And the dead tree gives no shelter, the cricket no relief, and the dry stone no sound of water. When the dead tree bears the fruit of empire, it will all be this. You can't shake it. You can't shake me. Or the burning sky, or the blood, or the ink, or the ash. But there is a part of us that lives forever, and chances taken are rewarded. Stretch your legs, use the space, and I will show you your shadow at evening rising to meet you. I will show you fear in a handful of dust and freedom in the shadow of man. Deep breaths.

RELEASE SCHEDULE UPDATE: My friends and lovers, the next episode of hit podcast Worlds Beyond Number, titled "The Battle of Twelvebrooks, Part 1" will come out on April 29th, and then the next episode two weeks after that, etc etc, until we finish Book 1. We're giving the whole release schedule a lil skooch up one week. Don't worry, we have a delightful replacement treat for you to shove in your head holes during the buffer week. Which head holes? Up to you, comrade. Choose wisely.
SECOND UTILITY PARAGRAPH: Look, you really gotta hear the Twelvebrooks interlude, if you wanna get the most out of the next few eps. It's available on our patreon right now! It's very good, I SWEAR.
