1.0; Reboot: Kefka 2, Electric Boogaloo
I am going to die of boredom if this keeps up!
[Here is a little pale man sitting on a ledge of rock. Only a few smudges of light make it through the clouds to show off the scarlet paint on his face and fill the hollow cheek bones.]
[He picks up a rock and throws it into the dark abyss below.]
How am I supposed to have any fun if nothing's on the line? A video game is nothing like real life. Game over; new game; continue. How can anything be fun if no precious lives are on the line? Now that I know the true nature of things, what's the point in continuing this farce of final boss?
[Kefka hops to his feet and starts yelling at the abyss.]
If they don't come back, I'll - I'll play loud music in the middle of the night. I'll kill someone and dance on his grave. I won't mix patterns for a week! I won't wear any bright colors! I'll destroy this universe and everyone in it, then hop to another and blast Never Going to Give You Up from the loudspeakers for hours at a time! So help me, if the ducks don't come back, I'll -
[A worldhop device falls out of the sky and whaps Kefka on the head. Kefka squawks, almost wobbles off the ledge, then tumbles onto his butt, off the ledge and onto the rocky ground.]
Yeouuuuch! What nasty creature dares hit Kefka on the head?!
[He looks up into the camera, then grins.] Ducks! You're back!

fucking oilvert
Does no one have a boat that can make it to the other continents? Can Mist be stored? What about taming a magical beast of some kind, given that they're usually more hardy than machines?
And you can usually bring your own magic to other worlds, so you're not completely out of luck! And I imagine you could barter something from your world for something from another's quite easily.

Won't know until I try...
[Fortunately the interface is much like Earth computers: a new tab pops up on the projected screen from the hijacked notebook.]
I think i'll save that for later. Thank you, Sir Palazzo, for the invaluable resource.
As for ships, only seaships can sail past the Mist continent, since they can sail on the wind and tide instead of just engines. Mist cannot be contained for long, since it can be volatile: keep it in storage for too long and it will spawn monsters spontaneously. As for beasts, I can think of none that most people could train that would equal a mechanical engine.
So you see, a new engine would revolutionize the world. I imagine technology developed to make up for lack of magic in other worlds, so I'm sure I can find someone willing to exchange knowledge with. Why, imagine not being able to cast the simplest little Cure spell!
