[quote=@Lugubrious] I thought we established that time was relative? How else could normal mortals like Cherry Eater and Gerrik live across the spans of time that our gods are dealing with? Anyway, your use of 'probably' strikes me as interesting. Nobody has the slightest clue how long things take, or what time everyone's at in the IC, and even if they did each post would be dealing with its own timeframe. The entire RP is a time anomaly of 'probablys'. Almost nobody uses time in a significant way, anyhow. The closest I can think of is the recent post about the Furl's evolution. Everyone else just throws in something like 'an untold time passed' or 'a great many eons stood still while X hung there in thought'. I don't see what the point of being fastidious about time is. It only becomes slightly relevant when people are controlling pure mortal characters, since apparently millennium can pass while gods have conversations. [/quote] Neither Cherry-Eater nor Gerrik are 'normal' humans. They are heroes and thus immortal (or at least, Gerrik will be a hero soon, Teknall is just slightly in the past). My use of 'probably' is a signal that we have not yet worked out the exact number, which we are now in the process of doing.
