Someday, I'll finally write the novel all these posters are referencing. But until then, yay more fake fan art of something that isn't there yet!

This seems like the right setting for some just-progressed-out-of-steampunk, historical fiction. Set in an alternate universe Philippines. Willing to lose some rest hours reading more. Even if its just mroe pos

And that numbering system for the islands is great in a way. Maybe make it part of an identification system for citizenry like a social security code

Thanks! The number #7089 is actually the name of the island--significantly named because this is the newest island of this Philippines, the 7089th.

This is a Philippines that, thanks to an incredible impact in its distant past, stunted its geologic growth. Mindoro, Palawan, and its adjacent islands are not part of the Philippines.

Instead, they're hugging closer to the Chinese shoreline like Taiwan. Most of its history is very much the same with ours but Mindoro and Palawan being part of China creates some interesting conflicts about

Philippine territory. This island, #7089, was artificially created right on disputed waters, east of Dipaculao, Aurora, Luzon. It's a hub for some resourceful innovation far way from prying Philippine gov hands

The impact event also has further repercussions, plot device that it is. It scatters and endows the nearby landmasses with Pitchblende (Uraninite.) Weak radiation over the years has allowed for some strange

mutations among endemic species. Like the kilometer tree in the last poster.

I actually discussed a lot about this with Nigel History buff that he is.

More posters for the faint-hearted

You, my friend, are an angel. So glad you didn't call the Sears Tower the "Willis" Tower.

Ha ha The story is set somewhere in the mid-to-late nineties so I'm not sure when the name changed to Willis (I was surprised myself after a google search.)

It changed in the mid 2000s, the pricks <_<

No self-respecting "Chicagoan" or Suburban Chicagoan will ever call it "Willis". It's the "Sears Tower" and always will be!
