I’ve been playing the game The Light Brigade recently - though narratively barebones, it has an inspired and fascinating premise which I’ll want to talk more about at some point. “These are the nightmares which Tolkien grappled with in the course of writing The Lord of the Rings”, is how you'll hear me describe it. For reference as to (intended?) tone, you’ll see me namedrop Joanna Newsom’s album Divers, Comus’ album First Utterance, perhaps Mamoru Oshii’s film Avalon…?
