    diegetic


    especially : existing or occurring within the world of a narrative rather than as something external to that world

    Cool thanks :)

      yeah i thought it was cool how they literally handed the protagonist the notebook and straight up said “this is how you’re going to document your assignments at the academy, also please make sure you summarize other things you learn, and lastly there are reference guides for the magitech tools you’ll be using and various combat scenarios already in it as well”. it’s neat that it’s both a menu element and a prop in the world that is interacted with in-character.

      i’m glad i knew the word ‘diegetic’ to describe it :D
