Studies of the Scholar - Magic

What is Magic? Many individuals were ever so curious to what magic really is? Does it create miracles or bring forth disaster? Can it grant one's happiness or sadness? Is Magic good or bad? In order to answer these Inquiries, it is imperative to know what magic really is.

Magic is a class of mystery that surpasses all kinds of science and craft and represents events that are unachievable through the mere expenditure of time and resources, so no matter the difficulty, events brought about through such methods will never be seen as Magic. Magic itself will never fade out, as the arrival of magi at existing or yet uncharted Magic can allow for new Magic to be born and the numbers to be increased. The actual chance is more difficult than a camel passing through the eye of a needle and finding one speck of a jewel in the desert, but it is not impossible.


"In my experiences, magic is a kind of energy that is similar to how the soul is developed. Our souls are like Ice and magic is like water, unlike the soul, magic is the non-crystallized energy that flows freely across the universe."

Mejai believed if it was put this way, then as such the soul can be a catalyst in order to bring forth magic, the Soul however can also harness the energy in order to replenish itself. As to how Mejai described the "Soul" as "Ice" and that "Magic" is "Water" if too much magic is embedded in the soul, it melts away completely turning into magic itself.


Its implied if one were to reach the ultimate origin of magic itself and commune with the mysterious class of energy, it is possible for one to become living magic. However having to completely become living magic is a difficult process and could prove to be irreparable once done. Our soul can become magic but once converted into magic, everything about the soul will be lost almost permanently and whatever is left of it will return to the life cycle, starting life anew. This however is the reason why reincarnation is possible or at least one of the possible methods of reincarnation.

True magic

Magic served wonders for humanity in more ways than one, that in fact it became a part of life and defined us who we are in this world, or so at least according to one of my students. To others magic is a miracle but also a destructive force as well. If magic allows the impossible to be made possible without any scientific explanation, it is then what we call “True magic”.

True magic is a rarity and not everyone can learn True magic, however given that magic is commonly learned, man’s evolution caused a huge decline for True Magic and thus they wouldn’t be considered as True Magic anymore. If a miracle keeps on repeating itself, the pure essence of True Magic wouldn’t be able to exist.

Limitations of Magic: Ressurection

Though magic can accomplish almost everything, it isn’t entirely perfect as one perceives, for instance magic cannot truly resurrect someone from the dead or rather it’s almost impossible to raise someone from the dead almost perfectly. Bringing life back to a dead person is possible but there is just one flaw, life may have been restored but the body will never be the same again. Naturally the body of a mage would serve as a catalyst to invoke the internal workings of magic, if a body died but was brought back to life, the body’s ability to recreate magic will be lost forever.

This is an absolute rule the universe set before us, no matter how much we long for a relative to come back to life, we can truly never reclaim them, not as if they were once before, thus one of the limitations of magic itself. If a Crystal were to have melted and reformed, would it still retain the exact shape as it was?
