[WP] "So this is what the people of your world have done with magic. You take cryomancy and call it 'refrigeration'. You take electrokinesis and call it 'wiring'.

[WP] The first species humans contacted always ran away in fear. You didn't know why until one of them finally agreed to work with you. The species' eyes can't see soft tissue; to them, humans are all walking skeletons.	215
