Update 11th May 2021 (final): We now have the completed version of the page from Luis so we've updated this post accordingly so we can preserve the page order when you click on the Neese tag (especially after all that trouble we took to get everything into the right order after all that time it w...

2021-04-20 20:15:00 +0000 UTC View PostAs you know, because of Scott being very busy among other things, he's handed the running of Exiern over to me. The other issue is financial. Exiern usually costs more to make than it earns (about $1400 US/month cost versus around $500 US/month as of recently only income).
Things have chang...

Received the new page from Scott about an hour ago but I only woke up again about 30 minutes ago and I had to wait for the computer to finish updating because now seemed like a good enough time to do that while I was asleep.
The poll to vote on the title for this page is here:
Scott came up with a title for the next Exiern page and then I did too. Order chosen by randomised coin toss. Vote for your preferred choice below!

Yes, I do realise we already have a Dark Reflections: Chaos page of the same name - especially given I named it! (How's everyone finding DR: Chaos so far by the way?)
Seems an even better fit here, though!

There's a few different ways written descriptions can be interpreted by an artist, isn't there?
I would say, definitely Not Safe for Work by our standards!
