You know the new lore is good when it's added to my class's reading list
So I'm taking a lit class on "plucky heroine" novels. Jane Eyre and the like. However, the other day, after reading the beautiful "flesh and stone" story, I noticed that it lined up with a lot of the stuff that we were analyzing in class. Lux is the one who doesn't fit into society, and feels wrong, before things happen to make her feel better and she gets her self-confidence. So I showed it to the teacher (and might I add, my Galio voice was very impressive), and she added it to the reading list!
This may seem small, but I think that it's good for people to look at more than just books that are "classics" or written by well-known authors. It was fairly eye-opening to the teacher, and it's good that a story from this world will actually be looked at by a class.
