Timestamp: 22nd of Spring, 512 AV
Location: Canrehne's cottage.
Time: Early in the morning.

Early in the morning, 22nd of Spring, 512 AV - the sun was shining. The air was fresh and the streets of Zeltiva were almost empty this early in the morning. Canrehne slowly opened her dainty eyes, squinting a bit before rubbing them with her hands.

"Aahhhh... what a wonderful day it is!" Canrehne said - clearly overjoyed because of the good weather. She slowly pushed the blanket off herself, sitting onto her bed before pushing herself off it. Standing up, she walked over to the window with a smile on her face. She took a deep breath, opening the window with a smile on her face. She then turned around, walking to her desk, sitting down - opening her book, which was still in progress. The Weeping Spirits is what it was called.

Canrehne then, still sleepy, ran her eyes through the first page - the page which is about mages being discriminated in Mizahar. A really, really saddening subject. After giving her first page a brief moment of though, she took her quill and opened the vial of black ink - dabbing the tip of the quill into it.


The Weeping Spirits


It is 512 After the Valterrian. Through the centuries, mages have been mistreated. Inhumane behavior was shown to them because they have been practicing advanced arts that not everybody could master. Most of them were born to be mages. Some decided to take the path whilst growing up. Some still use melee weaponry and magic. Some are specialists in the field of Personal Magic, some in the field of World Magic. Rare ones, worshippers of a certain God have Gnosis marks. Gnosis marks are signs of some kind of a blessing. However, they can be a curse as well. This was a sign that one was devoted to the Gods. Doesn't matter which, but the one was a devoted individual. Though I am not one of these, I am a mage, training myself in the fields of Malediction, Spiritism, Animation and Alchemy. I am somewhat an influential individual in the art of Malediction. Mages are still mistreated throughout Mizahar, even though their numbers are increasing. I, myself, am a mage. Just like you probably are, my dear reader. Mages.. mages are rather interesting. They can help you, make you their friend, introduce you to new people, Summoners can literally make you new friends and enemies, they can help you against ghosts and they can mix potions for you. But there is one thing they can't. They can not stand mistreatment. It is wrong, and it is something most mages frown upon. Judging one by the practice of their arts is like judging one because of their race. Plain unfair, simple and primitive. Uneducation at it's finest, I'd say. Usually, people aren't fond of mages practicing their arts in public. Nor in private, either! People frown upon it, they don't find it natural. However, we, find it natural. We are manipulating the surroundings, we're making the best out of it for (usually) the greater good of Mizahar.

The Definition of Spiritism:



Spiritism is a form of ancient world magic, which was made to deal with ghosts and undead alike. It is a shamanistic form of magic, developed by the ancient Alaheans. It was made to be an effective combat and support tool. Spiritists can withstand possesion and some can enslave ghosts, even. Spiritists can summon ghosts, create Soulmist and damage ghosts with weapons. (That is, if Soulmist is applied onto the weapon beforehand.)


The Definition of Soulmist:



Soulmist is the matter that ghosts are made from. Soulmist is also the key to the Spiritist's power. There are multiple ways of creating Soulmist. The common way is to make dough out of eggs, flour and soft cheese. Though, the dough must spend time in the Spiritist's body in order for the process to work.
