I think it’s awesome how you can’t jump off the edge to your death in Bastion. The Kyrian are on top of it and will swoop in to save you. What absolute chads.
That’s because they are spying on you so careful what you think of their intentions.
Just do it out of spite.
They’ll let you drop eventually.
They just don’t want you joining the Kyrian in death, you die in Bastion you have to join them. Them’s the rules.
Ah yes, much like the nets placed outside of apple buildings in china to stop people jumping off.
I was successfully able to kill myself off the edge in Bastion by using the darkmoon cannon followed by the Zandalari racial equivalent of a goblin glider. I went far enough that I guess it wasn’t considered Bastion anymore.
Honestly if I had wings I would do that if someone was suicidal on a bridge.
In a less depressing thing, I imagine the Kyrian mostly take any chance they can to be extra with their wings and showing off
If only they could grab their own scrolls from the shelf instead of picking us up to do it for them at the end of one of the most annoying world quests there.
LOL, I completely agree. I think the scroll grabbing part should just be removed from that WQ entirely. And idk why I didn’t even think about it but yeah, why do they need to fly us up there when it would be significantly more convenient for them to just grab it themselves.
They don’t even have the decency to drop you off at the entrance of that area at the end either leaving you to run back through the area full of mobs to exit.
Meanwhile in Ardenweald…
Mall walker: jumps off the edge of the realm
Random Fae watching: “Do a belly flop!!”
They save you while grabbing you roughly by the neck. They save you just so they can end you themselves!
They are just messing with you. You can jump over the side and get help but jump off one of the many cliffs and you’re toast.
If you jumped off the right spot and landed on a floating island, you would die and have to take rez sickness. Been there, done that, obviously unintentionally 
Kyrian: “I’m going to pick you up and fly you over to the shelves so you can grab the scrolls.”
Me: “Why can’t you just grab the scrolls yourself?”
Kyrian: “Because my hands will be full holding you, of course!”

They are a big brother government. They need you to fuel their machines. Comply or die.
