What's the general tech level of this world, and how pervasive is magic?
OOPS only just saw this one, let’s answer this bad boy.
General tech level is mostly steam-powered stuff like Tiny Tin. Anything more advanced usually uses magic.
The pervasiveness of magic depends on the region, as magic is bound to specific materials or lifeforms in nature. For example, Cascadia is known for its use of Springstones, a magic mineral that allows for the manipulation and even the creation of water. Other introduced magical materials so far include Bloomgems, Pyrefish, and Flaries.
I don’t wanna go into too many specifics right now, since after this current arc concludes I’ll be going into all this stuff a lot more and I’m afraid I may get kinda spoilery. But I hope that was enough to sate you for now!
