<Snipped quote by Valiance>

The thrill is what makes it fun for me, being pushed to my limits.
*stands up straighter*
Now, let us continue!

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

Artificial in what sense? They genuinely had no access to food.

<Snipped quote by Galvanize>

Hm. Don’t die for some thrill.
*Punches the air toward your feet, exploding the ground beneath you*

<Snipped quote by Legend>

I mean caused by something they did. There’s no way they always existed that way, dangerous magic can’t be something people are born knowing.

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

Ah, likely not. My hypothesis is that as their food supply dwindled, they turned to riskier arts. On a positive note, all other creatures on the planet had starved, so there was no natural threat to the population.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*flies into the air and I land hard, upon landing I make a weird sounding grunt*
Bwueh…
*after a few moments a metal flag is raised*
I’m done and pooped.

<Snipped quote by Galvanize>

I thought as much.
*Walks over and squats down next to you*
You did good though!

<Snipped quote by Legend>

*Blinks*
Positive from their perspective, sure. Though I doubt people that have access to magic like that would have any natural threats anyway.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Thanks, big guy. It really means a lot…
*rolls over, looking up at you laying down*
The element of Dragon is really taxing on one’s body… That was what emanating from my body. In a sense, it’s like lactic acid in one’s muscles but also adrenaline too. Since I wasn’t using it directly, it had to be dispersed out from my body.

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

Perhaps in a generalized sense, had the civilization taken a different route and used magic to instead neutralize predators. But it may also be costly, all the while conventional weapons can do the same job.

<Snipped quote by Codify>

Um... shapes twisting and moving. Before there were colors I’ve never seen. Now it’s just faded.

<Snipped quote by Legend>

I'm not going to judge. Home is weird compared to everywhere else I've been anyway. I'm sure other people could say the same thing about us.

<Snipped quote by Host>

Hmm...

<Snipped quote by Galvanize>

Element of Dragon, huh? Abilities with endurance issues can be a real pain.

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

*Smiles*
Judge all you like, it just may not accomplish much.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

All in all, I am done.
*starts breathing heavily but slowly*
If I was able to use the element besides it’s natural function of boosting me to keep going, I would have lasted long. But it wouldn’t have been as fun.
*grins*

<Snipped quote by Galvanize>

The biggest stars burn out the fastest, or whatever that thing people say is.

<Snipped quote by Legend>

The only helpful judges are usually appointed. And even then, not always.

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

Ah, in that sense it becomes a philosophical question.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

I don’t think that fits in this situation…Maybe.
*groans as I slowly get up, slowly breathing as I am standing, sticks my hand out*
That was really fun.
