[quote=@Aweirdgamer] Outside of the forum, I am researching artificial intelligence, and I recently finished a college course on peace and conflict studies. I see. I think character sayings can be their own partial revealing of the philosophies of the era, too, though. [/quote] Honestly, I could put more thought into it. I did, though, make sure that they looked towards a brighter future for the Night-Walker people, as they are naturally optimistic, and a bit narcissistic even, which had been an important factor in the slow development up to this point in the hostile environment of the Homelands. Also, are you studying artificial intelligence as a concept or in its current usage? Its a quite interesting topic, and probably even more interesting coming from that angle.
