Description

Stone Arms and Saltwater Blood is a journaling game about change , in which you play as a harbour spirit, an embodiment of the boundary between the land and the sea and between the human world and the wild waters. Each autumn night is longer than the last , each breath of salt-taste air is sharper than the last and each morning chill is keener than the last these days. Your instincts are telling you that winter will come soon and it will bring something big and dangerous with it. How will you prepare for the ice and the bitter cold ? How will you keep your harbour, your mortal companions and your magical brethen safe? How will you change yourself to meet the challenge that is coming? No matter what , remember. You are a harbour spirit , a thing of stone arms and saltwater blood and you will keep your home safe until the spring.
