World Building Tip: Research every culture you wish to "emulate"

Example: I wanted some form traditional tattooing for one of my cultures.

So I researched traditional Polynesian tattooing practices not only for 'inspiration' but so I know the cultural significance of the practices I wish to emulate in a fictional setting.

You cannot forget that the practices, places and objects you become inspired by to add to your world have real world ties and roots that you're inadvertently adding to your worldbuilding.

You don't want someone to find something in common with your world building and find it construed in a horrible way--ultimately and sometimes accidently being racist or insensitive to someone elses culture.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to go research Henna.

The eye opened and I wasnt prepared.

Thinking about the reason elias probably chose martin to be the third archival assistant is because martin was already marked by the corruption from his relationship with his mother

the corruption is associated with unhealthy relationships and carehomes so its not unlikey
