Chapter 75
When talking about E’er manipulation, those ignorant tend to believe it is all powerful. The first recorded Wizards were Photem, a God, and Elesis, a Halve, and the Laws of E’er have dramatically expanded since that time.
In this instance, I will go over three elements. Earth, Fire, and Water.
If someone were to call them ’simple’, more than a few experienced Wizards would vomit blood on the spot, myself included.
To manipulate Earth, an individual would need to study the many different soils, stones, and rock formations that exist. Manipulating compressed dirt would be the most basic of spells, and diamond would be the most complex. Intelligence would dictate how much weight the individual can influence. Geomancers excel at building cities and reshaping terrain.
To manipulate Fire, an individual would need to study Thermal Laws, and understand the E’er-energy-heat equations required to ignite E’er. A flame would be the most basic of spells, and Solar Epitaph the most complex. Intelligence would dictate the heat of the flames produced. Naturally, there is a limit: fire cannot go above 6000ºY, and there’s only two recorded instances where that temperature has been reached by a spell. E’er replaces oxygen and also acts as fuel. Pyromancers excel at killing and generating thermal energy.
To manipulate Water, an individual would need to study hydrodynamics and understand the fluid-E’er equations. That is, to transform E’er into Water or other fluids the individual wishes to manipulate. A gentle stream would be the most basic spell, and floods would be the most complex. Intelligence would dictate water pressure. After a set period of time, the length of which depends on Intelligence, the liquid would transform back to E’er. Because of this, Water Weavers are unable to assist during droughts, but are incredibly helpful during heat waves and eroding hard materials.
21st day of the third month. Fifth week of spring. 1980. Yiama’s Era.
We had reached the 43rd floor, an expansive field of tall grass and sporadic trees, where monsters were in the 500 to 520 level range. Silence reigned the party as we tried to cope with reality.
I looked around, appraising everyone for the tenth time to check if my eyes weren’t deceiving me.
