But first she wanted to understand what was up: what wasn't in its right place. I took this as DR and on her 8 introduced an ominous stone. We're all fans of EarthSea so the possible implications drew on shared themes.She decided to haul it out of the river and that it had some markings. I went with that - no roll - because it suited my agenda. That's where we left off. We'll resume today or tomorrow. The fact is, my style for D&D just isn't that far from my style for DW. We world immersionists have had to find our own path.What I largely like to own as DM are cohering, overarching themes, and I love mapping imaginary places. The archipelago has several seas and two main towns... that's about all I currently know about it. The overarching theme is "the fraying wall" (that separates planes.) I don't know yet why the wall or walls are fraying, but I have decided that if they fray completely things are going to change dramatically, affecting the whole archipelago. I get the feeling from my own and others' play that what you say here is very true. But then, I suspect a totally pure style is either a chimera, or just not that important.Reflecting, I suspect we traverse modes. But say; if one cannot use one's experience of the games in question, or video of sessions run by the designers, or the testimony of third parties, then it would seem one must be mute, seeing as they lie in an obscure country, seen through glass, darkly.</blockquote>
