AM radio is like literal magic. There is music all around us that we can’t hear, and to hear it you just have to tap a crystal (diode) to the earth and listen to it with another magic rock (magnet) and a tin can. You dont even need electricity to make it work because this music around us is literally all the power you need. Oh and at night when the sun has set, the light of the day gets replaced by MORE music because the signals can travel further at night. This is magic. If you even care.
FFXIV: Can you imagine the Ascians’ reactions to Midgardsormr landing on this planet? They didn’t know about life on other stars. If they missed his actual landing they’d be gallivanting around, jumping to the other shards, teehee we’ll get that dastardly Venat, and then they come back and find
this thing
protecting a lake full of aether, it’s the size of a skyscraper from the World Unsundered, it’s immortal, it has funky aether they can’t sense or manipulate like other sundered beings’ aether, its soul is in its eyes, it’s incredibly strong, it seems to be able to change its shape, holy shit it’s like it’s unsundered is it even ethical to fight this thing, and it may also be able to eat people to get their souls and then that soulshard is kinda immortal again? how did Venat come up with this thing -
And then the lizard opens its mouth to the nice mortals that are hanging around asking questions and it says, completely intelligent, that a goddess called Hydaelyn let him stay on this planet if he protects the lake and does her a favor every now and then. Oh, and meet his first baby. The other 6 are going to hatch at some point.
I think the Ascian in the awestruck crowd would have just shat out of their borrowed body on the spot and gone running to the others like “You will not BELIEVE what that fucking bitch beat us to”
ffxiv is less about what happens in the game and more about whatever you imagine in your mind with your wol and some niche content or a character. you can imagine anything
