Episode 222: Speakers of the Dead (City of a Thousand Tongues Part 1)
"Where lies the strangling fruit that came from the hand of the sinner I shall bring forth the seeds of the dead to share with the worms..."
—Jeff VanderMeer, Annihilation
New patron and first-time prompt-submitter Ewan introduces us to Palimpsest, a city empowered by language and slime molds. We build it up with mysterious poetry, eerie choirs, and layers upon literal layers of construction...But can you read the writing on the wall to learn what lurks at the center of this labyrinthine metropolis?
