You could make that comparison. But this time, it's not a genie.


So how are you doing this?

The Realmatic conversions are relatively simple. The melting point of the metal poles, which are stationed all over the city, is changed and the metal is instantly converted. Levitation, which I assume Kelly knows how to do, and which you can do, since you have Tri-Rune capabilities, catches up the liquid and assembles it into the sheet which is then converted back into a solid. The fabric has to actually be given properties of a fluid rather than just melted, while the metal can be melted or also given properties of a fluid, and it's just a matter of more levitation.

That seems unnecessarily complicated.

Ah, but it looks nice! In a hurry, one could just take one of the rolls of fabric and make the carpet directly out of that, but they're harder to give shape and make solid at the same time.

Why choose that way of doing things?

It's fun! Much faster than walking, and more space, also.

It seems like things would develop the easiest way rather than the most fun way.

They did. We walked, and then we drove. And then we were driven. But that was boring.

Why not something like teleportation?

That's a Red Magic thing, and Tri-Rune teleportation requires considerable power. There is technology for it, but we only use it to teleport between cities. Installing teleportation units everywhere would be unfeasible.

I'm talking tech. What about portable teleportation machines?

We might work on that. That would be significantly more useful than the PR system. *we swoop into a larger street lined with large, fancy restaurants* We have some of the finest cooks in Existence here in Cepis, capable of producing perfect blends of food. Some of the very best cooks are teamed up with Gold Scribes in order to produce tastes that literally don't exist otherwise! Restaurant roads such as these can be found all over the city.

If they don't exist, then how can we taste them?

Gold Scribes use the Yellow Magic, which lets them expand the ability of one's mind to perceive theoretically limitless possibilities. Sun Scribes are the ones who actually come up with those possibilities.

Can they remember the taste after the effect wears off?

They cannot. Which is, in fact, what keeps people coming, because whatever those tastes were, they were good.
