[quote=@chokesonphlegm] It's the best feeling when a story you're working on manages to write itself! Having it flow really easily and that freedom to tap into more supernatural and thematic elements to reach outcomes must be really satisfying. Will you delve into the lore behind the spirits and what drives them to consistently help Nathair in this pattern? (even if some attempt to misguide him) It's a pretty nice blend of realistic fiction and fantasy; I'd love to know more.

All my spirits appear in rivers/large bodies of water or in deep forest/where mist coalesces. They're the spirits of Nathair's ancestors and the mountains. Nathair summons them throughout the story in search of answers. I'll likely never name them specifically, as I believe naming the paranormal/supernatural takes away from its power. But perhaps during the second or third arc I'll address why he's so connected to the Gaelic spirits of his people. That reminds me, there is a beautiful episode in Vikings where the characters go on pilgrimage to a shrine (Uppsala) and the show-writers address many of the themes represented throughout the series. I'll likely do something similar because I also find it really fucking cool to delve deeper into these topics![/color]
