My name is Era, and I suggest that you use it. [ Her expression smooths out to something more neutral and difficult to read. ] Perhaps I am simply tired of people trying to judge and compare my world to theirs when there is no comparison. Hydaelyn is Hydaelyn, not any variation of 'Earth'.

And the Mothercrystal is most certainly sentient. She birthed my world and the ones parallel to it. For all intents and purposes she is my mother, so refer to her with respect.

Focus on breaking down Xistentia's reality then, and leave my world out of it. Perhaps you believe magic and science are synonyms but from my experiences they are not. There is an overlap, but they are not the same thing.
