I see. Would you still call yourself a bird now?

Re: TURN 1

I am an illuminated beast.

Re: TURN 1

[modeswings]

. . . Yes, illuminated—above and beyond the heights of an ordinary beast.

That is precisely what I would consider human.

Re: TURN 1

[gravitydefier]

No. Humans in my world have a higher purpose than adepti do. [please don't ask me what that "higher purpose" is, HVY is not forthcoming.]

Re: TURN 1

[modeswings]

Then what is your purpose?

Re: TURN 1

[gravitydefier]

...I have a suspicion what mine was.

Re: TURN 1

[modeswings]

. . . I see.

To be honest, it stings a little to hear that someone who isn't human has a purpose when I, who is a human, have no purpose. I would say that I am more of a beast than you are.

Mine was to protect the people of Liyue through battle. It was the only way I could be of service to mortals.

Yours is to...do whatever humans do.

Re: TURN 1

[modeswings]

Be born, procreate, and die.

I find that to be the same as having no purpose.

Re: TURN 1

[gravitydefier]

That makes you free to find a purpose, doesn't it?
