[[In what is presumably a postapocalyptic wasteland, a peasant of some kind greets a laborer carrying a barrel on her back, perhaps a farmer.]]
Peasant: Good monday to you.
Farmer: G’monday.
Peasant: How goes the harvest?
Farmer: The storm yestermonday took its toll. But Josas is working all tomonday to save what he can.

[[A sage, holding a guitar, tells stories to children.]]
Sage: Gather round. Gather round.
Sage: Tomonday, for a tale, we shall look back to a time many mondays ago… a monday when the world was new.
Sage: Back then, there were OTHER -days… soft Toezzday, with her kindly face… Mighty Winnsday, with his bony hump.

Sage: T’uhrsday, a lean fellow with a nervous twitch… and of course mighty Phryday, genial and swift.
Sage: The people of that time new ALL these -days, and others besides; and they moved from one to the next like bees dancing from flower to flower.

[[A child, listening, is cradled by her father.]]
Sage: Like a beast with many tongues they spake with every -day in turn… until jealous Monday began to chafe, and consulted with the dark lord Qarfieyld, round of eye and body…
Ridala: Papa, will Phryday EVER come again to save us?
Father: Hush, Ridala. It’s all just a silly superstition.

My US inventory of games is now in-country, but still being staged at the fulfillment centers. It’s being distributed to regional warehouses, so the actual shipping to backers happens more efficiently. I hope the bulk of US shipping will start next week.

These are what the cartons (and games) look like!

I am also waiting on the bonus cards to be finished printing! I ended up needing many more of those than I had anticipated, so I decided to have the game factory print those too, for perfect matching with the base game cards.

Most people will be receiving two separate mailings: the game itself, and “anything else” (bonus cards and/or add-ons) which will be sent by me personally.

As of today, 86% of backers have completed their surveys so far! That’s pretty good, but it’s not everyone. I know YOU PERSONALLY have already completed YOURS though, so no worries!!

We have now moved OFF of Kickstarter and ONTO BackerKit for any new orders. You can bundle a game with basically anything else I sell on that there website, it’s pretty nuts!
