      When Chaos energy enters into the material world; the Choatic energy refacts into eight winds of magic.

      There is:

      • Hysh (Light)
      • Chamon (Metal)
      • Ghyran (Life)
      • Azyr (Heavens)
      • Ulgu (Shadow)
      • Shyish (Death)
      • Aqshy (Fire)
      • Ghur (Beasts)

        i love when lists like this include “metal” bc you can get a vague idea of when they were conceived.

        it’s a little like how everytime a standout hit movie or game comes out, without fail it’ll be topping “best x of all time” lists for a year or so. at least until the next big exciting thing releases lmao

          Is the vague idea of when they were conceived… Han dynasty China?

    Sounds like the Chinese variant of Diogenes at work, I’d love to hear more details - was this something that really happened or a clever tale constructed later? If those people were real, what else did they produce?

      All parables and proverbs are made up, with old characters added to give fake legitimacy.

          I’m pretty sure it’s illegal to lie if the text is yellow and scrolls from the bottom of the screen in 3D.

      Apparently the poet was “Su Dongpo” and the friend was “Fo yin” if you google the names together, this story comes up.

      Super random but there is also apparently a dish named after the poet: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dongpo_pork

        Damn, this guy went super hard.


        On the Birth of a Son

        Families when a child is born

        Hope it will turn out intelligent.

        I, through intelligence

        Having wrecked my whole life,

        Only hope that the baby will prove

        Ignorant and stupid.

        Then he’ll be happy all his days

        And grow into a cabinet minister.

        I love when a short chain of two comments have the same upvotes. People came here, liked the comments and thought:
        “Yep, succinct. No notes.”
        and moved along.

        Beautiful.

         

        Ahhh now I’ve fucked it
