1) Gotcha, thank you :)

2) Aah, the magic! I really like the idea of there being a magic practice specifically tied to clothes. One thing that tends to annoy me in so much fantasy is the idea that once you have access to magic, you can twist it into anything by yourself without having to specialise.

3, 4) Like with point 1, I'm certain this can be done really well when you have pages and pages of space to play with and detail stuff out, so I for one trust you.

5) Hm. Have you considered using untranslated names perhaps?

6) I get Remia and Etruria, but I'm curious to know how Venice's RL Byzantine roots, if you intend to make use of those, tie in with the Russianness of your main country.


Another question: is the upcoming industry magical as well? Because I can see how old magic vs new magic sounds more interesting and fresher than industry vs manual labour as having happened in actual history. I was always sad that Pratchett didn't go into this in greater detail, and Ponder Stibbons was really there to provide an occasional jokey reference to RL tech.
