Magic

Magic is a mysterious anomaly granting various species a number of unique, conjurable abilities. How exactly it works is unknown, just that it does, and that some people are capable of using it, and others are never able to figure it out. 
==History==
Magic was little more than a myth in the Old World, and to this day it is still not found there in any capacity, so when the Voldranians arrived in Voldrania little thought was given to it. The first time the Voldranians encountered magic was while watching the Lirun, who arrived alongside them and were capable of powerful mysticism. In 58 AE, when Undek Mag discovered the Wand of Wishes and used it during the Heran Revolutions, Humans discovered that they too were capable of using Magic, and a lot of effort was put into researching it. The only organization that ever had any success was the Jaden of Tripoly, who were able to mimic the Magic used by the Lirun to a lesser degree.
But after the Fall of Voldrania the Voldranians arrived in New Voldrania, where they discovered that magic was far more widespread than they ever could have imagined. While still relatively rare, its existence was commonly accepted, and there were no fewer than three universities that taught both magical theory and practice: The Mages' College in Llysos, the College of Unnatural and Supernatural Arts in Krolesk, and the Dravii Academy of the Arcane in Skylyn. On top of that, magic was deep-rooted in the history of these nations as well as the history of the Hisuuani Caliphate and Ralkeis. Dalverad was a city-state located in what would become Varrenholm that had one of the largest populations of magic users in the world. The Testificates of New Voldrania also possessed their own unique form of magic, and are considered to be the best enchanters in the world because of it.
The prevalence of magic in New Voldrania led to theories that something about its geography and energies in the air might have made magic easier to use, whereas magic is impossible in the Old World, and extremely difficult in Voldrania. 
==Types==
There are numerous different types of magic, each with their own unique methods of use and practice. It is uncommon that one can take the skills they have learned in one type of magic and apply them to another: each style is completely different from any other. Many of the most significant types of magic are:
*Spell Magic
*Dark Magic
*Mysticism
*Enchanting
*Barakih
*Shiri
*Hardlight
*Teleportation
