Wintercamp 2025 Roundup
So, we're starting this at the end of week 2 with everyone else, and with 3 prompts left before full 20, gotta say, I'm much more a WorldEmber wonder than a Wintercamp sport. I had full intentions to go full Forbidden Forest, what with the titles of the prompt clusters, but with each of the prompts much more growing the same 5 to 6 world types, I must say the shine wears a little thin. Where people have gone full send off the beaten path has had me smile, but often in those cases the prompt is more of a suggestion to the article they're producing.
Anyways, loving the community feel of the well, community this season and hoping to see more of you freaks around my green little world.

Ending Addendum:
So we finished Wintercamp, lots more demons and demonology than I suspected going in. I'd say the universe is much more 75% Levis 25% Infernus now, though Tyr keeps tap tap tapping away - even though the best horror monsters are left unexplained. Need to weave a bit more tech back into my technomagicry. But now we're into September and gearing up for my own challenges. Tally ho and all that.
Thank you for reading, feel free to give feedback.
