The way this piece plays with control and impossible instructions is so incredibly effective. I also particularly love the use of tautologies. Lends this sense of inevitability and dread to the whole thing. Seriously, I feel like I'm learning so much by reading this -- about how to use the language of TTRPGs to deliver gut punches, about characterization, about ambient worldbuilding. I can't accurately describe the emotion I felt when reaching the end, and that's really good.
Also, thank you for including a dyslexia friendly version! This prompted me to start doing that with my stuff from now on.
this comment really touched my heart, thank you so much for the kind words. this was my first time trying a lyric game and i wasnt sure if it really "fit" anywhere so im glad to hear it was effective :)
