Giggle. "Uh, is reality listening only to outwardly discernible actions I take or does it have - do-what-I-mean?"

"There is definitely a strong do-what-I-mean component."

"Cool, that's easier."

The Queen nods.

"So loosely - end to eternal warfare and dependence thereupon. Protocol for interaction with other worlds. Protocol for growth. General tidying up and improved - legibility?"

Thoughtful nod.

"What do you mean by legibility?"

"I don't have a lot of complimentary things to say about the uncaring laws of physics and their unceasing regularity but I do like that it's easy to learn more about them and then exploit that."

"I see what you mean. On the other hand, there's a sense in which a world like this is overly vulnerable to exploitation - if it were perfectly clear exactly how everything worked, and an outworlder showed up who happened to prefer eternal warfare, I'd have some trouble dealing with them..."

"I was more thinking about the use case of the locals. It might be easier to hedge out outworlder influence if there was a solid set of known rules that they could learn about."

"Hmm. That could work."

"Reservations?"

"I could see a more legible world being an advantage or a vulnerability or both, and I think the difference is likely to turn on fine details but I'm not sure which ones or whether we will have knowledge or control of them. So I have reservations but I want to explore the possibility in case it can be done well."

Nod.
