Pixie, Archmage-to-be with druidic leanings, Life runed
Hmm, would anyone have a glimmer of interest in a sort of cultural exchange? And by that I mean I reveal facts about pixie society as I learn more about yours! I am fairly certain I remain the only pixie on this platform; at least by the definition of pixie I retain.
/ᐠ Fascinating! Kind of like Earth then. ₍^. .^₎⟆ Fangora just has the one sapient species, us Dryads! ฅ(ᵔ꒳ ᵔマ We're chlorophyllic life forms - living plants, if you want to be reductive - so I was surprised to find out that most sophont species are animalia! I assume that's what Pixies are, too? (˵◝ ⩊ ◜˵マ ᐟ\
oh. you're going to play. oh boy. that's wait, you know it's coming? and what it is? how are you preparing? :o
I only know a little bit, so I can't profess to know *entirely* how things will go, but I'm going to ensure what can carry over to the other side, will. I am a very powerful mage-to-be, so I think I have the capability! Currently that amounts to collection, of sorts. Samples and pictures and data.
I suppose biologically we would most resemble animals, yes! We are creatures of flesh and blood, though we have a deep connection to the natural world- moreso than our worldmates, at least. I am actually communicating from a device I grew myself!
well yeah, it is pretty hard to know what's going to happen because it sort of builds itself around you? so you end up making the enemies you are going to fight because you have to in order to survive. and that has nothing on going god tier. because, oh boy. but, ok, what do you feel like i should know about pixies?
A game operating on predestined paths, gods and self-made monsters... Interesting! We pixies have a way of getting "around" rules like that, though, so I'm sure we'll be fine. Hmm... Well, we live in a largely magical society- Something I find notable enough to mention because the other races on my world don't utilize it half as much as we do. Mostly, anyway. I'm actually in-line to be an archmage myself! Which I believe would be equivalent to a princess on one of your worlds?
so where i am from, we don't have kings. i mean there's a couple countries that do but mostly they're figure heads. not that i want to think about the politics of earth-c, where i'm kind something, i don't really want it and it's like a whole thing. but it's probably going to help that you're also magical, because magic is very useful in fighting fate. and that's the thing, you're going to probably hear stories about how people beat their game, and it's all about breaking it. but, breaking it also does terrible things. also are there like, a lot of arch mages where you come from?
There are a few! They operate on a sort of council. They aren't *strictly* our leaders, but many defer to their wisdom on matters of governance or important topics when they aren't sure about them themselves. And I'm in line to join them, soon! As a sort of representative of my generation. Hmm. This game seems like it has a very narrow definition of "winning", if both beating it and not has less than ideal outcomes. Truly, it sounds like something I'd be in my element for- We like our games, after all. Even if they aren't quite fair. :) I actually wasn't aware such things were phased out in your culture! I suppose my information was slightly outdated.
huh. humans really like making countries. and, countries don't really like coming together too much. not unless they want to fight other countries. it's definitely a whole thing. and so is sburb, it has all these rules that are like, really hard to get around. at the start, a life killing amount of asteroids is going to come, and it's going to come because it was destined to. because it's already in motion. it depends on your perspective. and yeah, we mostly lead ourselves with elected representatives. we still do war and all that, but maybe less of it? i hope?
Currently, our own planet is more or less divided into three nations! Primarily lead by the different peoples, though of course there is intermingling. We're all... Mm, I wouldn't say we're in perfect harmony, but we're at peace! There is strife and crime here and there, but I assume that to just be a fact of existence. I only have general knowledge of how the other nations do their dealings, but I'll work to alleviate that in time. Hopefully before they're gone, if what you're saying is true! Asteroids, you say? Hmmm. That's already got me thinking up some ideas. Maybe I'll pass the news along to the other archmages once my ascension happens.
I hope I didn't offend the floral princess by revealing I'm typing on an object that was grown from the earth.
/ᐠ Not at all! Sorry, I was getting a message. We grow much of our tech as well! Gosh, your species is already feeling a lot less alien than the ones on Earth. (˵◝ ⩊ ◜˵マ ᐟ\
Oh! Alright, that soothes the heart a bit, haha. I'm actually something of a druid myself, despite my true calling being elsewhere. It's a fun little hobby to amuse myself in off hours.
if we gonna talk full names again. no laughing this time. yiffany longstocking lalonde harley
I am starting to get the impression that this "Alternia" has a very chaotic societal structure.

I've seen such casual confessions of acts that would get you embedded into a tree over here.

Most unfortunate. I am not certain on the efficacy of blessings across universal lines, but I am hoping your day/week/et cetera improves.
(=Ф^Ф=)THE ALTERRNIAN ФNE. THE CAST SYSTEM MUST BE ABФLISHED(=ФⰙФ=)rawr!
I'll withhold my judgement (professing a lack of experience with such), but I hope that works out for you!
I always be saying shit like "face your destiny" but the destiny is usually breakfast.
This one takes her destiny with a side of syrup.
Oh, there we go. Connection finally established. Greetings from Everworld! My name is Lila. Some of our seers detected... Well, something out there, and I guess this something was this. The curiosity got the better of me, so I spent some time trying to make a connection, and- Well, I won't bore you with the details. How delightfully odd that the first extraversal connection this one would make comes in the form of an internet page...!
