Oh dear me, no. I dislike Discord, and have no idea why people can't simply use these wonderful forums, the telegram system, or our regional message board.

So, I've decided to modify some of the demographic stuff for Yan. If possible, I'd like to add three or four species for the species page on the main website.

Sure. Just make sure you give me enough information about each, and preferably a picture. Otherwise I'll sift Google and find one that I think fits.

Hey, it's rather confusing to think up a history and/or plan future events with our current calendar. May I suggest we switch to the RL calendar instead? Or at least make this worlds' calendar have 12 months?

That doesn't sound like too bad an idea, actually.

I'll consider it. I was rather proud of my calendar...

What's the confusing aspect? Perhaps I can explain better?

The names of the months are cool and all, but the fact that each day takes 28 hours and a year only has 350 days kinda makes things too unfamiliar to implement.

Symbols tentatively associated with the Cities of Wisdom. Their inhabitants, their culture, their glories and their follies.

The goal was to keep the day count similar to our own, but having 7 months, as 7 is meant to be a sort of holy number for Meridia. I'm not going to point them out, but there's many parts of Meridia designed around the number 7. This meant more days per month, but I did not think this cumbersome, as in my real life it usually takes me two or three months to realize I haven't flipped the page on my calendar anyways. The 28 hour day was simply to add some flavour, but can be changed to 24, if that would make things easier.

Did an image mess up or is one literally supposed to be slavery? The rest are so pretty and symbolic; and then hands holding a chain...with a Shuttershock watermark. Like I said, though, the rest are super cool.

Thank you!

Slavery is common amongst the cat-clans of Elysia. Peoples and cultures are varied things - with practices both beautiful and... not so much.

The Hyena-folk of Akamyir have sent the first vast fleets of ships to the world. Full of merchants and adventures, they search for magic, riches and a cure for their infant mortality. The go across all corners but one ship's tale is the most important. This ship full of adventurers have found a nation full of riches and magic left by the Shadow and their story is how they came back as heroes, enemies, or never returned.

Someone want to do first contact?

Do you plan on a contact by sea or at that ancient nation's ruins?

By sea first, the ancient ruins come later.

I think you guys should meet me on the island. Accidentally stumbling upon each other during exploration sounds okay.

As Taledonians are starting to be everywhere, including Alakhai, I'd be game for shooting your junks with proper Royal Navy vessels having some sort of first contact.
