- Progress Report and Plan
After several months of writing, the initial lore texts for Electric Hearts and Spirit Animals in Disguise are mostly complete, though details may still be adjusted in the future. With these well-defined settings, my creative direction is clearer, allowing for smoother development of both projects.
