See, I always wondered what a person is writing when it's obviously alien world (as opposed to fantasy world), with fairly scentific explanations for things, but the technology level is pre-industrial and there's magic.
Or something like that.
I get sick of the fantasy mining mythology thing. I like that, but really, it's so limiting. There's no reason why a fantasy world has to look like Midieval Europe, only cleaner. Culturally, politically, there's no reason it can't be all original, and pretty liberal and ground breaking, but it's alway the same!
...
I will take my rant somewhere more appropriate for it. >_>
