The World Has Ended Due To Wars And Magic, What Words Are You Keeping, What Words Are You Removing, And

The world has ended due to wars and magic, what words are you keeping, what words are you removing, and what words are you adding to the English language?

Oh hey, Thoth here, you don’t mind if I just set this envelope containing a little snippet of what I’m working on your desk would you?… alright then… Just don’t open it, ok?

Open the envelope?:

“My name is Lyfrassir Edda, I am the new Head Archivist of The Magnus Institute, London. Due to recent events I have acquired a job here. Before this I worked as an inspector, and perhaps that’s what got me hired. Either way my employer, one Ms. Carmilla, seems happy with my placement here, and who am I to complain about getting a paycheck. She has given me three assistants. Their names are Ivy Alexandria, Raphaella La Cognizi, and… Marius Von Raum… I will not say much about them, but I hope I will not be needing their assistance often.”

Sometimes you just have to render a particularly nice panel in a comic where a character look’s especially pretty. There’s another one on the last page I want to render too but this one was a lot less difficult and didn’t have any perspective hubjub, so I did the one first and might do the other one if I’m feeling it.

Loretober Day 1: Parasite

Over the years, a group of vampire bats adapted to the cold and lack of food brought by nuclear winters by feeding on the one food source which was rare, yet once found was hard to lose. The kaiju which roamed the earth after the first two catastrophes were an open food source, seeing as they don’t die easily, and are easy to spot.

One thing which does make this food source a bit iffy, is the fact kaiju are magical, and have the ability to shrink in size when needed. To combat this, the bats have adapted to detect magic, and when their host is no longer of a size they can latch onto, they will lurk about the area of the kaiju until it returns to its natural size. After a long enough duration of waiting however, they will fly off and look for a new host.

Since kaiju tend to have thick skin, they use their tounge in much the same way a mosquito would, but as they don’t use the blood to spawn, they stay in place more like a tic would.

Also expanding on this, what pieces of pop culture, scientific knowledge, literature, and/or history would you keep?
