Based solely on this image, who do you think will win? What leads you to this conclusion?
Well, what is a spell? It’s just a combination of words. Words are given power by intent. Take a spell for fire. Someone, somewhere, speaks three random words every time he lights a campfire. They may not even mean anything, and initially, they will make no difference. For the rest of his life this man speaks the words each time he lights the fire. He teaches other people the words, they teach more. It becomes tradition- then, eventually, people find that the fire starts easier when they speak the words. Someone writes them in a book. Now anyone, anywhere, with a copy of that book can start a fire with ease. After an age has passed you don’t even need firewood.
It’s the same with relics and potions. A relic is just an object that’s been used for the same purpose with the same intent for a few thousand years. A potion is just a combination of ingredients, like a combination of words.
Magic beats science every time. Science is very, very limited.
I don't see Gandalf with a Stardestroyer.
Cultures with swords have, historically speaking and without exception, pulverised those with armour-piercing bullets. Everyone knows this.
(I voted SF. Can you tell?)
In ze wars, no one truly wins.
