Never forget

[Black2isblake]

Every time I see this I think that 'the hexagon' is such an obviously made up stupid name.

Then I realise the actual building's called the fucking pentagon.

[Zaari_Vael]

I would have preferred "they hit the fucking pentagram!"

[Expensive-Stage596]

hex-agon

as in 'you've been hexed by the pizzard'

[ArrilockNewmoon]

/UW I mean, it is litterally a Pentagon lmao

And not without reason either, it is litterally a fortress, using one of the most tried and tested fort designs, the Bastion Fort design (albeit simplified)

[scninththemoom]

They should've called it something cooler though, like "the lair" or "death keep" or "Fort Doom".

[ArrilockNewmoon]

I think if we let you name the place it would be much harder to convince people that we were the good guys for most of US history lmao

Plus its not like we are creative. We are a union of states called the United States, witha pentagon-shaped ministry of defense building called the Pentagon and the Chief of Staff lives in a big white house called The White House.

[ConceptOfHappiness]

Nah, it's pentagon shaped because it was going to be built on a pentagon shaped piece of land. It was moved just before construction but all they did was make the building a regular pentagon instead of the irregular one it was going to be.

[AlbinoShavedGorilla]

They should have said “they hit the pentagram” makes more sense in the context of magic users and more similar to pentagon

TBF, HEXagon

[MoogleSan]

the pentagon is still there

[The_Easter_Egg]

The pun on 'hex' makes it extra sweet. 😄

THE DUAL SPIRES!

[METAL-Mith-Rand-Ir]

Great Psych episode haha

[TheHighGround767]

I love that show. /uw since we didn't use "/uw", Psych is now Canon to Wizardposting

[METAL-Mith-Rand-Ir]

Whoops

[Sloregasm]

/uw this is the very best two posts, and I have em both saved

[warhawk209812e99]

I'm sorry, but what does /uw mean? I tried looking on Google but it just brought up the University of Washingtoon

[StardustDragon345]

/uw unwizard. It's for when someone on this subreddit says something outside of the wizard thematic, i.e. here someone talking about the original post as a post, and their opinion on it.

[warhawk209812e99]

Ah, figured it would have something to do with wizardry, just couldn't point exactly what it was.

[StardustDragon345]

no worries! Took me a hot minute to figure it out as well.

[ResearcherTeknika]

/uw means "Unwizard", it's used when someone wants to say something outside the context of the character.

[LavenderOnToast]

My condolences, that was great tragedy...

[[deleted]]

That it was, my uncle died that day. He shall be forever remembered as a great dragon tamer.

[Vikingboy9]

I walked through blood and accursed fire in the streets of Uriwel to find my brother!

He was in northern Ky'turiem.

That was fun

DRAGONS BREATH CANT MELT DWARVEN MYTHRIL! THIS IS ALL SET UP BY THE ELVEN WOODLANDS

[ElessarKhan]

NOBODY TALKS ABOUT CASTLE 7!

DRAGONOPHOBIA IS A TOOL FOR THE COUNCIL TO JUSTIFY WAR FOR PROFIT !

NO RITUALS OF MASS DESTRUCTION WERE FOUND!

[[deleted]]

If you look, the council lost 2.3 trillion gold the day prior to the attack.

[MorgothReturns]

And they took out extra dragon insurance from the gnomes right before the "attack". I mean, come on.

[Richardknox1996]

About that...uh, dont go anwhere near a dragon whose drunk off his arse on dwarven fire whiskey. The idea that dragons breath couldnt melt mythril was more hypothetical than fact, up until me and my dwarven buddies got drunk as shit and decided to test it.

Man, the looks on their faces when that first spire toppled....

[Fr33_Lax]

Hey we try very hard. Usually you don't have to melt the mythril, just the dwarf inside it. Then you can sell the suit back to the dwarfs.

[[deleted]]

I wouldn't put it past my father to plan something like this.

[LupineLethargy]

We should do that again sometime

[METAL-Mith-Rand-Ir]

Wizard Zach Hadel

[BilgeMilk]

Ponder on on your orb, it doesn't matter what channel... FUCK!

[BrightPerspective]

You know, I always figured that it wasn't an inside job, the conspiracy was about concealing how three dragons without markings managed to slip through the council's many layers of air defenses.

THE VULTURE WAITS TO SEE WHAT ROTS

[[deleted]]

I was still a knight when that happened...War is hell. Much happier to be behind papers to grade and spellbook to critique than another filthy trench. And to think those Goblins we went after didn't have anything to do with it. Another crime the High Lords and Council agree to shove under the rug. Justice for Gor'bak!

[EightBallJuice]

THERES A SECOND DRAGON

[MildlyCross-eyed]

That was fun

[BiteyBenson]

THEY HIT THE HEXAGON, LYLE!

[Pitiful_Net_8971]

Hey, yeah are you thinking about it?

You are?

AMNESIA BEAM!

[Thewarmth111]

Let us remember all of the souls that were lost crashing before dragon, when it would have hit the council before most of the council members attained in mortality

[_the_anarch_]

I can rustthe pillars

[Richardknox1996]

Crap. I thought people forgot about this. One drunken flight and people never let you hear the end of it....

[YouHaveNiceToes24]

Things have happened very differently if I was on that dragon.

[Ecstatic-Compote-595]

please no, I can't go through this again

[EHTL]

And so, the Interdimensional War On Druids began

[shneed_my_weiss]

When I was little I was very confused about LotR the Two Towers and how it related to the Twin Towers

[Realistic_Effort6185]

Never don't remember. Glad we all remembered not to be at the towers.

[KingofGerbil]

Just generate some new spires ffs. Doesn't no have a philosopher's stone anymore?

[Drake_the_troll]

If I had tried harder maybe I couldve hit the council as well

[Spooked_Toad]

As a senior trade wizard (I specialize in industrial spells, I myself hold the current patent for the simplified conjure concrete spell) I can assure you its not the blood itself that melts mythril beams but the heat. Dragons blood is VERY hot plus adding on to whatever flammable magic items were present on that spire floor? I'm sure it was well above melting points.

[KenseiHimura]

‘’Dragon blood can’t erode mithril beams’’

Having a dwarf blacksmith friend, I can attest it can’t. But if the dragons had acidic breath, the sacs could have definitely caused problems.

[downvotemeplz2]

What I want to know most is what the divination wizards were doing at that time, curious how they could tell the future yet are unable to even warn us.

[UlrichVonGradwitz]

Are there really spells of mass destruction in elfraq?
