What Quests Would You Love to See?

I love the quests available but there are loads more that could appear! So, what quests would you love to see the most? For me, it would be

Disability rep in Fantasy
Swords and Boards Fantasy
Queer Romance
BIPOC stories

Those are a few I think would be great additions- what are your thoughts?

I’m wondering

Who here used reading as a way to escape and cope with your childhood? I had an alcoholic dad and kids bullied me incessantly. If I didn’t have books I don’t know what I would do.

Do textbooks count toward the yearly goal?

I feel like one you have to read for school might not, but if I’m pulling through a textbook I willingly chose to read to learn something or become smarter in a topic, I’d want to celebrate when I’m done with it, right? Especially with languages or if the textbook was boring. But idk, what are people’s opinions?

Fool Night, Vol. 1

Kasumi Yasuda

In a distant future where the sun no longer shines, Toshiro Kamiya gives up his body to a sinister floral metamorphosis for a payday. The earth of the distant future is covered in thick clouds, and the sun no longer shines. Plants wither, and oxygen is thin. To fight extinction, humankind has developed a technology that turns humans into plants, providing a small amount of oxygen. Is this process sustainable? Is it ethical? Toshiro Kamiya must consider these questions as he’s faced with a difficult choice—save his family or save himself. Kamiya is at the end of his rope. His mother is ill, and his job barely pays for her medication, much less food. With few options left, he considers the life-changing process of floromorphosis. Ready to give his body up for a payday, Kamiya is about to explore the limits of society’s waning humanity.

With band practice cutting into their time together and Himari making a new friend who tugs on Yori's deepest insecurities, both girls start to wonder: how can one little word make everything so complicated?
