You're descriptions and knack for storytelling are astounding. Nice work, DoubleBlind! Good luck.

Once again, another incredible story!! Despite the short word count, you immerse readers so deeply into a world that already feels very fleshed out, like we've already visited this place. The contrast of nature vs. tech was very unique. Loved this! Hated to see this one end, I could read an entire series based in this world. Bravo!

This is incredible. The world feels lived-in and real. Despite so many new concepts and terms, I followed along on the edge of my seat. The balance between world building and character exploration is perfect. Fantastic job!

This story floored me! In so few pages, you managed to vividly create a whole world/system brimming with intriguing possibilities and mythology, as well as characters who feel fully fleshed out. The balance between character development/personality and worldbuilding was skillfully handled. It felt like the characters were there to help tell the story, as opposed to just serving as exposition machines. Especially for a short story like this, the latter is such an easy trap to fall into, but you manage to avoid it -- with style! Tremendous work!
