My brother is an avid dungeon master. He's recently started a new campaign set in a world created by my friend of 25+ years, and it feels good to be "at the table" with them both again, even if we're still thousands of miles apart.

"There are many planes of existence, and a confluence of (in)auspicious circumstances can open a vortex between them — a wellspring of formidable power, which could lead to great fortune... or utter ruin. In this case, that depends upon the disposition of the Naiad bound to guard the fountain."

Scene built in Cinema4D, fluid simulation in X-Particles, and spray in TurbulenceFD, rendered with Redshift. Music and sound design by my friend and longtime collaborator Abel Okugawa.
