waaaaait can I learn a little of their history?? I mean, only things Jäger would tell Griffin of course- okay but what about climate and terrain type as well as proximity to either a river, body of water, and/or a warm water port? hehe thank you! I keep wanting to make a grumpy Griffin picture but I always default to a thinking face with him for some reason?

Well, we don't have everything planned out yet but they're both nobles so you can maybe guess a bit of it. - Good question- I'm honestly not sure. Probably a mix of coastal and forest/plain so that they can do farming and ports. - I mean, I tend towards a really sweet face with Jäger even though he isn't that sweet.

hmmm okay I am suspicious of whatever might be planned but also very curious okay with plains, forests, and a large warm water port, the human society is probably booming. Like, lumber at a time where wood is needed for practically everything, fertile plains for large farming, and a massive fishing and trading industry will lead to a pretty well off city. As long as they are managing their reasources well, (replanting trees, not overfishing, and especially making sure to trade off which fields are used for farming, burn unused fields, and sow seeds at night) then there is no doubt this is a profitable city by this point with money to spare on bettering its society (ie in the middle of improving schools, giving money to religious institutions, and upgrading infrastructure). With the assumption they have not moved from somewhere else and that this has been built up to for decades and is not a sudden boom in profits that they are now using to improve the city, the change will most likely be welcomed too by all except for corrupt individuals which there definitely will be plenty of because of the feudal monarchy system in combination with the wealth. I just realized how much I wrote but too tired to delete anything so- sorry- I will add more about the actual thing if you want this is just kinda my thought process- but he looks so pure and sweet! how can you tell me he is anything but that??

As you should be, haha - Oooo, okay I totally feel like the Monarchy would be more corrupt, lots of rulers were in the medieval period. They probably pay commoners unfairly and instead of using the profits the have from absolutely everything, they instead use it on fancy buildings, parties/balls/feasts, and all of that sort of thing. - You're completely fine, your ranting thought processes help me figure things out too lol - Hehehe, pretty easily.

okay so if you are saying there would be little improvement in the city then there would definitely be murmurs of unrest especially if people find out about the balls and fancy buildings. if we take into account that most of the money is going to that sort of thing and not into maintaining and building the land, then there might not be a proper hydrolic system in place near the farms or even near the town (since they would presumably have to dump waste in the streets). This would lead to sinkholes during wet seasons and/or heavy fires during dry season resulting in the displacement of families where most would leave the city to find a new life elsewhere in either a mixed town or a human settlement that moves from place to place. okay just let me know if you want me to stop then lol how...? can you actually just give me a brief sentence on his personality?

Yeah, the human kingdom probably looks good at the center where the wealth is but then the further out from the center you get, the worse it is. - I shall give you one bit of it. He's actually rather two-faced and manipulative.

exactlyyyy! What kind of religions are there for humans and what is the monarchy/religion relationship? is it like that the church is more powerful or is it equal or is the monarchy supreme? should I be concerned for Griffin...? ALSO! I found a song that perfectly summarizes how Cal desperately tries to get Aries to like him back: "Talk Too Much." I heard it before but it just came up on my playlist now and I just thought Id tell you.

Not sure yet- Probably a widespread monotheistic one. Mages already got the polytheistic theocracy lol I'd say the monarchy has more power but the church also isn't like, powerless. If that makes sense. - Mmm, I don't think so? - That song works so well, wow- Definitely.

Yeah that makes sense. like during King Henry VIII where he had more power than the church, but the church still controlled common people for the most part also if it is possible to make two characters, I might make a mage because I love doing things with polytheism okay good! Jäger is going to be the only person Griffin genuinely smiles for at the beginning of the story so these two better not have alterior motives for each other hehe yeah. only one other song I know matches their energy perfectly but this is perfect. those two are just- I love them so much <333

Yeah, exactly like that! - I'll be letting people play two characters, yeah. I haven't decided if I want to get myself lol If you make a mage too then that'll mean we already have 2 mages, 1 elf, and 1 human. - Yeah, that would be very bad and sad if that were to happen :3 - Ooo, what's the other song?
