A magical construction generated through imbuing an inanimate object with powerful soul energy. Most are powered via soul gems. A golem is designed to follow a directive in the simplest, most obvious way possible, and only one who knows its directive can change it. The more complex a golem's directives, the more nuance and intelligence a golem is provided.
The glossal races are those with the capacity for speech and socialization with fellow races. Intelligence beyond beast. There are over fifty known glossal races, and many more yet to be discovered. There exist only a handful of ambiguous cases of glossal intelligence; most are obvious from quick observation.
Seems like a nice concept with good potential, as well as an author that has fairly good writing skills. I shall leave this review here for now.

This one is a hidden gem.
Let us start with the basic premise, GL/Yuri. Traditional GL is mostly based on two MC's getting to know each other and working out their feeling. This story is not about that. The author broke the mold. Right from the beginning, the readers are told that they are couple. The GL is more focused on the MC undergoing trials and tribulations to reunite with her GF, along the way we meet a bunch of odd, quirky, goofy and lovable characters.
The author's prose is eloquent. There are moments when the descriptions almost felt too poetic. There are few overlooked typos but that by no means deter the quality of story telling nor does it hinder a fun reading experience.
Now for the World building, This is where the story tops. Most of the story takes place in a fantasy metropolis of Fleettwixt. The author has put in enough effort to describe various sights and lives in the city so much that the city itself becomes vibrant part of the story.
Finally, the story itself, the basic premise is a simple one. MC seeks her lost love and as the story proceeds the readers are shown a glimpse into the background, an evil corporatation, draining the continent and the countryside of their resource. No evil mega-villains or dark lords here. The antagonist in the story is very much relatable even though the story is tagged fantasy. Give it a try and decide for yourself.
