(Please take this at face value as we can endlessly invent and add circumstances to any statement to disprove it).the way many in this thread would answer this is that a higher level character who could kill the dragon has more agency. He has the power to accomplish more and having power directly feeds into their conception of agency.I’m saying this isn’t right. Agency is being presented a situation with a dragon and making a meaningful choice. If you are level 1 that choice may be luring it off. That choice may be to hide for now and return to kill it when you are stronger. That choice might be to talk to it and offer yourself to it (you worship dragons after all).In any event all of these choices affect change which is a good chunk of what agency is all about.</blockquote>
