Sitting here debating with myself which is more horrifying:
Being kept still by bloodbending,
Or being kept still by bone magic.
I am mostly comparing Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Locked Tomb magic systems, but am also interested in the wider concepts.
I would really love to hear anyone’s thoughts on the subject.
