i unironically believe electricity is the closest thing we have to magic in this universe. consider:
- it's basically what human "souls" are made of (your consciousness is the result of miniscule amounts of electric charge jumping between neurons in your brain)
- when handled incorrectly or encountered in the wild, it is a deadly force that can kill you in at least half a dozen different ways
- when treated respectfully and channeled into the proper conduits, it is a power source that forms the backbone of modern society
- if you engrave the right sigils into a rock and channel electricity into it, you can make the rock think
- there is a dedicated caste of mages (electrical engineers) tasked with researching it in ivory towers
- whatever the fuck Galvani was doing with those frog legs
- look at this and just try to tell me it isn't a kind of summoning circle
I need people to see these tags:
