I think I got to the part where things turn celtic or thereabouts, but after that I sort of got lost and didn't get anywhere. Or I was getting my rear end kicked by monsters. Fun game, but sometimes very maze-like.

The Iskai never really considered the human way because they hit on their magical way of doing things, while the humans had no access to the Iskai way and so did things differently. It's sort of a parallel technological development rather than one being advanced and the other primitive, as noted by Rainer and Fasiir having a long conversation where both gain some better insight into what the other's doing. Fasiir's a local equivalent of a scientist, their science and scholarship just works out differently. I really appreciate that, as someone who studies history and gets really sick of people talking about how 'dumb' ancient peoples were. Also, at least so far in the game, we don't know how long the Iskai have been around or had a civilization when compared to humans. It isn't like humans and them evolved at the exact same time, at least as far as I can remember. It might be possible for them to reach a level on par with the technological humans given time and some prodding from their new arrivals.
