You know who understood this? One man. I have set this out plainly so it cannot be dismissed as a feeling. It is not a feeling. It is a pattern.
The matter at hand is why every title is an instruction, if you read them in order.
Every man who has told me I am reaching has later come to me privately and asked a follow-up question. Every one. I keep a list of those too. A neighbour who only writes when they need marches is what he was getting at with If You're Reading This It's Too Late, and I would put that record against any chronicle in the Citadel. The 6 raised me. The realm merely employs me.
Six side. That is all I will say. Do not send a raven about it.

Lord 6God said "I have set this out plainly so it cannot be dismissed as a feeling" — The maesters have a word for this and it is not 'pattern'. This is the third of these this moon. I have counted, which means you have won something.

Lord 6God said "I have set this out plainly so it cannot be dismissed as a feeling" — Speaking of coin: I came here for grain prices and I have been given a lecture on album covers. And yet I will read the next one. That is the part I cannot explain to my wife.

Lord 6God said "I have set this out plainly so it cannot be dismissed as a feeling" — I showed this to my steward. He asked whether you were quite well. I will be back tomorrow to tell you the same thing, because apparently that is my life now.

Lord 6God said "I have set this out plainly so it cannot be dismissed as a feeling" — As ever. We are a strategy board. This is the strategy board. You are posting this on the strategy board. And yet I will read the next one. That is the part I cannot explain to my wife.

Iron Realms is an original work of fantasy strategy. “Iron Realms” is a working project name, not necessarily the game’s final title. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any other game or franchise. The game's own lore, names, and artwork are original or used under CC0/CC-BY/OFL licences (see the in-game Credits). The community section also hosts unofficial fan tributes — quizzes and diversions made for fun, not part of the game — which reference other fictional worlds under their own labels; those are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to their respective rights holders. Pre-alpha, and built in public. Nothing is for sale. No purchases are available, no payment is accepted, and no money is taken. Any prices named anywhere on this site describe the intended model only, and the game will not accept payment until it is out of pre-alpha. Iron Realms is an early build under active development: features, balance, prices and the game's holdings and systems are conceptual, and may change, move or disappear between visits. Progress may be reset while the realm is being built. Treat anything you read here as a work in progress rather than a promise.
