So far, so good. Glad to see new authors taking up the Bureau. Definitely liking your characters so far, including the dynamic between John and Light Winds ... they almost have a buddy movie vibe to 'em.

One minor thing, though ... Potion is generally purple (there's also a prototype red version that will turn whoever drinks it into a mare), especially if you're setting this in Chatoyance's take on the 'verse, as you seem to be.

The colour difference is deliberate. I may be basing off chatroyance's verse some, but I am not using it exactly, especially as bringing in elements from season 3 upwards.

if you want a spoiler as to where may be going:
Think of something else related to the colour green that changes, from season 2

8074105 Ahh ... I see. That makes a lot of sense. And Chat's 'verse certainly provides a good foundation for worldbuilding. Goodness knows I used it as a jumping off point, myself.

Same here, with my Atlantis story. I've changed some things when I felt the need, but Chatoyance's setting was the starting point.

And while it was still, unmistakably still him,

At least you didn't go the route of 'transformation kills old personality and creates pony with old person's memories' cliche. When you remove that from the equation, the entire question and dynamic changes. It's less about choosing which way you'll die or 'fighting the invaders', but more 'how far would you be willing to go to survive?' In the face of a natural disaster?
