Hi Returning Visitors,
I'm loving how these polls relating to A. Corvin tend to coincide when they have a role within the alpha drops. You will have read (or eventually be reading) how A can be mentioned a few times during J. Corvin's RO excursion. TFS patrons decided on A's pet in this poll: 2023-11-15 13:30:01 +0000 UTC

In Book One, we had more of an introduction to Fernweh and the natural setup of meeting the characters that let us see how the Fernweh Gang was forming. It came toge...

This is just one of several variations depending on your choices! I suspect that fewer of you will uncover this one; they can vary in horror and suspense. This is just a taste. 😱

While our TFS Q&A sessions, both spicy 🔥 and general 🌲, wrapped up in September, I wanted to share this question I received. It has some subtle spooky vibes to it, but it's mainly just Mal being Mal, lol. It's sweet in their own unique way. Our first festive writing publishes in 24 hours!
