Universes Beyond: A Diatribe For People Who Still Sleeve Their Lands

You’re not crazy. Universes Beyond feels like someone slapped a rainbow paint job on a Toyota Camry and told you it’s a race car. I get it. I took a decade off, opened Arena, and now a wizard summons a bird named after a poultry company and nobody even blinks. The first time I saw […]
