Quote #7
The precise origins of the Mage Wars have been lost in the fogs of Time, but Disc philosophers agree that the First Men, shortly after their creation, understandably lost their temper. And great and pyrotechnic were the battles that followed—[…]. (3.3.3)
We also explore the history of worlds that have never existed, and you never know what you'll find there. At least, we assume these worlds have never existed, but you never know.
Quote #8
"But I've thought about dragons all my life!"
In this place the frontier between thought and reality is probably a little confused. All I know is that once I was not, and then you thought me, and then I was. Therefore, of course, I am yours to command. (3.13.24-25)
As Twoflower explores, he finds his dreams. While we highly recommend exploring the world until you find your dreams, we also recommend scratching real dragons off that bucket list unless you find an avenue into another dimension.
Quote #9
There was a sudden darkness.
There was a brilliant flash.
The sudden departure of several quintillion atoms from a universe that they had no right to be in anyway caused a wild imbalance in the harmony of the Sum Totality which it tried frantically to retrieve, wiping out a number of subrealities in the process. (3.18.15-17)
Thanks to a hiccup in the physics of the universe, Twoflower and Rincewind explore an entirely new dimension where people fly in the bellies of metal dragons and are fed honey-roasted peanuts until they are spit out at their destination. Physics really does allow us to explore some pretty crazy stuff, and fiction-tweaked physics doubly so.
