It's definitely not that easy. Just trying to figure out how it works at all is apparently a lot.

[but she doesn't care about science.]

One of those situations where we've been damned if we do and damned if we don't, you know? Catastrophes would've wiped our cities out if they didn't use Originium tech to build moving ones, so... either get destroyed by storms full of it, or get killed slower by exposure.

[ gamaliel cares so much about science but they let it go ]

I've lived through similar. Any advancement like that--it's the end of the world as you know it. You don't even know when it happens until it's already underway.

[sarkazm]

Pretty much! And by my lifetime, we were already deep into that.

[she's never known anything else, she's more than young enough for that.]

[holyspirits]

Deep enough you're just stuck in the consequences without the cure yet.

[ frowning as their head is tilted towards her arm again ]

Were you really fine dying now? If it was your own terms.

[sarkazm]

I wouldn't say it was. Somebody- [thunking a fist on the cannon] decided to fire an airship's cannons at a furnace full of pissed-off revenants! Bad luck for me, that's all.

[she exhales a huff.]

Better than wasting away and turning to Originium dust, but as deaths go? Not my favorite. I'd rather have blown myself up on purpose.

[holyspirits]

So they exploded you accidentally?

[ why do they sound so judgmental wow. sometimes you fire weapons. ]

[sarkazm]

I assume so! At least, one second I was by the furnace, arguing with that dusty old Lich... and then the next, the cannons were going off, then I woke up here.

[holyspirits]

Wow. That's.

[ a beat ]

Kind of embarrassing for them, if you were working together.
