[ Lucy carefully absorbs what Gilgamesh says, and finds herself making a wordless noise of assent or thoughtfulness here and there. Admittedly, she hasn't thought about things like this place's history or what mythologies they might have, if gods might exist, so they're new topics for her to consider. Topics that are pretty firmly out of her wheelhouse, so she's sure that any musing she does is uneducated at best. ]

Magic and tech seem pretty well intertwined here to me, but I'm not sure we can extrapolate a whole world's history just from one city. This might be the only city like it.

[ She kind of doubts that, because from what she can tell, Magisteria seems fantastically successful, and other cities would probably try to copy that success. Unless the rest of the world hates tech or magic. ]

But if there's a faction here that wants one to rule the other... yeah. That could definitely be a source of tension. Symphony of disruption.

[ She leads them around a corner, and into the cafe she uses sometimes. It's half punk and half music nerd, holos of music posters covering the walls and tables, and an eclectic crowd. Lucy snags them a spot in the queue, judiciously ignoring the amused glances she's getting at the glitter coming off her in waves at every movement. ]

Whatever it is, we've come at what looks like a turbulent time. [ Lucy rolls her eyes. ] Good for us.
