Lore Across the fortified labor citadels, debtor-mines, indentured manufactories, and labyrinthine customs bastions of Saṃsāra, captivity is an industrial enterprise. Despotic magistrates, monopolistic guild-barons, and predatory bailiffs rely upon heavy cast-iron gyves, arcane lock-matrices, chain-gang tethers, and claustrophobic detention wards to crush the autonomy of those who resist or default. Against this architecture of confinement,…

by

Lore On the claimed reefs of Phoenicia and the outer shelves of Lupemban, curse-work is not only aimed at a person. It is aimed at the ground the person stands on, the water the boat rides, and the post the house is tied to. A household that has been wronged does not always strike the…
