This isn't an artificial construct purposefully made to affect minds. It's literally something that came about naturally due to magic, so it'll exist whether or not they do anything to it. So now that they know about it, it's better to keep an eye on it to prevent evil from messing with it than pretending it doesn't exist.
In the early seasons, Twilight, the elemental magician and Celestia's personal apprentice, experienced difficulty teleporting. This suggests that teleportation is highly advanced magic.

When Starlight swapped the marks on Celestia and Luna, they, along with the marks, gained the necessary magic to do each other's work.
The difference being, this arose from the place rather than being imposed upon it externally. It was explicitly stated as being the goal and essential to the state they were trying to build by the founders of that state. And it's not being administered by a normal human person but by that state made flesh.
Wait... Are you using 'magic' exclusively to refer to unicorn magic? If so, Stormsinger wants a word.
No. Trixie the pony doesn't have changeling magic. Trixie the human doesn't have any magic.
Has that happened yet?
I'd speculate it's better for actual superheroes like OL and Zatanna to expose them. Heroes have been around long enough to influence some of America's metaphysical processes (or to have their own metaphysical weight). A non-American, America-hating villain entering the heartlands and exposing a worm would probably cause additional problems in the medium and long term.
That's a relief. I was worried that I got the timeline mixed up.
No? They show up a lot, in fact, most of the "unknown" events in the show trace themselves back to the First One's.
But he doesn't gain their memories when doing that.
But he did need to change his appearance so everyone wouldn't treat him like a teenager.
Word of Zoat
Dude's not in any position to become the "stride amongst the giants" face puncher that Orange Lantern is.
The Eye swatted down someone backed by the power of the Great Machine, it wouldn't have any trouble taking out some human with a Power Ring.
But we haven't seen it create constructs of it.
The Shadows aren't the Vorlon's, so probably.
'lose'
'want to sort'
'on'
'minbari'
'me'
'Minbar'
Extra 'the'.
And here we see that Zeen Mataan would be a perfect fit for an orange ring!
Depending on the story they told him, that may just be annoyance at a simple bust-up or a suspicion something else is going on. I suspect he'll be keeping his eye on both 'Matthew Underwood' and Shaal Mayan while they're aboard.
Which helps give them a cover if they start telling stories about orange hammers. The concussion talking, you know...
...I'd be surprised if there were any tourists on Minbar, but people will try to get anywhere.
Act like you didn't realise you'd need one. That's believable.
At least that part makes some sense. Garibaldi's probably met Lennier enough to get he's a little... Zealous?
...Not anything humans would recognise as a weapon.
You could say that. But not directly.
Not the ring proper, no. He'd probably do more damage to his hand then their jaw.
Such as ringing ears from the sonic weapon? That's a little harder to explain.
I do like when adrenaline turns out to be our natural analog of other species' combat drugs. Part of our deathworlder charm.
Like the way head wounds can bleed surprisingly aggressively despite a tiny size? Plausible...
Not doing too bad a job of covering his ass, at least.
Probably take that long to get the paperwork filled out, especially if Delenn is distracted by the trouble involving her friend.
I wonder if Garibaldi will feel a little deja vu the next time he hears those words?
Time to face the music with the Minbari.
As much of the brush with danger as the brush with the Speaker.
Indeed. Not every day you meet someone touched by power like that.
And the perfect way to reward him.
Remarkably lucky, in fact, that he should meet the one person who could grease the wheels and get him that meeting promptly.
Not after that excitement... Or that fear.
Ah, yes. That passenger's 'unfinished business.' Hopefully it won't be too disruptive.
...And I think I see exactly what it is. An unfinished holy building... A soul with unfinished business...
And there they are.
And hopefully that will stop the blooming arguing...
Nah, who am I kidding?I would imagine 'Zeen' is a title rather than a family name. Minbari don't generally use family names that way, do they?
It seems the architect wants to speak for herself...
Huh, such a prosaic reason for what people interpreted as a grand gesture of compassion.
Ah, the shattering of illusions.
Oh, that's going to be fun when it comes time to let her out again.
Not unless you want her to suffer an apoplectic stroke.
Going to Minbar would be extroidinarly stupid given you have a Drakh in your head.
And she should believe you, why?
Not that it will matter given the Minbari aren't going to listen to a human so your only choice will be to try and finish it yourself.
As shown previously, he involuntarily assumes the form of the soul he lets control his body. SO it wouldn't be a glowing orange human. It would be the famous architect come back from the dead / escaped from soul hunters (depending on how known her capture was) with the powers of First Ones to finish her project.
Na, she's the extroidinarly rare Minbari xenophile and he just Knight in Shining armored her.
Thank you, corrected.

Last time the Warrior Caste were on Babylon 5 in any numbers, the Religious Caste merked them.
More than interesting. "Ring, scan and manufacture a ton of the immortality serum" is absolutely something he would do. "Oh, what's that, the serum requires something to be extracted from living sophonts? I have a magic ring.". The only question is whether he'll force dose everyone on the station, and if the serum requires continuous injections (I don't think so, but I'll need to rewatch the episode).
No, it would not.
The Vorlons would kill him if he tries to hand out immortality.
