What is all this? These pictures in my book. They're awful. People are dying. Suffering. Surely this can't all be real. So many people hurting like this...

Please tell me it isn't true. That it is some awful illusion. It must be.

Perhaps you have more good endings than bad ones. Wouldn't that be a novel experience?

Really? You could pick your future as if you were choosing a new mask, choosing which ever one you find most interesting.

You are so certain of that?

Does your world follow some practice wherein the eldest does not inherent the family's fortunes?
masked_god: (mask - thinking really hard)

Oh? That is a new one. What happens to the second sibling?
masked_god: (mask - unimpressed)

And how, exactly, do you measure success?

How...small

In that case, would not the eldest gain the most experience of all siblings? After all, while they might fail, at the same time they have the opportunity to learn the most from their failures. Those who succeed too easily live lives bereft of meaning and true understanding.

It seems to me that you have given yourself a self-fulfilling prophesy.

Would that more follow your lead. It would make people much easier to control.

Hardly. Imagine how much pain a true leader could prevent if all their subjects were so willing to avoid adventure for fear of failure.

Are you so certain that it hasn't already?
