Does Diamond Light have any punk influences? I’ve listened to some of their music and I hear a lot of cool sound I’d usually associate with punk bands, are your members fans of any?

-ROOK

The music Chrysopoeia plays is exceptionally well put together, Third Wave hardly ever has practices I would consider “focused” despite our sound often improving… how do your practices tend to go?

-KNIGHT

With our character introductions all live, it's time for one last surprise before the story drops tomorrow! If you have any questions about Diamond Light, go on and ask them, and they'll be answered in character!

It's been one exciting week, and we have one last surpirse for you all! Ask anything you want underneath this post and we'll answer (in character!)
