Hi folks! Show creator Eira here to remind you that the QnA inbox is open for questions about Remnants S1! The inbox will be open for another 10 days, closing at midnight GMT on 17th April. I’m so looking forward to hearing your questions! Leave them at hangingslothstudios.com/qna. So far I’ve had loads of juicy stuff, and quite a few asks about secret messages and hidden codes. I won’t be answering those directly, but I will give you some little clues. Part one, two in one. Part two, you’ll need a key. The show’s webpage may help. Have fun, folks!
Announcements about Remnants’ S2 will be coming very soon, and those with very perky ears may find them out ahead of others. The next real remnant will be coming a week today. Until then, don’t forget to leave your questions at hangingslothstudios.com/qna that’s hanging sloth studios dot com forward slash q n a, as in q for queen, n for November, and a for alpha.
