rivers solomon @riverssolomon.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Yes, all of this as far as what might be nice to see out of fantasy in the upcoming years, but for me, also: slowness, reduced scale/epicness (without having to make it a particular flavour of "cosy"),academic-level considerations into the worldbuilding especially re: economics. 2335
