It is strongly recommended that you read those works first. They may all be found \emph{post-self.ink/cycle} as paperbacks, ebooks, and free to read in the browser. If you would prefer to jump right in, spoilers be damned, you can find a primer in the appendices on page \pageref{primer} to get you started. The tilde (\textasciitilde) is the punctuation mark of whimsy and on this I will not be swayed. \vspace{1cm} \noindent\textbf{Content notes:} Contains mentions of rough, but consensual sex with one vague description; blood; adult characters engaging with the world as children, unrelated to sex; themes of familial abuse. \cleardoublepage \null \vfill \emph{To The Lament, who offered me reclamation.} \emph{—Madison Rye Progress} \secdiv \vfill \mainmatter \part*{Motes Played} \pagestyle{ourbook} \cleardoublepage \null \thispagestyle{empty} \vfill \begin{verse} She died at play, \\ Gamboled away \\ Her lease of spotted hours, \\ Then sank as gaily as a Turk \\ Upon a Couch of flowers.
