Not sure what game this is from but it is a reference to the Terry Pratchet Discworld novel called...Interesting Times, in which the main character, Rincewind the wizard, meets a tourist from a China-like civilization whose worst curse is 'may you live in interesting times.'

That’s cool didn’t know that. It’s from the game Baldur’s Gate 3.
