Yeah no FATT is my obsession but the early seasons are definitely much harder to get into. Partizan and Sangfielle are much better for getting into it. They're all pros by Partizan and they have the world and the themes all mapped out in a way that makes everything flow.

The fact that, whatever the setting, those themes tend to be about the effects of imperialism on people and the land is what makes it really special though. Like Sangfielle- we've gotten kinda used to cosmic horror. But cosmic horror where the slow breakage of reality is explicitly caused by the scars empire left on the land is a twist on it that I've genuinely never seen.

Sangfielle Setup"They wanted to fence it in. Rows of corn and cane, columns of people. Nations reduced to gardens. Is it any wonder the ground itself started to ache? See, the truth of the Heartland- the truth of the world- is that it cannot be fenced in."
