[violant-apologia]

another thing that was so cool about the railway ws that it fleshed out existing characters through the board meetings as WELL as introducing new characters to get invested in. firmament has kinda just thrown exlusively new characters at us. they're not even bad characters; some of them are pretty great! but like... i'd be so much more willing to accept the immanent at face value if i got to see a character i already knew expressing the same confusion as me, y'know? having established guys around really helps loop new content into the greater picture
