TWO TRUTHS AND A LIE



There have been a lot of riftfarers arriving lately. It seems like there have been more arriving than usual. So many different kinds of people from different kinds of worlds with stories to tell and experiences to give.

A little game has appeared on the shellphone network in hopes of getting to know just a little more about these otherworlders. You might find it on your shellphone as you’re scrolling through one day.

Tell the world two truths and one lie about yourself. And let others try and decipher which of the three is your lie. If they can guess right, perhaps you’ve been able to make a new acquaintance. Or in the least learn more about someone from another walk of life.

Have some insight you care to share?

I'll grant you that a one-off, localised adjustment to precipitation will not have adverse effects to the overall climate. The issue is that once you begin to normalise doing so year after year.

Constantly adjusting the weather such that it is perfect for you and you alone will eventually affect other regions. Then THEY will suffer and ask for help - and so on and so forth, your troubles accumulating until you are right back where you were in the first place and you realise you may as well have not meddled in the first place.

But of course, the one who began the practice will be dead by then.

And here I was just thinking of using it to create an advantage in battle or only when absolutely necessary to deal with adverse weather.

Sounds as if you've had the unpleasant experience of dealing with such a situation.


[Because that is very. Specific.]

Call it rather a mistake my people learnt from long ago.

Do not meddle with the weather unless you're prepared to shoulder the responsibility of caring for your star's climate for eternity.

I'll keep that in mind. I'm not really one to want to mess with the balance of life and nature unless it needs saving.
