Within the rot it seems
There's a faint humanity
That speaks to the affliction as it grows
And all I have become
In the years of growing numb
Is perfect in the ways I've come to know

I love how among all the other act bosses of the spire which are like, fucked up robots and slimes and donuts and ancient gods and whatever hexaghost is, you just have like, a really big guy who slaps you
I have visited so many indignities upon this boss. He is my favourite to beat into the ground
Do you like Slay the Spire? I sure do! I liked it so much I wrote an 80k word story about it! Is that long? I don’t know. Is it the longest thing I’ve ever written? You bet your Boot it is! I fought through unmedicated ADHD for two years to finish it!
Follow the Watcher as she climbs the Spire on a mission she can hardly even remember, finding friends(?) and foes along the way!
There’s art!
Lots and lots of art! Most of it is even good!
Some of it is even animated!
If you like to Slay the Spire, give it a read! You can even enjoy it all right here on tumblr, though I do recommend the Ao3 version.
