Eiko does an amazing job of creating a game that lets you forget about the real world and simply immerse yourself in the world she's created. Fantasy worlds are made up of two things: Locations and NPCs. Eiko does a great job of developing both. Every city and town you visit feels alive and lived in. They have history to them and have a reason for being. Every settlement has a story to tell you as a player just in its being. They feel like the carry on their existence whether or not you're around. Eiko's greatest strength is in creating NPCs. From an insurance salesman gobilns, a card dealing octopus, a keeper of pet peacocks, to run of the mill tavernkeepers, Eiko knows how to present NPCs that interest and engage the party. Tropes are often turned on their heads. "Monsters" as often as not are presented as social encounters. Even villians offer the opportunity for interaction. All in all, Eiko offers players a compelling, unique opportunity to play DnD every week. I can't recommend her enough to players who like to lean into the social/exploration aspects of the game that often take a back seat to combat.
