FYI: Because I think Sword of Moonlight should play a major part in the 21st century, and because I don't think the phrase "Sword of Moonlight" will exactly catch on as a mainstream turn of phrase...

I intend to promote the more palatable "Cerulean" as a a kind of codename stand-in for Sword of Moonlight software. I think this will also encourage wider adoption of the OSS codebase which will extend far beyond the mere application domain of action adventure video games.

I also think this can be used in KF video games set around the turn of the century:

(The building even looks like the building that houses God in Megami Tensei 2, imagine the crossover potential.)


PS: In my formative years as an artist I actually had hundreds of Pantone markers. They'd normally cost at least a few dollars apiece, but I was able to buy whole barrels full from the university art store at some point. I still have then taking up a drawer in my dresser. They're probably a great number of them that are completely dried out now. I also graduated high school in 2000. I am a first year so-called Millennial.
