An excerpt from the discord about dungeons, rats and the perfect world.
H
I suppose it depends on how good we are at runes, how hard the dungeon is, and how easy it is to recognize concealed runes for what they are.
F
Well, we are clearly not at the master level, which means that we are below the advanced seventh year. It is doubtful that someone weaker will get through the other entrances.
Also, to understand that there are runes here, it's enough just to make them activate and understand where the impact comes from.
H
And of course collapsing the entrances won't solve much, as a wizard can just move the rocks aside, unless we apply beryllium bronze.
F
You can trace where the secret room connects to the dungeon and hide the entrance with the help of runes after filling up the passage.
Or when the heir of Gryffindor is found, ask the castle to fill the passages with beryllium bronze
H
Yeah, that could work.
F
But I don't think it's worth doing any of that. Judging by the fact that the secret room has not turned into a "top secret room for students", the protection is quite reliable. And the passages serve to give the basilisk the opportunity to walk in the wild.
H
Speaking of which, I'm not a fan of her murdering our ratty friends, and I'm unsure how to square that with her needing food.
F
Our rat friends are the ones who bring us information.
The rest are useless parasites that occupy the living space of our rat friends. So let's just warn our rats where they don't need to be, that's all.
And when all the rats are ours, we will send the oldest to die in the dungeon to ease their torment and feed the basilisk.
H
...as expected of a member of Neville's killer club, I suppose.
F
Speaking of rats. We need to get the rats to bring us their cubs in order to establish contact with everyone from birth. And not to run after each rat separately. At the same time, we will check whether the animals become smarter from prolonged contact with the speaker with them.
H
I don't think that many people will support establishing a despotic regime over the rats; I sure don't. Especially not Harry himself.
F
What's so special about it? We are sending old rats that have outlived their time to a well-deserved rest. Instead of dying long and painfully from organ failure, the basilisk will kill them instantly. The Basilisk will stop hunting rats uncontrollably, and with our help they will receive protection.
I understand that taking control of the death of rats will not be very glamorous. But if you look at it from a practical point of view, none of the problems will be solved if we leave everything as it is.
Many rats will die in agony (and Harry probably won't bother healing the actually dead animals), many young rats will be eaten in their prime. And besides, we must not forget that the basilisk needs to eat something.
I think this is a very good lesson to teach Harry to be responsible and that if the problem is not solved, it will not disappear from it
H
Geist, being a human supremacist, would sadly not object.
F
By the way, Harry is supposed to be too. After all, we chose a rational character instead of revenge, but as a result, I have a feeling that we have a third option with forgiveness.
But I confess honestly that through a similar operation. I hope to convince Harry that tax collection is a normal practice as long as it doesn't bother anyone.
H
Right, adding Basilisk Euthanasia Rat Despot onto the list next to that and killing Neville. At this rate, we can make an AU out of this.
F
We will become the god who brought order to the meaningless world of rats. We will erase the differences between them with the help of our will. We will rationalize their life and death and become their meaning-forming link in this world of endless survival without a goal.
We will start time where there used to be beginningless and endless chaos.
WE WILL CREATE A NEW WORLD FOR THEM!
I wonder if rats have enough intelligence to need religion?
Or is it enough for us to ask them to go to the dungeon where the snake is hiding.
