machinery requires a key... even the ancient kind!
The bank is definitely interesting. Kind of reminds me of the bank in the later Joe Abercrombie novels.
curious how KHOR plays into the syndicates activity in general and if it plays a direct role in commerce.

I’m most curious about those who are not fools.
I feel that way IRL! lol
Loved reading this, starting to paint a vast mental map the worlds and moons
