I don't know about everyone else, but my grandfather certainly gave me the evil eye. It was kinda painful at first, but I'm grateful he did because now I can see past the veil.
BEYOND WHERE THE STARS LINGER
AND WORLDS DIE
Ahstu, nigh, astram...
@AlexneushoornTheGreat The 'sides' in a war are defined entirely and exclusively by who is fighting in those sides. There is no "side" to change to unless you swap only some members to the other side rather than all of them.

Counterpoint: No they're not. Not 'usually' as far as I've seen anyways. Most have a fair amount of work put into them, most of that group in turn have thought put into them too, but (again as far as I've seen) the vast majority of re-used characters either fall into the "this was part of...
That's quite the entrance there. So much for sneaking around hahaha
Doing alright, though the heat doesn't help the sleepiness...
Hope you're doing good as well :)
