The Magic System
At first there were only Mages.
They used pure mana in immeasurable amounts to bend the reality to their wills.
As long as they had mana, they could do anything!
But they needed to concentrate hard to even light a small candle and the smallest disruption could destroy their focus and make their attempt fail.
Thus the Spellusers were born.
Using a short combination of words as a starting point, one could with a bit of training unconsciously create crude magic constructs to considerably ease their attempt to change the world.
The most common spells are ones like [Fireball] or [Ice Spike], each spread wide amongst the magic combatants, but the most used spells are [Wash], [Dry], [Heat] and such spells which were easy enough to handle for almost everybody with enough mana to cast them.
Then came the point where all magic users parted.
The first ones added incantations to their spells to change their effects and combining them to create endless new spells which were much more powerfull. Those were called Wiz, as they needed enough wisdom to find the right words.
The Wiz then again made two parties, one with supreme mana control and one with huge mana reserves.
The ones able to control the flow of mana used incantations with higher rankings and combine them to create strong effects while the ones with supreme mana reserves just overloaded the incantations with power to increase their effects.
As an example:
While one incantation user would combine
[Blossom and burn the world][Flame Flower Field]
(or
[Spread out and enlighten the world with your grace][Flame Flower Field]
as the form of the incantation always depends on the user, not on the spell used)
to first create a small field of fiery flowers around him and then either
[Swirl around me and burn my enemies][Flame petal Storm]
as an attack or
[Swirl around me and protect me from my enemies][Flame Petal Storm]
to defend oneself to create a strong combo and define what kind of spell they wanted through longer and more complicated incantations,
Another incantation user would just use
[Create a pillar of heat and burn everything around][Fire Pillar]
with far more mana to create a rather simple but not less powerful effect.
The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
The second ones drew the magic construct they wanted to use first and then filled it with mana to make it show its effects. Those were called Ard, as everything they created looked like art.
The Ard also then again split in two parties, one drawing their construct in many layers and creating them from stone to make them last forever and the other ones quickly drawing them with mana in the air or on a scroll to create a one time use item.
And then there were some that combined them, using a combination of both to create incomparable complex magic constructs, larger than castles, drawing energy from thousands and powerful enough to lay a country in ashes with only a few sentences spoken by the creator if it all, the one called Wizard.
In the recent days only few have reached a status where one could be called Wizard, in the whole dimension it could be counted on both hands how many there were (if you had 5 fingers on every hand like any normal humanoid creature), and all those Wizards were employed by countries to stay at strategically important places and protect them with their presence as nobody wanted to anger a Wizard by attacking him.
There were also stories of long forgotten countries where people used mana in a completely different ways. They focused it within their bodies to make them extremely strong and sturdy, but these days nobody knew anything anymore about those techniques and few try to find more about them.

Yay, finally I got something out again.
As I stated in my description I will only write when I feel like it and I just didnt want to until now
I know this chapter is short...or is it even a chapter?
Anyway, this is to explain magic for now, as “I” will use magic in the future chapters (which are already in my head, just not written down) so I needed such a description
there will probably be some more chapters soon, as right now are HOLIDAYS and I dont have much else to do (only Just Cause 3 and my usual reading stuff), but dont be sad if it takes a while!
@Tonyalex13: I dont plan to make this “mature” as I personally dont like to read sexual scenes and usually just skip them, but there will be some hints on what happens between the lines, even if “I” will never fall in love for real (so no romance tag)
