[Unfortunately the pun falls flat - not on account of any lack of interest in engineering, even if it is unlikely he'll turn his hands to such things. Just Vlast's usual under-developed sense of humour.]

I am Vlast.

My own world is called Tyria and it is not so different from Thedas. More technologically advanced in places, I suppose, though I have read that Minrathous has magitech comparable to that of Rata Sum. The prejudices between sapient races are less pronounced, but no less petty and absurd. The people in general are not such withering cravens in the face of peculiar magics.

What of yours? You mentioned two wars.
