Do you have it somewhere to share? That actually sounds really good.

Well, in the version of the story that I actually sent into the writing contest, I basically had to scrap the canals idea entirely because the maximum word count was too short for that kind of worldbuilding, so the canals unfortunately never got past the notes stage. All around I was pretty dissatisfied with how the final draft of the story came out, so I've been thinking of having another go at writing a full-length version of the story that goes in-depth about all the crazy worldbuilding ideas I had.
