They cannot. Which is, in fact, what keeps people coming, because whatever those tastes were, they were good.
So... you guys have good experiences that we can't even remember?

<Snipped quote by Meta>
Basically. I mean, we cannot remember them either!
<Snipped quote by Realmatic>
Wouldn't business be more lucrative if it were remembered?
<Snipped quote by Meta>
It would be. But try as they might, Gold Scribes cannot make the sight-unseen effect permanent.
<Snipped quote by Realmatic>
Then wouldn't people be opposed to having their minds modified, especially temporarily? That's a lot of control to be giving up.
<Snipped quote by Meta>
Because of the nature of the Sevenfold Covenant, screening has always been extremely thorough. We advertise the goods with a guarantee of one's safety, using our reputation as a nation. The use of any magic altogether is restricted to those with malicious intent, much thanks to Gold Scribes.
<Snipped quote by Realmatic>
But if you don't actually remember it, how do you know they're not actually using it maliciously?
<Snipped quote by Meta>
Our promise as a nation.
<Snipped quote by Realmatic>
So they could really be abusing the system if they wanted to?
<Snipped quote by Meta>
They could not. We detect malicious intent in all citizens.
<Snipped quote by Realmatic>
So... this is a surveillance state.
<Snipped quote by Meta>
Yes! I do hope that is not a problem. The only measure taken is the restriction of magic use in urban areas.
<Snipped quote by Realmatic>
Why?
<Snipped quote by Meta>
The Sevenfold Covenant and the Tri-Rune System are exceptionally powerful if used properly. We do not restrict access to spells and Realmatic configurations which can cause harm. But harm can be caused instantly. A police force is not enough.
<Snipped quote by Realmatic>
Why urban and not rural?
<Snipped quote by Meta>
The effect cannot be distributed over the entire planet. We provide rural families with devices which will restrict magic in their vicinity or their land when turned on and off, with several security measures.
<Snipped quote by Realmatic>
What if someone really smart changes it?

She's gone, I severely underestimated this one, she is quite slippery. I am currently feeling... 'displeased', I do believe?
*dusts myself off* however, I think Kirina will deal with her, later. you may leave, if you wish.
