Likewise, partner.


You should be able to reach me with the transponder Legend gives you. Otherwise, I’m usually in the library.

So do life energies. They're called "energies" for a reason, even though they aren't really energy types.


Along with their very arbitrary rules.

Peacefully, right?


I hope so! Those are some formidable opponents we have.

Correct. As do your preferred methods.

Perfect. We can both do some research and rendezvous soon.

*Cranes my neck to look at my boat behind me and in a split second decision, bursts into a backwards leap, embedding the point of my scythe into the dull wood of the vessel with a thud, locking it in place and dangling from the handle above the river's water*

This was fun.

Just play it by ear? Meet up when we’ve got something worth sharing?

In fact, I can prove it. Your first example, technology, usually requires electricity, which doesn't function the same in every universe that it exists in. It requires arbitrary universal laws to be a certain way, otherwise, if it even exists in a universe, it won't work the same as in another. If you take technology that requires any arbitrary power-source, it is subject to arbitrary universal laws being different that can change the way it works, if it works at all, in ways that are arbitrary. Even direct reality manipulation has to be changed to some arbitrary, varying degree to be able to influence different dimensions the same way. Normal magic is basically an IE already, so you saying that it's somehow less random than strictly life-based IEs is asinine. Half the time "normal" magic is already life-based in some way anyway. Meanwhile, life-based IEs, while not uniformly this way, do have a great number of them that work the same in every single universe they can exist in. Which happen to include all the ones that I can use, by the way. So yes, life-based "energies," especially the ones I use in particular, are less random or arbitrary than your examples. Check.

You might be looping. It’s not that important.

That is fine.

I wouldn't burden anyone with the knowledge unless they plan to join us.


Stilgar:... that may very well be a possibility, but it must be discussed in further. Your friend, Shinji of Dhakar Sietch... he tells us stories of the destruction your enemy caused. Any enemy of our people, Shinji included, shall meet an end under the justice of our blades.

Shinji: *nods, and then remains silent, as soic as a guard on duty*

Stilgar: ...now that our small problem has been resolved, we will begin with a small history lesson. For you to suceed belnding in with our people, you must know the lanf as if it were your very own. As if you were born here. Understood? We will camp here in this cave for the remainder of this lesson. I have neough food and water for us all for 3 days. I suggest you begin studying quickly.
