Aw, thank you! It's always nice to hear something positive, and that people are enjoying the world/lore. I still have a ways to go as a writer but I'm still trying to live up to some of the stuff I've read, especially Dune (the first one) and Ender's Game/Ender's Shadow as some books I really love with great writing styles.
Combat has been... a struggle to get right lol, but I'm glad I stuck with it. I'll keep refining it as I go, but it's starting to get to a place I like, and a decent mix of complexity but relatively easy to figure out. Very good to hear that's working for you~ thanks for brightening my day a bit!
