Two Weeks until 1000 Steps!

🌙 TWO WEEKS until A THOUSAND STEPS INTO NIGHT! 🌙  Any good fictional road trip will include a fun cast of characters, and I’m REALLY excited for you to meet all the curious creatures Miuko meets on her journey across the Japanese-influenced realm of Awara! Here’s a small sampling of some of my favorites:



🐦 Geiki, a very good bird boy and thieving magpie spirit

😈 Tujiyazai, a vengeance demon

🐴 Roroisho, utterly magnificent, not a talking horse

👻 some ghosts

🌳 Nogadishao, a feral forest god with mushrooms for eyes

🐵 several monkeys who are bad at driving

💀 a very forgetful skeleton warrior
