					<description><![CDATA[Hello all! Today I have an interview with Jan Martin, creator of Crow Island Funeral // PROCESSION! I'm so excited to share this interview, Jan is an amazing creator and Crow Island is SO cool!

Jan: " I wanted to have this section of the overall story play out as a game because it underlines the importance of surviving the trip in a way that a short story couldn't do on its own. Being able to fail, actually fail and lose and not make it at all, would have huge implications in the universe. There's no telling how the future would have unfolded if that group didn't survive the trek to the City of Seven Nations. "]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I think about the concept of peril in adventures quite a lot, especially as someone who generally isn't big on character death, extreme physical or mental trauma, &#038; failing. What on earth is an adventure without those types of peril? Does a game even require an adventure, 0r peril, to be fun? (I won't be discussing the nature of fun, that's your own thing.)]]></description>
