Do you count yours among them, then, or is it unfamiliar to you?

[there's a little more noticeable curiosity, there.]

[hmmm that is an interesting one to answer]

I suppose... there is some magic, rare as it is, that is almost a marriage to mythology, in my world.

[arkitect]

Is that so...

[a considering hum, there.]

Then it is certain to be far removed from mine. It is part of the very world-- of life itself.

[recrowns]

Ah - so... everyone in the world gets to wield magic? Is it something that they're born with the ability to tap into?

[arkitect]

Not all. There are those born without the innate ability, who must turn instead to other means to advance and defend themselves from such nations that do wield it. But whether they may access it or not during their lives, all return to the aether.
