Il Mheg 1/2 of two mirrored zones?

[fay2]

Fair, but why would a student of Sharlayan be so aggressively ignorant of an art she professes to be so similar to her own if it is a subject of study in the homeland? Why would it not be studied as being within the same family of magics?.

She comes from a long line of powerful astrologians what else dose she need to be or study?

There is the fact most present day "Geomancers" are charlatans working against its credibility tho.

Again suggesting no proper study of it within Sharlayan itself.

However Rammbroes isn't in Sharlaya right now something picked up in other explorations if not studied there ?
I still think it is, however Sharlayans focus on astrologians being the preferred form of divination.

This is very dependent on how you approach the logic of time travel - and again, why I'll point to the Alexander story (and similarly designed "stable time loops") as an example of how it can be handled without bringing up issues of "what if we went back to change X?" because the gate to that slippery slope is firmly closed.

Actually Alexander itself is preventing changes in time from time travel, as it came to the conclusion that any time paradoxes will lead to calamity and that Calamity is bad. So stop any and all.

We'll likely see Alexander come the 13th calamity.
Which I'm petty sure should be a temporal calamity.

But... let's go with an actual conceivable example in the game... how did Gaius safely escape the burning castrum?

He teleported away to safety.

I don't see a burned forest in that image at all. It's a smudgy nondescript background to a black-and-white drawing. It could be anywhere, though I'm inclined to think of Odin in the (unburned) Twelveswood..

It's not Odin

It's the WoL/D with "Midealyn" in arm on a Grani {the collectors bonus mount}

Whatever we do in future expansions, it'll still be happening "five years since the Calamity".

I Guess that point is the real rentch in any time travel if everything is the same time, how do you travel to the right point if its all that point.

And seeing a Southern Cross in some swirling crystals (I assume they're in motion and that's a chance arrangement in the screenshot) is really too much of a long shot - particularly seeing as we're in another world with its own constellations.

They aren't swirling.
If you not up to it. I'm sure someone else can confirm it for you.

I think this has hit the crux of why I'd rather time travel stay in Alexander land.

If we can change things, consequence is meaningless.
If we can't change things, we've jumped ship of five years of building up WoL as the absolute unknown variable that makes any outcome possible.
If we can't change things up to this point but can make things the "same" to set something up down the road, that's just a convoluted and contrived way of reaching the same conclusions you would have had without time travel... so why have time travel?

Indeed.

Alexander has the monopoly on actual time travel.
So the moment we see that black clock work coeurl again we'll know have time travel appearing in story.

till then TIME TRAVEL
