#Inktober Day 22 - Expensive / Shell


It has been mentioned that humans aren't the only soul-bound mortal dreamers capable of influencing the spirit realms. Cetaceans and cephalopods are among the most notable of the aquatic dreamers, but there are certain long lived crustaceans who also have the ability to achieve the deeper levels of awareness necessary for dream.

Some of the oldest of these dream crabs scavenge the bottom of the dream sead, collecting the detritus of the forgotten and the abandoned, sometimes adorning their shells with the trinkets they find, and sometimes restoring and trading the forgotten back to the shallows where they might come back to the terrestrial realms (whether they are wanted or not).

They're the easiest for most people to wrap their heads around.  But my preferred form of geomorph is based around the hexagon, these tend to produce more organic and interesting shapes. This is true for natural environments, but it's no less true for urban environments. The example set of geomorphs above as a simple two-phase system. One edge type is plain, the other edge type has a road piercing the centre. There could be dozens of combinations and permutations for each of the two phases around the hexagonal edges, but a quick look at the variety of buildings and road shapes shows that there could literally be hundreds of possible options when drawing these map fragments. But you certainly don't need to create hundreds of designs for the system to be effective. Usin
