Not everyone has the time, patience, energy, and motivation to create an entirely new language, even one that is limited in scope and/or only has as many components as needed for the story. There's no "simply" about it.

In-person, my social battery is perpetually near empty.

And another, shorter one: If any more of my favourite youtubers do tributes, or any others catch my attention, I'll share them here. :giggle:

I think what impresses me the most about her, is her genuineness, especially her compassion. Looking at the world now, that feels like a rare trait to have, and it shouldn't be.

Just like me! 😝 [I'm not actually that short, but, close enough.]

It's possible to have non-cliched anything, more or less. It's all a matter of how you use it.

Welcome! Sounds like an interesting premise. Some questions. Where are they getting their supplies and food from, both for them and the horses [if you have horses, maybe you have something else as mounts, but either way, they still need food and water]. Further complications will result from...
