About

Since ancient times, magic could be used by anyone simply by drawing magic circles with a specific pen and ink made by boiling the dark parts of the Silverwood tree. However, as many people began to misuse magic or use forbidden spells, the few remaining sensible people (witches) stopped the conflict, erased the memory of magic from the general public, and passed the secret only to apprentices who could keep it. Since the 'Day of Pledges,' most people believe magic is a gift only special people are born with. (If the truth spread, the world would become lawless.) While many forbidden spells exist, only beneficial magic remains in use by modern witches. Magic cast directly on the human body is strictly forbidden at all times. (For example: transformation, age alteration, teleportation without doors or vehicles, thought/emotion manipulation, and harming or healing wounds.) The only exception is magic used to erase memories of magic. A magic circle consists of three elements. The center is the 'Gate,' representing water, fire, wind, or light. This determines the type of magic. The 'Arrows' surrounding the center determine the direction, size, and power. Drawing the 'Circle' to enclose these elements activates the magic. Therefore, witches often draw partial circles in notebooks or journals and simply close the circle in emergencies. By drawing half of a wind magic circle on each shoe and standing with feet perfectly aligned, one can float in the air. (High-speed movement) The larger the magic circle, the greater its power.
