BurmesePenguin 09/27/22 1:59:07 PM #29:	My issue isnt really internal consistwncy, its more that I dont believe that the world is real when every book has characters take on three or five different world ending threats. The timeline is tens of thousands of years and I just dont believe creation has managed to survive for as long as it has with the powers lying around every corner. Also basically every character is an Aristotles level philosopher in their internal dialogue and I just dont think thats good character writing.
