#FantasyIndiesJune 11: MC's favorite childhood memory
Dorilian remembers his brother's first word ("Dor") and that Lev knew and saw him. He remembers feeling whole.
Hans remembers sailing the coastal waters with his Moms, Irmgard and Geraldine, in the Dominion. They were loving and fun!
3. The Three Sisters, remnants of Aryati/Leur magitech.
Huge orbs of light suspended--one above each landing leading to the Rill complex--in Sordan's Dekkora, the Sisters have burned for tens of thousands of years. On their Return, Amynas and the Leur had a picnic beneath them.
#JuneWorldbuilders 11: Unique art or architecture
So many! I'll mention three:
1. Mormantalorus. Third of the remaining Cities, built on an active magma chamber at the foot of a volcano. Leur magic shields the City and renders it inhabitable. It's lovely.

2. The statue of Amynas in Sordan's Dekkora (public square).
This heroic and very grand statue stands in the center of a fountain with three sprays representing the Three, the gods Leur created from Amynas's human flesh. As Arne notes, the statue has a smooth, anonymous face.
#WIPSnips The word for June 11 is GRIPE
I used the word "complain" instead. Neither Kate nor the nomari "gripe." In this snip Kharys researches the old Ibisian archives, seeking answers to questions he's had for a very long time.

Just finished reading this one and I liked it quite a bit! Good old fashioned fantasy story about overthrowing an evil king,and the 2nd person was done quite well. Would recommend.
