The ship must be huge if it has different tribes and everything, and the whole mutated jungle taking over parts of it is pretty neat and ominous. Sounds like there are a lot of kind of random but fun things too, like telepathic butterflies. I've definitely never read about that LOL. I'm glad you enjoyed it!Kit @ Metaphors and Moonlighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10113986982046115579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-11144056124896913872017-07-26T14:12:59.275-07:002017-07-26T14:12:59.275-07:00Ooh!!
