Ah, good ole Edward Teach... Anyway, yes, I am doing this. My big bad's name is Umbra, which means nothing really in the language of my world, but in English and other languages has heavy connotations that also end up being a bit of a red herring... Almost every 'real' name you might think of...

In my current WIP, the planet the story takes place on pretty much all believe that they know the truth of the universe, although it's only vaguely hinted at or explained what their actual supposed 'knowledge' is beyond a few key details. By the end of the book, the reader learns that clearly...
