"Start with the second, why not."

"The 'canon plot' of the story features a terrible fate for you, personally- But if you manage to avoid it, and most who are really motivated to do thus manage, there's nothing stopping you from retiring as wealthy nobility with much better magic powers than you had before and a set of family and friends you picked for yourself, or whatever. The world continues on well after the story itself ends. And it can be a very good life if you avoid your fate. Or even if you don't- One of the options for what happens in the 'canon story' is mere social disgrace, and some people don't care about that."

Some of the other things I have - reference memories for - include the world freezing over and being saved by demons and angels, the world turning into a video game, something involving dragons-"

"Earth seems like a stable point. There's lots of Earth, each with its own weird thing. I don't know about Orion Lake."

"Classmate."
