Let's say that an annoyed Clovis simply drops Natani from this height. The highest clouds are Cirrus clouds at 12 kilometers up. Prince Clovis, who can read minds, Trace, and Lady Nora might all have the power to do this. Dropping someone from the clouds, watching their tumbling body break through the white fluffy sky, is a kind of panache not available to your average mage. I would put forwards that, if a mage were to attempt to kill another by dropping them, the highest they might go are the clouds. How high does he teleport her? Does he accelerate her downwards? Fortunately, we can test all these scenarios. Now let's think of our vengeful mage here. I'm going to assume she impacts soil, in this case, assuming a density of 2750 kilograms per cubic meter. We know the density of a muscular human and Natani's estimated volume, and multiplying them together gets us 90,000 grams or 90 kilograms. The average density of a human body is that of water or, in the case of someone muscular like Natani, likely higher, so let's call it 1.2 grams per cubic centimeter. Natani is about 0.2 meters taller, so I assume her volume is about 75 liters. The average height of a human is 1.67 meters, and the average volume is 66.4 liters. Using the data from this table, I found that Natani was 6' 3", or 1.9 meters in height. Natani may very well meet her end at the hands of a vengeful mage, and I want to anticipate the effect this may have on the other characters, namely, the kinetic repercussions. TwoKinds exists in a wild world of magic and mayhem, and sorcerers can die in all sorts of unexpected ways. I've used this beautiful program from the Imperial College of London and Purdue University to calculate the effects of Natani impacting the planet of Mekkan at various velocities. I know this is a pressing question on all of your minds.
