Approaching deck release date, esp with bsky being wonky, a reminder that I put shop details on Patreon, which you can join as a FREE member in which case it functions as a newsletter that emails you when I update www.patreon.com/c/crimbly . Any pledge is extra appreciated of course!
What’s the most iconic line in Final Fantasy history?
100% agree. Writing is just as much about discovering what you don’t like as it is developing your craft.
just start. the only way to write when it's due, in the end, is to write. if it's garbage you can bin it later but you sometimes just need to get the bad stuff out so the good stuff can come out after
…and everything outside represents chaos (savagery). Furthermore, the god best known for defending Asgard against the giants is Thor. [3/3]
Similarly, early in the Norse myth cycle, the gods had a vast fortification built around the heavenly realm of Asgard to protect them from the primitive giants. The term ‘gardr’ itself refers to a boundary or enclosure, where everything inside the gardr represents order (civilization)… [2/3]
According to #Logos, when the Veldermarke claimed dominion over northern Ash centuries ago, King Thorbjorn erected great ramparts along its borders to separate the “civilized” world from the “savage” human and beastmen tribes beyond. The construct would come to be known as the Ravenwit Walls. [1/3]
The more I read of #Logos, the happier I get with the observations I’ve presented in Mythos. There are so many examples of Logos reaffirming or elaborating on something I’ve discussed from a mythological perspective. I’ll share one from early in the tome later today.

I’m really sorry to hear that. She was a beauty.
Happy 6th birthday to Final Fantasy VII Remake, the game that made us feel like we were going home.
What’s your favourite memory from playing this?
Tifa’s endgame weapons in FFVII Rebirth are the Járngreipr, meaning “Iron Grippers” in Old Norse. They’re named after the gloves of Thor, the Norse god of storms. This may explain why the Járngreipr are found in the ToA’s Corridor of Currents, amid the Lifestream tempest.
If you're still on the fence about backing the Kickstarter campaign for my new book, Myths & Traditions That Inspired Final Fantasy Tactics, the premium VIRGO TIER now only has 5 slots left.

Since Dad Bowser is relevant again, I made this radio play a few years ago about Bowser trying to be a better Koopa youtu.be/t8-s8mNA5R0?... I just listened to it again, and I’m actually still really proud of it. It’s pretty charming.
One might say it’s a ‘burning’ passion
Meanwhile, somewhere in London, I’m having a romantic getaway with my new love…
Hugely appreciated, pal! It really means a lot.
Happy to back and support @mjgallagher.bsky.social with his latest project focused on FF Tactics.
