...flower, so they have no gender. They're fluid throughout the books.

While hiding, they were adopted by a gnome and a dragon in a cave under the city. Izzy now wants to be an actor.

IT'S COMPLICATED AND NOT MARKETABLE!

Therefore, I've sadly set Cold Iron aside.

Cold Iron is on the backburner because it is so weird. It's a 1940's murder mystery horror series starring a fae masquerading as a mortal (of which there is quite the variety).

Fae in this universe are eldritch horrors. Soldiers come home half tree and with no face because someone else is...

...and electricity, which is new in this world. These are all seen as disgusting and dangerous, but cheap and acceptable.

A rich man would never use gas for his car, and war machines are 'smarter' with the power crystals, so automatons are not build with another power source in mind.

They also do this to control the flow of power from a crystal throughout machines like automatons, airships, and warships. Yes, machines can use gas (petrol for non-Americans)...

I mentioned yesterday, power crystals (batteries essentially) are a carefully guarded government secret. In this universe, that's the same as a church secret.

Mana lines for directing raw mana's power is not! Engineers, both conjurors and mundane, make enchanted channels and...

Arcanafauna are people, they just don't build houses act like humans. Why would a unicorn need to? Biscuit the unicorn and Lapis the beetle are just as much characters as humans.

There are 'mundane' animals, meaning they're not arcane, like cats, dogs, and an octopus.

It's a lot tougher than just the fish are gone. The few people who can't leave yet are relying on outside supplies for the most part.

Thalia is defiant, but not so much stubborn. It took her 22-23 years to truly become rebellious outside of scandalous fashion and passive aggressive behavior.

She's more bullheaded now, but she'll listen to those she respects.

Machined clothes are newly commonplace. I'm certain the secondhand market for textiles is still good business.

In the case of power crystals from mana, their production is a carefully guarded government secret.

Humans are a capitalistic, industrial species. I base the setting off of the mid 1910's, but their machines are more advanced than ours in many ways.

Broadly speaking, there's many farms, mines, wells, ships, factories, and artisans for turning any raw material into a product.

I don't wish we could abolish gender, I just wish it were less an identity and more of a hobby. So you'd get people who are like "Oh yeah, l'm a woman when I have the time," or "I'm a man but I'm not very good at it yet" along with the CrossFit gender types who are SUPER INTO IT

to fire, especially buildings. I call the arson moths.

Book 3, I'm making conjuration spiders called Gloom Spiders! They're gonna be fun.

Most other arcanafauna in my books are modified versions of real world mythologies because why shouldn't unicorns be carnivorous?

Yes! I make a new magic bug a game!

On the left is my sky horn beetle, a carrion beetle that eats arcane corpses (and berries), and breeds like blowflies. They're conjurors, meaning they use mana to make things.

Right is a passion fly, plant growing moths attracted...

That's Rufus the passion fly!

He mistakes an undead elementalist inhabiting an automaton for a burning structure and passion flies are attracted to burning ruins. They grow plants--botanical being an arcana humans can't usually get.
