Some of the headmaster's comments seem more ominous too: e.g. '‘My own Truth is that of the Sun. How it nurtures growth and life, but is also harsh and unyielding.'

2023-07-21 14:02:19 +0000 UTCThe most interesting part to me is how with thus new information, you need to re-frame everything that's happened in Veid as either beneficial for the red sparks or too difficult for the red sparks to prevent
Martin Brandel
2023-07-16 19:04:03 +0000 UTCFor certain the red sparks are a reason behind the hatred if wizards however, and I bet the dragon situation. And everything going on in veid in general

2023-07-16 16:21:19 +0000 UTCI can only remember "ascending" being used in 2 ways (sort of a 3rd with the mind mage ascendants but wouldn't make sense here) - ascending to a proper Wizard, which all Dragons are tiny wizards naturally, or ascending to Godhood. Considering the dragon in question *created* an Element, I imagine he was already a proper Wizard and wanted to ascend to Godhood and failed for one reason or another. Old-cosmology wizards ascensions weren't quite as complicated as Erik's situation seems to be, which is why I lean more towards it being a Godhood ascension issue rather than a "simple" Wizard one. Pluuuuuuuuussss - the Red Static (forget tryna type that name out lol) is farming side-realities for sparks of Godhood which have 2 purposes - becoming a God by stealing those sparks or empowering your Godhood.

2023-07-16 16:19:16 +0000 UTCCool. So this but hurt dragon couldn't ascend. To God hood I'm guessing. I wonder if they knew each other in the old cosmology.

2023-07-16 10:44:02 +0000 UTC“I’d like to talk about cores, infinity, mana crystals that paradoxically exist along multiple grains, and whatever this New Cosmology mana-force-particle is or might be. The ‘reson’.” Ophiel woke up in bed, calling out, “Don’t talk about that yet!” Why can’t Eric talk about that stuff yet?

2023-07-16 01:06:22 +0000 UTCNothanganathor.... Not...hang.. another.. Sounds like the dragon is really against executing people via the gallows.

2023-07-15 22:55:18 +0000 UTCIf what Ophiel said in this chapter is correct, then mind mage reading Eric=certain death. It is only a question if it is instant death, or a complete erasure from memory/existence
Craig
2023-07-15 22:25:14 +0000 UTCI'm glad that Erick can finally share his troubles around Red with others, but I'm curious how that is going to interact with Mind Mages.

2023-07-15 22:09:18 +0000 UTCYay! Ophiel is a real boy! Oh no, poor Ophiel, with mana sickness :(

2023-07-15 21:13:58 +0000 UTCWhew a breather chapter. I’m glad to see that there is more info being dropped. But it was nice to see that Ophiel was able to just be a Kid also. Also wow now I can see why Wizards that go bad are feared because just one person did all that to Veird. Welp I’m looking forward to how all this works out. Thanks for the chapter

2023-07-15 20:52:09 +0000 UTCSounds like it. They couldn't 'ascend', whatever that means, and thus got spiteful about it. Probably an extremely reductionist way to say it, but we don't know more of their story yet so whatever lol.

2023-07-15 20:40:43 +0000 UTCWow. So wait, that dragon caused the sundering as a sort of "screw you all, if I can't have nice things, you can't have anything"? Or did I misunderstand that.

2023-07-15 20:25:28 +0000 UTCOh wow! Amazing. So great! So heartwarming. Just so awesome.
