Misera has three Moons, and most of the time at least one can be seen, if the sky is clear. We call them Gold, Fuchsia and Cyan. Cyan is mysterious, and my people always connect it to emotions and feelings. The bloody glow of Fuchsia is ominous to many, but the moon itself represents flesh and bone in any synthesis magic. Gold is the smallest moon, but its glow is always warming. Gold represents qualities and quantities in any concentration spells.
The name “concentration spells” was given for a reason. Such spells require prolonged concentration on six concepts at the same time. The Three Moons are the pillars of every spell in synthesis magic. Their potential positions in one of the twelve angles give three concepts out of six. Another three are usually descriptive of what the spell is used for, and are connected to each moon’s domain.
When the structure of the spell is known, you are to keep all six concepts in mind at the same time. At this point, you need some base material – usually a liquid and a powder, combined. Base material, given form, is submerged into the liquid and then driven back to the surface, whilst the shaper concentrates on six concepts all at once. If everything is done correctly, the desired material is synthesised. But I digress. This is a topic I might go on about forever.
Masters of this art are able to shape themselves like the materials they concentrate on, free to emerge from the liquid, born anew. I am Keelana, the shapeshifter and your humble servant, and this is my plea.
