Project Update: One More Book Closes

Remember when I told you I didn't quite manage to finish the Book of Threads in July?

Well...

it's finished.

The third Book of the Silent Læke core rulebook—and the big one dedicated to the game's mechanics—is now fully written.

All the Scenes.
All the cards.
All the Beautiful Darkness.
All the Melancholic Horror.
All the strange little threads that make Silent Læke actually work at the table.

They're finally woven together.
And now?

Book of Threads goes to proofreading.


📖 Next: Book of Whispers

While someone else gets the unenviable task of finding all my mistakes, I'll be moving straight into Book of Whispers, the fourth chapter of the core rulebook.

This is the Book of People, Places and Stuff.
The people you'll meet.
The places you'll visit.
The things you'll find, buy, carry, eat, drink... and occasionally wish you hadn't.

But there's something else significant about this one.
Book of Whispers is the final Book of Part I: To Everyone Who Conquers.

In other words, it's the last Book intended for both Players and the Director.
Once it's finished, the entire Player-facing portion of the Silent Læke core rulebook will be written.

And then...

we cross into Part II: By Demons Be Driven.
Book of Mirrors.
Book of Echoes.

The beautiful and darker secrets.
The things only the Director is supposed to know.
The things Players probably shouldn't even know exist.
So enjoy Book of Whispers while you can.

After that...

Players should probably stop reading.

See you at the lake.

Yours,
