Age, Anniversaries and Life Expectancy
Since yesterday was my birthday (yay me!) I have decided to take today to talk briefly about birthdays and other age-related issues on Halci.
Book 2 Extras
Looking forward to Book 2, I know it’s going to need more supplemental material than the first book had (which was just a local map). I have a few ideas so far, but for those who have actually read the … Continue reading
