I'll admit I hadn't expected that response, but if that is what fulfills you, then you are correct.

No, not at all. I was thinking from a more academic perspective, such as knowledge or experience in a particular field.

It was one of my focuses back when I was still attending the Studium. There I had also specialized in aetherology, the study of arcane entities, and the magical arts.

To put it plainly, they are beings of magical origin.
I can use the example I am most familiar with: carbuncles are entities I oft employ in my own magicks. In short, they are aetherial constructs conjured forth from different types of gemstones.

Indeed it is. Arcanima does require some proficiency in mathematics, but once you understand that, even the most novice of arcanists can summon a carbuncle. How strong their magicks grow from there, however, depends entirely on how much they study and how well they apply that knowledge.

I'm sure it isn't so bad, yet there are always other branches of magic for those who prefer to put their talents elsewhere.

That depends. If you desired to learn, what would you want to use magic most for?

Nonsense. It's as fine an answer as any.
Conjury may be more to your liking then, as they focus more on the art of healing. Even I have picked up on some healing spells myself.

I agree, if I say so myself. It is a shame we cannot use so much as a single spell while here, however. Might you know why that is?

All is well. Others I have spoken to were having trouble with this, along with myself, and so I thought to seek out the reason why if possible.

[ WHAT ]

We can? With how many?

[personal profile] arcsplainist 2021-06-14 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
Certainly.
Then, for example, allow me to ask about what I have mentioned to you: what of summoning a carbuncle? Or the capability to heal?

That is good to know. You have my thanks, Sally. I confess I find it odd that I must earn back what should be rightfully mine, but I shall be grateful that it can be returned to me at all.
