[It's too bad that things have been So Srs since Guy arrived in the RP. Because the truth is he's been itching to do this for a while, but simply put! Everything was just too dangerous to allow him proper time to geek out

[nods nods, thinking about this]
To be honest, I've never heard of, or even thought of splitting an atom. And if I had, I would have assumed it was impossible. They're supposed to be the smallest part of matter, after all. Is that what your world uses for power?
As for the miasma... well. It probably wasn't a problem for a long time. The Planet Storm was created two thousand years ago, and was never meant to make the core vibrate. But we think that over that much time, irregularities occurred, just little things that upset it enough to make it not work perfectly. After all, it might be a machine the size of a planet, but cogs always wear down over time, and don't work quite as well.
[makes a face, like maybe his ancestors should have considered that]
The miasma began a long time, during the Dawn Age. The war then was so great it released shook up the core and released the miasma all over the land. It would have eventually poisoned everyone. So a woman named Yulia Jue used the Score to read the future of the planet, and based one what she learned, proposed an idea to raise the surface of the planet.
That's when our lands became the 'Outer Lands'. Using concentrated spouts of memory particles from Auldrant's core, our ancestors literally raised the entire surface of the planet miles above the core. The miasma continued to be released below the crust, but it wasn't a problem for a long time.

Ah... Yes, I was thinking it might have been because of its age...
[... She's just... bewildered at this. It's... well. Amazing. And it's hard to reply to.] ... But it eventually caught up, did it not? And forced you to try and do something about it...
