In this episode. Tete and I, @fortunusgames, talk about how she's been working on a new story, "Union of Wave and Shore," about her characters Gerda and Kai in 19th century Norway. Now that they've been removed from their original fantasy setting (as seen in OC-training on deviantArt), Tete wants to explore their confluence and growing love for one another that they never expected to experience in their lifetimes.

As Tete wrote on her Instagram: "in this story, they are humans living in 19th century Norway, who must contend with an arranged marriage in the midst of a property will conflict in an embittered family feud..."

We also explore what influenced her to focus on the more naturalistic aspects of Gerda and Kai's personal lives. Besides my graphic novel, "The Book of Joel," there are three other books/movies/performances that inspired her...can you guess what they are?
