Easy, it was another, greater mage. It's mages all the way down

[-] BambiDiego@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago

In a time before modern mages, before pre-written incantations, before even Auto-Incantated Vibration Casting (A-I VibeCast), there was a... different time.

It was the Sages of the ancient Fortran civilization, followed by the Assembly of Oracles, who truly understood the old magics.

The old tongues are understood so little these contemporary times.

Even those only whisper in hushed cants about the before times, when every inscription was carefully annotated in scrolls that could become as long as entire towers

Annotations?! You know of the myths?

Is casting "Fist" more complicated than casting "Explode The Sun"?

[-] ICastFist@programming.dev 3 points 4 days ago

Yes, for it requires intense physical training for a proper casting of "Fist"

[-] Wildmimic@anarchist.nexus 3 points 4 days ago

Ah, those damn somatic components.
