Ok, we're calling it now. 2025 is OFFICIALLY the year of the #Oneiromancers! Back in August 2023, we announced this was happening... Stick with us for more updates, as we begin developing our most ambitious project of all time, all throughout this year🌘 #IndieAnimation #B3D

Both are in their work uniform and draped in formal oneiromancy capes, each showing bages with their initials, rank, and faction insignia.

Keep making art. Keep writing your stories. Even if they must exist in secret for a time, they are important - each of them a little act of rebellion. Most of all, keep on living. If you can muster no other motivation on some days, then do it out of righteous spite for those who want you gone.
