Another tourist here to leave a written cairn on one of the best IF's i've read.
in a way, the fact this will most likely never be finished gives it this sort of greatness, any update could steer either way so for now we're left in this limbo where it will always be perfect, and never be.
Hopefully the creator comes back to it, whether to announce its dead or resume updating, as i love everything about it; the settings, characters, motives, how you can't entirely trust either side. It is rather amazing.
May the deserts treat all of us well.
