Some world building

<< < (3/3)

What Came Before:

--- Quote from: Callan S. ---I realised what paused me on writing out the farmlands/egyptian thing. I had farm labourers and an incongrous, single pyramid, with ghostly figures walking the lands and farmers simply ignoring them as they had for generations. But I had no landmine - each of my prior world building had some sort of situation on the edge of detonation. I realise this because I came up with that that the farmers, pushed by a failing economy, start slashing and burning deeper into the jungle, toward the pyramid. Digging too deep. Now I have a dangerous scenario, I've got something I want to write out. Also I like the grounding of real world pressures on third world subsistance farmers gradiating to the potentially fantasic (and fatal!).
