I assume that's what you're referring to? Or something else? For what it's worth, the Fog God asks nothing from you but loyalty. Her only desire is for us to be free in the truest sense of the word. What you do with what you're given is your choice. Obviously I am not saying that is the only solution, but every day I consider that we're here with no magic or wormholes or anything and we can all discuss magical theory forever and none of it will matter because this world doesn't even operate the same way as we're used to. I'm simply confident that even if you have to play someone else's game, you'll find a way to make it benefit you.
