magic.overview_magic Magic Overview The Four Currents The Nature of Magic in Fir'Gol magic overview Magic in Fir'Gol is the residue of a primordial division — the splitting of Pah'Nad into the mortal world (Fir'Gol) and the Arcane Sea (Yoos'Okaaz). It manifests in four distinct currents: two that arise within living beings (Inhimog), and two that exist in the wider world (Kaanurlmog). Magic in Fir'Gol is not a single force but a constellation of distinct currents, each with its own origin, nature, and relationship to the beings that encounter it. When the primordial whole — Pah'Nad — split …

Neither can be wielded or cast. Both exist whether or not any living being attends to them. Outer Magic is the domain of the world — forces larger than any individual that shape reality without being shaped in return. Kaanurlmog describes all magic …

The suppression ran in phases for twelve hundred years, ending with dragons reduced to symbol everywhere. The wounds were never closed and are maintained still by three of the Five; Yoori resists falsehood by nature and has been healing without their consent since …

The myth as it exists today was not inherited: the Fírâî suppressed all memory of the day in the Great Forgetting that followed, and this account is a reconstruction, assembled from …
