Don’t think I have taken all this hard work for granite. This is some amazing detail you all are putting into this and I can’t wait to see how it all unfolds.

Boy all this talk about rocks makes me wonder what it must be like to be a paleontologist in this world. Like do the various layers show the ages of science then magic , one after the other. Like if here you can see a layer with a clearly non magical creature and this one is glowing and made me shrink by a 6 inches, definitely magic.

The Subtack model is really a great evolution of the Hickman data pages. While the artists are hard at work, we can still get new explorations of the world. Interludes between the chapters to satiate our hunger!

So it sounds to me like the Judges usually act like Witch Hunters did back in the 1600s, am I correct in assuming that, Mr.Hickman? But this one living with the Vallars has become more like family so his opinions to the Institute would be considered tainted, am I correct in assuming that too? This is all very intriguing, Mr.Hickman. Live long and prosper 🖖

love this world building. I’m interested to see how the family’s scientific research veered toward hierarchy.

I can't get over how excited I get for a map of a house. Does this help with visualizing and writing stories? Or is it more for the immersion of the reader?
