《Circle of Shards》Q&A 1
Advertisement
Author's note:
Well, the story is reaching whole new arc. The promised Questions and Answers are here. Not that many, but I got some interesting PMs. As I got questions only through RRL, this Q&A will be also exclusively posted here.
What Word is MC then?
There are some hints, but revealing it will come later. Every person, unless special case like almost uniformly water-souled Taistealaithe, has to realize his Word himself, as there may be special nuances associated with the deep meaning of specific words (like “hundred words for snow” situation)
Who made the Frankensteins?
One of the mages’ fraction that participated in the all-out war between city states. Basically, the mages-ruled world was composed of many city-states similar to medieval Italy. And each area had their own specialties and know-how. Some were necromancers, some technomages, animal-breeders, body enhancers, controllers, druids, some built magic-powered golems, while others built TES-style Dwemer-like soul-powered tech and so on. And if we add all sort of mixed skills, there were all sort of combinations. And of course, some city got mages that focused on controlling corpse dolls, which needed quite a lot of processing so that these could do more than just wander around and get stuck in narrow places. All the above led to continuous technological race, where cities constantly competed with each other openly and undercover (competitions, espionage, intrigues etc). An artifact like Beating Iceheart was of strategic importance, so when the global war finally broke out, quite a few forces went for that.
Who threw the spear?
Unknown, yet ^^
So, what was the world with pyramids? Xibalba?
Nah, Mayan Xibalba would be much more crowded, bloody and stuff, as it would be quite actively revitalized by constant studies of Mayan folklore and surviving religious groups that claim to be "traditional Mayan believers". It was an early “dreamland” created from the dream of an unknown powerful priest from early Mesoamerican culture.

Who were the mages?
Refugees of another magic civilization that left their old world. Went the way of developing magic instead of technology.
What is Beating Iceheart?
An artifact of unknown origin (OOPArt), which ended up in the magic civilization where mages first came from. And was taken with them when they changed worlds. Such things drift around countless worlds among endless piles of junk. Because different worlds may have differences in natural laws, replicating an item that by some chance keeps working according to completely different principles is usually impossible.
Why didn’t MC do , he got supermemory and insane processing speed?
Well, yes, most of his mental powers go towards that rather cool-headed patient attitude he got (or rather, I tried to convey it like that). He may remember thousands of book/movie/etc scenarios, but he still needs to adapt those to current situation = so sometimes “obvious” solutions may be difficult to see even for a “superhuman”.
Our Earth is the “First World” and central world and whatever? Why?
Insane creativity of humans is to blame. ALmost no fantasy describe elves/other races as very imaginative, so I designed a vast majority of worlds to be created by humans (yes, there are Middle-Earth, Westeros, Coruscant, a dozen versions of Hells etc somewhere around), with some of them having a time paradox of having history longer than the Earth itself (lets say hello to xianxia with worlds hundreds of billions years old).
You don’t reveal what Word is MC, but at least, what stage is his Word? According to chapter 28, stages are Word I never said that that grading of stages is correct. ^.^ It was just a conjecture by Victor and Eala.

I Am the God of Games
This is the tale of an earthling, who transmigrated as a dying third-rate god but somehow rose through the ranks, gaining followers and eventually causing the Fourth Great Apocalypse. ☆ "Have you ever heard of the God of Games?" "The God of Games..?" Eleena shook her head in puzzlement. "I have never heard of Him…" "What if the God of Games could give you the power to defeat your enemies?" Xi Wei coaxed patiently. Eleena remained silent for a while, before resolutely lifting her head and fixing her gaze on Xi Wei. "Then I am willing to become a believer of the God of Games!" "Belief isn't something to only be spoken by mouth. Close your eyes and envision His name in your mind, and feel His power with your heart," he said solemnly. "O Master of Games, grant us new life!"

Talius
The two moons of Talius gleam with a hypnotic glow; Araius with the color of a cooling blue, and Kranos beaming in a gentle orange. Arairus obscures Kranos with his enormous celestial body, letting Kranos peek out only halfway. This means that it's the month of Gantelos, the season of cold that hovers over Talius for half a year. It also notifies the residence of this planet that the dreadful Fuune will rise from the deep snow, deep from beneath the crust every night and feast on the humans who inhabit this tundra-infested world.

Two Existentialists | S.R.
"How many existentialists does it take to screw a lightbulb?" Spencer asked with a small laugh. Once again the room was silent. You faintly heard Agent Rossi mutter, "Don't.""2. One to change the light bulb and one to observe how it symbolizes an incandescent beacon of subjectivity in a netherworld of cosmic nothingness," he said. The room was silent still, until you laughed. His eyes looked up at yours in confusion. "Wouldn't they sit in the dark and hope that the bulb decided to light again? An existentialist would never change the bulb. He would allow the darkness to exist," you questioned.-#1 #spencerreid#1 #mgg#1 emilyprentiss
