hi evelyn. glad you liked it. i felt it was all coming out cliché really with the language but i tried to keep it consistent... and also most of the names and so on are actually Finnish translations (ahem)

there isnt a second part. i was so far over 2500 words i stopped where it was as i thought it would be easy for readers to fathom the ending from the clues in the last lines.

the images were off Bing image generator. that took ages! the prompt was something like "a fantasy character a cross between an elf and a red panda with big eyes dressed in linen and leather holds a scroll in a dark library with hundreds of scrolls of shelves"

everything looked too much like a red panda haha! and i couldt get a tail in the image it kept saying the images conatined forbidden content every time i included a tail... weird!

That was great! - really fast-paced and immersive. And chock-full of lovely fantasy language. Is there going to be a part two? You ended it on something of a cliffhanger...

I love those images btw - did you get the GIG (Great Image Generator - yes, the one in the sky) to do it? Obviously I especially love the second one - how did you instruct the GIG to produce that kind of creature/intelligent foxy feline-esque girl?
