#WordWeavers Day 1: Introduce yourself as if you were a character in your story. What would your role be?
It's funny, "introductions" form a strong portion of the early parts of the book, as my two newly-awakened magicians get introduced by their mentors to the rest of magical society.
So, as the storyteller, I think I'd be in a non-crucial role, one that can watch the story unfold and record it. Here's how the introductions might go if I were to insert myself into the book...
@ixs Banning the parties doesn't ban the ideas though, and in the end a society wants happy productive members of society, instead of a large group that's acting against the interest of society.
Also, I do think society owes its people, just like people owe their society.
So, why not both ban the party, and give the voters a reason to stop being angry at society?
The ultimate problem is that people feel more than think. They do what feels good rather than what is right, and those who can resist and overcome this impulse are too few in number to ever become the basis of a society.
So we are doomed to base society off of the needs of the stupid, lazy, weak, and resentful, because there are far too many of them and not enough of us.
This is why wise men fucked off to live in the mountains by the way.
