The Grand Tapestry
A blog for The Urutsk Cycle and Related Subjects,
including the URUTSK: World of Mystery RPG.
Shipwrecked survivors of a galaxy-spanning empire (ruined when the core exploded) settle upon a wetlands world occupied by humans and other species. They then poke through ruins of their Ancient ancestors as they strive to regain space and then, starflight.

Terrible
Those deadly tornadoes... and the season is still getting started...
Best of luck to those in Tornado Alley and outlier places which see those storms. My heart goes out to them.
Here's to hoping for the best.

Castle Doctrine
I was watching a video about affluent enclaves in the US, and one mansion reminded me of the Hurst mansion outside of Toronto, Ontario, Canada which I visited one afternoon back in 2002 or 3. My host, a native, seemed upset that I wasn't impressed.
The truth is this: when I was 5, I had toured multiple European castles, and so it is difficult to impress me with lesser things.
Likewise, my father, being an immigrant and my mother being 1st generation American, I had not only seen sites of historical importance when I was 2 on our trip through Europe by car, but had already been exposed to about a dozen countries' cultures, language, and architecture, let alone natural wonders, that when others had talked about visiting amazing to them locations, I was unimpressed with their choices while still finding their desires interesting for their reasons.
When I met you, Marissa, I was impressed beyond words.

At the bottom of the box: Hope
I couldn't stand all the ads while listening to my playlists on YouTube, where I had been happily listening for years, so I downloaded Pandora again.
My new channel was playing your songs, and a mix of other performers and acts, when, Ventura Highway, by America, came on.
Wow, I can't remember the last time I had heard it all the way through. ...
The combination of your, The Sun Always Reminds Me of You, and, the acoustic guitar on Ventura just made me so glad, -- truly happy that I have met you; both musically, and of course, personally -- and the beautiful gift of guitar I have received from this -- Whew! Girl, you have rocked my world! I will never be the same, and so happy everytime I hear lovely acoustic guitar, like yours... Your ear for the instrument is spiritual, not just mechanical. My inspiration, Marissa, truly.
I love the hell out of you,
🖤K
