[Open]

[ Frieren's mind opens up; as before, on the surface it's a calm, smooth pond. She's not quite used to this, so the connection (at first) is a touch tentative and then as she feels her way forward it opens more until she thinks she's finally ready. ]

I have a question for all of you. And you may consider it a simple matter of curiosity; I won't take offense at being ignored.

[ There's a pause, as if she's collecting her thoughts. ]

How many of you are long-lived species? Or long-lived by virtue of who you are? My kind are rare, even in my world, so I can't assume others will be particularly more common here, at the end of the universe.

[ It's an open question. ]

Just the way people look at it where I come from.

Is anyone who can use magic in your world a mage?

[personal profile] wolfish 2024-05-08 05:26 am (UTC)(link)
So what qualifies as a mage, then?

That'd be...one hell of a lot of people, then. It's standard curriculum at the Officer's Academy... Then there's the School of Sorcery up in Fhirdiad. I know a few people who attended the latter, but I went to the former.

If we're talking dedicated mages, Fódlan may have more. But it's hard to compare, not having a sense of scale and all.
wolfish: (regard)

Fódlan is fairly insular, but by no means is it small. We'd been enjoying peace for some time before the war, so magic was more of a scholarly pursuit or calling.

I think you'd have liked Constance, were she here. She's very...creative about her magical pursuits.
wolfish: (say)

[personal profile] wolfish 2024-05-10 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
All manner of things. One of her recent exploits was rainbow tea. The trouble is you'd wind up with a rainbow tongue in the bargain, but she assures me it's a work in progress.

Last I saw her, anyway.

[ Constance may have always been on about restoring her noble house, but she could have pursued any number of avenues for that. She chose magic, so... ]

You may be right about that. Don't think I've met anyone with new ideas like hers.

Who knows? People just pop up here all the time.
wolfish: (regard)

[personal profile] wolfish 2024-05-11 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
You think so? There're two guys from some other version of Fódlan. After them, a comrade of mine appeared here, as I did some time after that, and another ally of ours followed suit a few months later.

For some, no one else from any iteration of home shows up here. Bit on the unpredictable side, seems to me.
wolfish: (sigh)

Can't deny that. Wish we did know, but nothing here's about how we want it.
wolfish: (distant)

[personal profile] wolfish 2024-05-12 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
Can't deny that. No way to please everyone, besides.

[ One reason the Zenith sales pitch fell flat for him, but that doesn't bear mention. ]
