Riigan Magic
Types of magic in Riiga, as categorised by the Carson Institute in Benevis Kingdoms.
Terminology and Factors
Terminology
Aether
Aether is magical energy in its purest form, unaltered by sentience and will. All living things contain small amounts of aether which acts as a fuel for life.
Magic
Magic is aether which has formed a spell, generally visible to the naked eye after having passed through a sentient wilful caster.
The Tolus
The tolus is an invisible atmosphere containing all aether and surrounding the world in layers that permeate the physical realm.
Cannas
Aether moves in flows of cannas within the tolus, which move in similar scales to oceanic tides or weather patterns.
Venas
An invisible vena forms between a wilful sentient caster and a canna, moving aether into the caster until the desired quantity is stored.
