Much technology was lost after the Elven persecution of Knowledge and the Blue Catastrophe. The Memex machine is our advanced masterpiece.
The FanTech Future Puppet of Las Palmeras. What happened to the inter-dimensional pioneers stuck in a fantasy land of Medieval Stasis? From the ashes of modern civilization arose a derivative, a shadow of it's former self...see Selenare!

Much of our technology is based on information recovered from the remains of alien civilizations. Currently, alien data is a highly sought after resource, second only to godlike artifacts such as Pandora Objects.

There are some schools (privately funded) that trains young women on how to be a good prostitute and how to seduce men into throwing money at you.

We are indifferent to cross dressers, as it has been normalised for god knows how long.

It is considered normal for the more dominant partner in a relationship to walk the other on a leash. In public. And naked.

Feast your eyes on real evil deeds and not cartoon villainy:
Selenare wrote:"Granted, 'we' are no saints either, especially when revenge occurred. The strategic bombings using dirigibles and heavy bombers were only strategic at a beginning. With the chemists' revolution came the use of thermobaric munitions and blood-agents in very densely populated areas, this can only be seen as something more personal.

With the military defeat of the elves came the disarmament of their fallen areas and the vast majority of their metal was taken, the plunder and mass rape occurred nonstop at the hands of the Lunar and Muscovite armies. Their nobility and their religious heads were systematically liquidated, their museums were left empty, their houses of worship were reduced to rubble, their scriptures all burned. The kingdoms that resisted were convinced that even surrender would not spare them this fate; and they were bombed with such force that many were left homeless in the North's cold. Instead of sieges, we also introduced pestilence with vermin. With their unconditional surrender, we demanded compensatory damage for home. The cities that fell to us were subjected to demolishing at the hands of forced labor for the pretty white marble that went towards creating the capital city of María. The occupational forces made merry-making a humiliation, constantly making announcements that insulted their godly saviors that abandoned them, forcing their priestesses into 'services', making their men shave their heads 'like civilized peoples'.

Peace was then unbearable, for even if the atrocities lowered, the cultural torture was just beginning. Entire generations were taught the Gregorian calendar, the runes of entire generations were replaced by the Latin alphabet, their old pagan religion was mocked to nonexistence. 'We assimilated their magic to our needs and then 'purged' unnecessary knowledge from them. And then 'we' left that geriatric civilization to die in the cold of the North.

The elves have not come close to dying; however humanity's descendants with the Kemonomimi effectively left a genetic memory on the elves so devastating that their council of elders would probably think low of itself before even daring to raise it's voice at the conquerors."
