| - Magicka influences the living and the dead, the real and the unreal. It may be everything or nothing at all - but it has always existed and will be with us forever. Magicka is constituted by the spiritual energy of the world; its own nature is linked to the Flow of Souls, although it would be more precise to say it is one of its aspects. Magicka springs from spirits and reality itself. In a way, it can be thought of as the shadow of existence; it does not respond to the laws of physics or logic, but it alters the world as it pleases. The power of magicka is not homogeneous. It takes on varied shades as it merges with souls and comes into contact with different elements or emotions. In this way, it can be organized into diverse types as it passes through a wizard or stays in a specific emotionally charged place. Dark spells fueled by negative emotions, draw their power from magicka that has been in contact with feelings of anger, rage, fear, or hatred. While those spells associated with light rely on peace, tranquility, calm, and love. Not everyone can control the power of souls. It is not an easy task - not even for supernatural spirits themselves. However, some entities are born with the ability to sense magicka. They can let it flow through their bodies and channel its energy in the form of innate spells. Awakened are among those born with the gift of altering reality as they please. Wizards are a light in the darkness of magic; they are the centers around its power revolves. They act as portals for magical energies to manifest themselves in the physical world. Magicka concentrates around them, penetrating inside them and growing within their souls until it breaks into existence through a spell. In reality, enchantments are simply a way to control existence and to alter its rules. Mystic use their supernatural energy to produce spells to weave a net around the very essence of reality. The Runes are words that they whisper to the soul of the world to channel their energies better. Each wizard has their own formula to modify existence. They create their spells using whatever knowledge and means they have available; therefore, the execution of magic may vary considerably from one person to the next.
