As a big fan of both FIST and Cultist Simulator/ Book of Hours, this impressed me. I like how it treats knowledge of the Hours/Longs in a winking fashion, rather than a prerequisite to comprehension.
The PDF has a bit of wonkiness that might not show up depending on the viewer used, but I'm getting unsupported bit warnings on most of the pages. It seems to be tied to a page wide image, probably a background? The whole Aspects chapter also fails to load anything. Again, might not be an issue on PDF viewers with more aggressive automatic compensation/correction protocols.
Thank you for the kind words! Yeah, Secret Histories was a big pull as you outlined, though we’re hoping we’ve differentiated ourselves enough that it feels more like a re-interpolation of some of the ideas and vibes than a 1=1 thing.
As for the display issues- unfortunately, I’m still quite a novice with laying out PDFs and the like. I’ll try and take a look (it’s likely that it is in fact a background issue, though I’m unsure as to what specifically). Otherwise, the final release will have a raw text version without any art as a workaround to any issues. I might do the same for this soon, if I can find the time.
