Worlds Beyond Number WWW #17: Say My Name
Names are great. They let people know what to call things. You can read them, write them, put them on a list. If you know someone's name you can send them things, invite them places, say it quietly, in wonder or fear. A name can stick in your mouth like butter or blood. You can make one up, get a new name, do whatever you want. No downsides. None.
Worlds Beyond Number is:
and is produced, designed, and scored by Taylor Moore at Fortunate Horse.

Some additional ambient sound design comes from Michael Ghelfi Studios. You can get their sounds and music for your home games and VTT as well, which we enthusiastically recommend.
