List of magic usable
Thaumaturgy:
Otherwise known as the Denial of Oblivion, this form of magic is the most well known throughout Worldsea (i.e. the fantasy world where Dusk and Steel is based). Many tales have been sung where powerful mages of yore managed to change the world for the better or worse (in the words of any minstrel, "feats which only the gods can do"). As its nickname suggests, thaumaturgy is all about creating something out of nothing. While there are plenty of street magicians plying their trade, they are only capable of pulling the rabbit out of the hole (i.e. a metaphor referring to the kind of stuff we're used to seeing in magic shows rather than the Harry Potter movies). Indeed, whispers are always afoot where individuals exist in the same manner as heroes and monsters of the past.
Metallurgy:
While lesser known than thaumaturgy, metallurgy is nevertheless a potent form of power nowhere inferior. If thaumaturgy is all about creation, then metallurgy is all about reinforcing what is already there. As its namesake suggests, metal is without a doubt the best substance upon which metallurgy can be used. Also known as the Acceptance of Creation.
Elegy:
Virtually nothing is known about this final form of magic. At best, scholars could only speculate via archaeological findings gleaned from ancient ruins. Archaeology, however, is a risky business at best and a suicide mission at worst. This is because the land mass of Worldsea is far outweighed by the surrounding waters. Nevertheless, the human thirst for knowledge has always driven individuals to make decisions befitting of a madman. Perhaps this is why slavery is so rampant, for only the Nygros possess the stamina and endurance to perform such a dangerous task.
A/N: Need to sign off. It's now nearing 1am here in Singapore, I still need to work myself to death tomorrow. Before I end this, please allow me the pleasure to You-spam the video below.
