    We're honoured and grateful and thrilled and also very confused to have got a shout-out in Gizmodo today as part of the wider This Is How You Lose The Time War story (thank you very much for repping us, Bigolas Dickolas ❤️)
    When Bigolas Dickolas Wolfwood—a young artist who asked to be referred to as “Bun” or “Mr. Bigolas” in order to preserve their anonymity—went viral because they tweeted about how much they loved a sci-fi book that I also desperately loved, I knew I had to talk to them. They were excited, extremely positive, and approached the whole thing with a sense of humor, clearly poking fun at the whole situation, despite their earnest, deep love for what they were talking about.

When asked for other speculative media they enjoyed, Bun recommended Oshi no Ko. “The first episode was incredible, and I’m curious to see how it will play out!” They are also effusive about audio drama The Silt Verses. “It centers around a world where deities are exploited for capitalistic gain. For example, you want your fast food place to sell more chicken sandwiches? Make a sacrifice to the Utterer of A Thousand Clucks! Now your business has its own successful (and possibly violent) patron!”

    Feeling incredibly excited and lucky to have been reading over some of @GauntletRPG drafts for the Silt Verses RPG! Gabriel & Jason are ridiculously talented folks and I think it's going to be something really special.

    On 21 March, a prophet comes home. The second season of The Silt Verses begins with 'And The Current Flows Without End.' We'll see you at the river's rise.
    A man's arm, clutching a staff, stood in a dingy church - approaching an altar. A painting over the altar depicts a hooded figure with crab-legs.

The caption is a quote from Katabasian Mason. It reads, "As I said, my friends...the Trawler-Man is a god of wonders."
