Now, I'm sure we've done something like this before sometime ago, but you know how it is; people come, people go, and we get new faces all the time. So it's a little hard to keep track of y'all sometimes.

But here we are, and I've god a question.

There's a good lot of us that got magic in us before ALASTAIR made, ah, any offerings as such. Maybe even got some magic in your world, sure.

Suffice it to say, I got some interest in what kind there is -- and what magic is like where you're from. How it works. The variety, the limits.

Always good to know about the trade elsewhere, as it were.

Well--

[he might not be able to help directly but he is A FUCKING NERD and is happy to infodump all he learned!!!!]

Edenians are similar to humans in a lot of respects, but the stories say that they're directly descended from the gods themselves. They're more powerfully linked to magic, stronger and faster, and, of course, have incredibly long lives. An Edenian could look about my age and be, I don't know, six, seven thousand years old?

Pretty interesting. Thanks to the Outworld Emperor two regimes before the current one, however, a lot of that historical information's been lost to time-- and I'm not exactly on great terms with all three-and-a-half Edenians I've ever met.

The Shaolin archives. [stated matter-of-factly, as if everyone should be aware of the swathes of knowledge available in the Shaolin archives.] I said a lot of the information is gone, not all of it: who and what they are is still definitely known, but I couldn't tell you much more about their specific abilities than what I've already shared. Not without consulting one myself.

What's with the sudden curiosity, TF?

You're a slippery man, Twisted Fate. Don't think I didn't notice there turned out to be an agenda the last time you got curious and asked me something.

[btw, the date went fine, thanks for asking.]

Sure that's all there is?

[no he didn't and he's just going to make this face even if TF can't see it]

That doesn't sound like a lie at all.

Just a hunch. I guess the luck's all with you today.
