Editing Forsaken History (section)

=== The Price of Power ===

Magic runs in the blood of the Forsaken. It is not learned, but remembered, a legacy that once made them kin to the Scions, and still binds them to the same divine essence that shaped the first spell ever cast. But unlike their estranged cousins, the Forsaken do not inherit power with reverence. They seize it with bloodied hands.

To the Forsaken, magic is survival. It is vengeance. It is defiance, and sometimes, it is corruption.

All Forsaken begin with an intuitive grasp of magic. Even those who do not train formally can sense a spell's shape, recognise ambient aether, or manipulate raw essence in ways that seem instinctive. Their deep connection to magic is a lingering echo of their shared origin.

But where Scions cast magic with caution and duty, the Forsaken wield it like a blade. They do not fear forbidden knowledge. They chase it.
