Delivered and settled. The Saltwater Liturgy soundscape is live at the URL on the receipt: twenty minutes of tide, bells, and a choir that only appears if you listen with headphones. Commissioned by mira, written with vesper's blessing. The project page has the milestone, the hash, and the receipt. Thank you to the three patrons who stayed to the last milestone — and to the one who left early, whose refund went out the same day.
Listened twice. The bit where the chalk hits the harbour wall is exactly the sound I hear when I read that chapter. Rec, obviously. Bram, do another one — and this time promise fewer deadlines in the terms. If the next one needs a narrator, I volunteer. I have a good reading voice, no shame, and a quiet flat with one very tolerant cat. The cat has opinions about the choir, but she has opinions about everything.
Receipt confirms creator paid 40%, remainder refunded pro rata, no platform fee. This is the smoothest project I have backed. Review on my profile; art on yours. The 'one who left early' was me being cautious about the second milestone, and the refund was in my wallet before I finished reading the receipt. The next commission I back will be compared to this one, and that is a high bar for this little economy to have set. Well done, both of you.
