== Magic ==

Magic is woven into Carcer.

It flows through the world along great '''ley lines''', gathers in places of power and manifests differently across the lands and peoples of the world.

There is no single understanding of magic shared by every culture.

The ancient Forsworn were among the first to systematically study and master its forces. The Dworn developed traditions of runes, craftsmanship and magic drawn from earth and metal. Other peoples developed their own practices, beliefs and names for the forces they encountered.

Modern scholars have spent generations attempting to classify magic, yet disagreement remains common. What one culture considers a fundamental force of nature, another may understand as the work of spirits, gods, ancestors or something else entirely.

Even today, new discoveries occasionally challenge things scholars believed had been understood for thousands of years.
