10/23/11(Sun)01:34 No.16712169Why are we talking about a theoretic disease of which isn't included into the story for no other reason as some strawman argument against magic? I understand, and agree that always focusing on magic will lead us to super-specializing and crippling us. If we focus on magic, someone might make something of which that could counter magic, like an anti-magic field or some such. This is a reasonable idea as anyone wanting to go up against an all magic kingdom better be packing some way to counter that. That, and while it is useful to use magic to do things, we can't use magic for everything. However, don't make shit up to try and argue a point. I could say there there is a disease of which that kills everyone who doesn't use magic, but that makes about as much sense as the disease that kills those who do use magic.
Now, for the dragon. Send an envoy, discuss with it. C1. It might want something from us, it might want to kill us. Who knows, but we should find out.
I suggest that we work on our defenses. Why? Towns don't build walls to be pretty. They build them to keep people out that they don't want out. Build walls, make traps, whatever is needed to increase our defense. |
