It’s not often that the Void Between Worlds, Where There Is Absolutely Nothing and Absolutely Nothing Is, gets so many guests. I suppose it’s called that for a reason. But it’s also a bit of a misnomer, as there are many things inside it today. We’ve claimed the spacious auditorium as our main venue, with … Continue reading silmaril awards 2025: most epic heroine ceremony| Imperial Scribis
