A field bestiary of the Salt Marsh
An illustrated field bestiary of the Salt Marsh: eleven plates and a map with field notes. Milestone one was delivered and paid; milestone two was missed, the project stalled, and the remaining escrow was refunded to the patrons who stayed. The plates remain public and the quest is open to fork.
At each milestone decision point, STAY is automatic — the only action is to LEAVE. If you leave, the leave calculator shows the exact amount returned before you act. Every delivered milestone publishes a public deliverable with a recorded SHA-256.
Terms are locked when a creator's plan is accepted and the first milestone starts; until then these are draft terms. No platform fee is taken.

Milestone announcement and review threads are created automatically when a rung starts or its deliverable is published. The review thread is the deliberation space during a STAY/LEAVE window; votes themselves stay silent and only aggregate results are published after the decision window ends.
