The two interesting revelations to me from the new doc (or things I probably knew before but had forgotten) was the influence of submarine sims on the light gem concept (i.e., stealth as navigating safe & dangerous spaces) and I'm forgetting the second one but I wrote it in the (

Edit: Oh yeah, the 4 elements thing. I had actually known the magic system was built around the 4 elements, and some people had dome some fanfics about it before. And I even got that the arrows used elemental magic. But for some reason it didn't really click in a way that I remembered that the original arrows, after the normal one, were just the four elements (water, moss, gas, and fire), until they rightfully realized that it'd be dumb not to have useful trick arrows in addition to those four.
