Magik and Spells

In the place the Group of the Morning Sun resides, magik is prominent. Similar to the well-known magic, the main difference is its behavior, which is its own, as though it were its own creature. It can turn on wielders, and it can form spells without assistance. Untamed magik is usually called wild magik. Certain cats of the world have worked out how to use magik to form spells, the name for the directed magik in a particular use.

Magik in Common Use
Magik is indirectly referenced throughout the books in Shades of Light. Usually, it's mentioned to exist around the Orb of Klhre'Grun and is used as a part of the Embodiments of the Forest's powers that rise as the books continue.

The most common uses of controlled magik in the world is:

- The Orb of Klhre'Grun's bindings and spirit-spells

- The Scroll Cavern's bindings to keep the Scrolls contained and preserved

- The magik used to switch ghosts between worlds

The usage of wild magik is more common, and often found:

- In the Embodiments of the Forest + the Forest itself

- In the spells that keep the Shaded in existence

- In the powers used by the Spirits of Before

- In self-trained magik-users out in the world

- In the Shaded's corrupter/"ruler"

Controlled Magik
Originally no magik was controlled, as is anything that begins. The Spirits of Before started the taming and chaining of it, although wild magik is still more prominent. The controlled magik has more limitations than the wild magik. Such limitations include: The controlled magik is mostly used for bindings and, sometimes, blessings.
 * No speech regarding the dead
 * No harm-inducing spells
 * And a lack of corruption spells

Wild Magik
The magik existing that created the very world the Group lives in. Parts of it were tamed and turned into the controlled magik. This was done out of fear of the power that the wild magik had. Wild magik is still almost all the magik in the world, and can be used for: Wild magik is powerful, and therefore takes a very strong-willed creature to use it. Very few exist, which is why it is rarely mentioned. The magik almost is an entity of its own, seeking to use the spells against the caster or would-be controller.
 * Corruption spells
 * Spells to speak with the dead
 * Spells to seal spirits
 * Spells of destruction
 * Spells that influence the mood or ideas of the target
 * And spells that can allow sight into other places and/or dimensions
