Yesterday I was teaching artifact-making at the Imperial University—and today the ruler of a city doomed to die is in another world. A world where there’s practically no magic, and at night, beyond the cities, monsters appear—against which ordinary weapons are powerless. What is left to do in such a situation? Throw your hands up and prepare for inevitable death? No—that’s not my path. I’d rather bring into this world the main “evil” from mine and give people a chance to fight.
