What'd you think of comic script writing, anon? "Not REAL literature"?
Can't fault you if you think that, at least in my experience it's 90% dialogue and 10% panel framing instructions, I'm not even calling those "descriptions" seeing how simplistic they are.

Have an example:
"The two are still driving. An entire day has passed since the last scene. Finally, they get to a border city. It's moderately large. It's poor: proper brick buildings are few and vastly outnumbered by shacks. There are factories, their smog shrouding the sky.
- Erlin: Here we are, we're at the border. Welcome to Tsuda. Good thing Mirno's neutral to either block or our only option would have been Nagari...
- Y12: Hmm. This place is a lot more populated, excessively so if all the shacks are anything to go by.
- Erlin: Yeah, they're all refugees'. When Ocmu erupted and the country went to shit they all flocked here in hopes of entering Mirno, but they were blocked. Now Mirnoan and Darrazeean investors hire them in their factories for dirt cheap... These people'd do anything for scraps."

Decent dialogue, right? Nothing spectacular of course, I'm just hoping it sounds natural, and that the bit of exposition there doesn't feel forced
