Yes! Emrasarie did it!

Emrasarie, I believe in you!

This is so dope!

Whenever Zelaeus speaks, I imagine the voice of voice actor Bill Jenkins.
For you anime fans, that's the voice of the older brother of the Slicer Brothers/Number 48 from Fullmetal Alchemist.

Oh, there's some slight Lovecraftian stuff going on now. We are so back!

So now there's a citadel on the back of some sort of giant, eldritch beast half-submerged beneath the sea and Uralant's armor is a living, sentient, centipede-like creature wrapped around his body.
Oh, this is so like the earliest sword and sorcery stories, I love it!

Okay, this masked sorcerer is like a combo of Severian from The Book of the New Sun and Elric from the eponymous stories.

A sword and sorcery Bonnie and Clyde. I like it!

Not even ten pages into this and I already love the prose. Very Robert E. Howard but with a dusting of Gene Wolfe.
