Fantasy vs. Science Fiction

#58
Auto-translated
By the way, any laser will simply bounce off the scales :P
Here, the situation is ambiguous. In a sci-fi world that adheres to existing realities, reflecting a laser off scales is unlikely, but it is quite possible in a fantasy world if the author wishes to give the dragon such a magical property.

In my opinion, any combination of cyborgs and golems, lasers and dragons, modern art installations and gremlins, etc., will constantly lead to similar contradictions, in other words, "science vs. magic." :)
O God of Earth and Altar,
Bow down and hear our cry,
Our earthly rulers falter,
Our people drift and die,
The walls of gold entomb us,
The swords of scorn divide,
Take not thy thunder from us,
Take away our pride.


G.K. Chesterton: English Hymnal
