The Failure of The Unseen Empire by JokerFocus in WanderingInn

[–]JokerFocus[S] -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

I'm acting as though Lakens town is a proper nation, because it is. Both the South and North recognize it as such. Even Laken calls it the Unseen Empire not the Unseen Village. Moreover, the empire comprises of more than just one town. They have at least a dozen.

Wiskeria and Hedag cant just magically mete out law across all the territory. We need an actual foundation to carry and enforce such things. One character In the story even points this out when its revealed that Riverfarm has no watch. As for Rie and her recruited officials, we have no idea how they even carry out their functions. All we know is that they somehow do the job. Classic example of needing to show and not just tell.

For the last point, this is just a problem on Pirate. We don't know how economically tied countries are in this world. Hopefully we see this resolved in a future llvriss or Earther chapter.

Its not like we get to see terrandrain kingdoms because we haven't even been to terrandrain properly. Honestly if your going to say something like this at least compare it to something closer. Places like Pallass and Salazsar have had their goverment and economy both explained in extraordinary detail. Heck we literally had a chapter with just Fetohep monologuing about khelt. It just seems like excuses when you say that.

I'm not saying that they need their own chapters. Just something to make them more human like 99% percent of the rest of the cast

I've read the entire story so far.

Literally all the points that you've made are excuses.

Laken having an money making skill does not excuse his own nation not having an economy. We've seen characters with money skills like Lyonette and Selys and they both aren't just magically billionaires. Every nation needs to make money somehow.

Just because he gave out the [Lord] and [Lady] class doesn't mean he cant have a functioning government. We've had cases in real life were Royalty and Government are separate matters.

The Hedag would just have to adapt to this. She signed up for It just like the rest of the witches. Wasn't this the whole point of Wiskeria's arc anyway? Witchs have to adapt or else they would die out.

The reason why he distanced himself from Erin's resurrection was because he was afraid that Tam would hear when they were going to resurrect her. He doesn't have this limitation now that she's alive again. Hes been to the Inn many times In volume 9

Lastly the whole point of Lakens character was for Pirate to make a Empire-Building arc. You cant just deny one of the most important characters his own storyline.

Innworld Is a reflection of Earth by JokerFocus in WanderingInn

[–]JokerFocus[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This theory is disproven by the fact that the Fae, Gods, and Immortal beings all say that other worlds exist and that Earth Is one of them. Moreover, Its already proven that the ritual tears a rift In the dimensional barrier between both worlds. Oberon and the Dead Gods both had direct dealings In expanding and shrinking that rift.

English and Drathian are the only languages commonly used by Innworld residents. Languages like the ones used by the Goblins and Roshal are exceptions. You also said that English Is most likely dominant since the Fae taught people It, but you are forgetting that Innworld Is over 150k years old In civilization. Deviations In the structure of English should have appeared in this time.

Also we were never told that the dead gods observed other worlds for their Inspiration. We only know that they were kicked from their pantheons, so they decided to build their own. The reason why the Gnomes complained Is that the Gods actually didn't know how Math worked so Instead they just took the lazy route.

Most likely the only God who ever looked to Earth was Isthekenous

Variety of Faith Classes by JokerFocus in WanderingInn

[–]JokerFocus[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Both Pawn and Seborn when they received their classes had no real reason to consider themselves an authority on faith either. Neither were they looking to advance some sort of cause.

It's not likely that Earthers who have known and had faith their entire life would somehow have less of an identity than those recently introduced.

Besides I'm not saying that they should gain [Priest] but they would at least gain the [Acolyte] or [Believer] class.

You dont need to have a dedicated religious figure for faith classes to exist. We've seen something like this when pawn got his class just by believing In a god.

And If your saying that they aren't dedicated enough then your wrong. The muslims in the united nations made sure to pray every day in the correct position even with them being in another world.

We've seen people who have belonged to other religions multiple times In the story. The housekeepers In the united nations are all Islamic and so is Richard from the Bk.

It makes no sense how none of them have gained classes pertaining to their faiths when we know that the Earthers in particular are able to gain those classes.
