Chapter XV — At the earths core

The presence of lidis, enormous four-footed beasts used as mounts by distant tribes, introduces new allies and threats all at once. These nomadic riders, initially wary, offer insights into the scale and diversity of civilizations buried beneath…-

Chapter XIII — Gulliver of Mars
Chapter XIII opens as Gulliver descends from the icy highlands into a world both familiar and starkly different. The land is rough, clothed in pines and dark foliage that recall Earth’s primeval forests, though everything here feels exaggerated, as if nature on Mars is more ancient and more deliberate. Small villages dot the terrain, their people weathered but welcoming in a cautious way. Here, society values clarity and identity, so introductions matter more than in the ceremonial courts of the richer…-
