You may want to skip this chapter if you want just the story. But for those interested in the Magic System of this world, read on.
Magic is determined by Nature:
-Light-
Water
Nature
Healing
-Dark-
Lightning
Ice
Poison
The Middle Magics, called grey magics, can be used by either Nature and are relatively more powerful than the Base Magics.
Fire
Mind
Manipulation
Space
Each Nature Has a Main Magic which is called the Main. Healing is the Main of the Light nature and is thus considered more powerful than the other two. Lightning is the Main of Dark and is considered an omen of great skill.
John, the first Mage we meet in the story other than Alex is a Light natured Manipulation Mage. He can freely manipulate objects at will. His signature move, Golem creation is a subcategory of Manipulation magic that allows the User to create a living object out of raw material like Wood, Metal, and other things.
Lance, the young Guard Captain Alex meets at the gate is another Light Natured Mage that uses Nature Magic. He can enhance living creatures. His family, The Ocelots, are very popular horse breeders because they use their magic to enhance horses from birth to be stronger, faster, and smarter. His magic extends to humans as well.
