The Hot, The Cold, and the Functioning of our World
From ancient times of Rathnir to the modern day, Abex people had numerous ways to explain the workings and the creation of our world. Most if not all of them can be categorised as religions, but this may change as one of our scholarly citizens has come up with her own scientific and dialectical explanation NOT based upon some gods or supernatural forces, but upon a commonly-known phenomenon used in, for example, stone generators.
This week in Transaria, Yumiko Ulanov (SuperficialIntL) and another one of our comrades had a conversation about the nature of interactions between hot and cold mediums and how they can produce seemingly infinite amounts amounts of stone. The very next day after this conversation, comrade Yumiko published her theory called the "Sky-Void Duality" to the Zilatran knowledgebase. The main tenet of the so-called "Sky-Void Duality" theory is that the world was created due to a reaction between the sky and the void not so dissimilar to that one between the water (the cold medium) and lava (the hot medium) in the above-mentioned stone generator. The sky being the medium of cold and the void being the medium of heat, Comrade Yumiko claims that these two natural forces generated the world and all the things within it. Further, she claims that the large deposits of magma commonly found at the bottom of the world proves her theory. Yumiko concludes that by replicating these conditions we can theoretically make any existing material and even new ones too.
After reading this you may or may not ask, "That's great, but how useful would this be, if proven right?" First of all, we already use it not only in the many-times- mentioned cobblestone generator, but also in brewing and underwater bubble columns. As mentioned in the previous paragraph, we can theoretically make any existing and possibly even not yet existing materials in infinite quantities, therefore putting an end to all scarcity and rendering all money and social classes virtually useless, thus elevating Zilatran society to lower stage Communism (moneyless, classless, nearly stateless society).
