*Gonzo doesn't seem to notice, he's busy pouring different shards and gems into a large sack*

*his hut is a mess, there is a table to one side, covered in paper, in one corner is a small ink phial with one of his large wing feathers in. in the middle is what appers to be a cauldron, but with some large metal/wood construct with tubes and pipes going out of it and into a series of empty and half empty jars, all labeled with some image or symbol. one wall is just a large book shelf, with nothing but jars, jars, jars, jars and jars, all filled with all sorts of colorful liquids. there are a few chests and trunks around, some are open showing all sorts of things, gem-fitted belts, bangles and rings, raw ores, processed metals of many different kinds. you hear a agitated and drawn out sigh coming from a jar with a brain in formalin, it brain is floating in the greenish liquid, it's two red eyes stare stiffly at you as it lets out another agitated sigh. the room is dusty and reeks of all sorts of things, making it hard to breath. there are other small bits and bobs, odd ends and other tat laying around, a hexagonal lens with a golden gem-fitted rim, multiple books, paper with notes and diagrams EVERYWHERE, tools, half-finished golems, wands, staves, a normal-looking oven. all there seems of leasuire is a slightly comfy-looking chair with a pile of paper and a half-way empty jar of light grey/blue liquid*

Who agrees?

// so far i have a better explain magic system that makes more sense than any of the "science" that has been used, or even the FLOATING FUCKING CITY?! do you have any idea what kind of power that would need? the kind of "science" you want to use is just as bad as lazy-story-writing magic. while i do agree that some of the magic we have here is pretty *hand-wave, solve/cause problems* some of it has an ACTUAL system. Penguins i think is pretty hand-wave-y but Umbra still has some things not yet explained.

// It's actually a bit complicated... It's still technically technology, though- it just originates from a shady source. I could probably PM the details if you're that interested, since I don't really want to clog up the page with an explanation :I

// Yeah, same here... I've got a thing or two planned that I don't want to reveal just yet.
// Mostly because there's no way of anyone- including Umbra himself- knowing either one.
