Books of Magic

## The Prophecy

All of the six beginner books of magic have a poem at the beginning of the book, and it’s the same for each of them, with the exception of the final book. It goes like this:

*One for the body, bones and skin,*

*One for the spirit, its spectral kin,*

*One for the mind, thoughts and dreams,*

*One for the world, from dirt to streams,*

*One for all space, wide and vast,*

*One for all time, future and past.*

*Seven from six, the rest unearthed.*

*One saves all, if proved their worth.*

The poem seems to be, at least to Damian, a prophecy, that the one who masters all magic will save the world. However, this seems to be more of a retelling of the past, since it’s stated in book one that the human who mastered all seven forms of magic saved the world by pushing the Old Ones out of our world and stopping humans from ever learning it. Even further, all the advanced copies of the books of magic did not survive when Old One's magic left this world, which suggests that the books may even have been burned.

The only spell known to be in the advanced magic books is the spell *Change Orbit*, which could kill everyone if someone wanted to.

Another spell is *Create* *Avalonian Portal: These are instructions to open a dimensional portal, and we invite those with great skill to travel to the dimension of the Avalonians and present themselves to our Queen. No humans allowed.*

Possible spell? *Gen urre’otre platrexe avalon (creates a dimensional portal to far away Avalon)*

Apparently, according to Merlin (the older version of Cyrus and the Timeless One Emrys), this piece of poetry was made by Cyrus so certain people who believed that he/she was the chosen one, one being Damian will follow a path Cyrus/Emrys wants. Cyrus put this poem in the first page of every book of (beginner) magic was made.

## *The Magic of Destruction, and Its Many Uses (Elemental Magic)*

Old One: D'vale

Feeling: Hot

Spells:

* *Canterbury’s Flash: Ignite the air before you, creating a dazzling light to momentarily blind your foes. Gen rexelum*

Destruction Magic uses elemental powers such as Fire or Lightning. This book was made by a magician named Cedric right before magic was gone to prevent the Old Ones from returning. Known users are the Chads, Rachel, and the Old One D'Vale. You could also attach the Magic to various weapons such as bows or hammers. Destruction Magic is also useless to the Old One Ketas but is very useful in other situations. Backbinder’s Bolt of Magical Energy, Earthquake, and Canterbury's Flash is also some examples of Destruction Magic. The book was discovered in the U.S. Later on, when Fort learned the magic of Creation, he gave all his Elemental (Destruction magic's true name) Magic knowledge to Rachel, to pull off his plan to free the chaos from being controlled.

Healing Magic recreates or destroys bodies. It is the first Magic Fort studied and one of the best users of Healing Magic in Oppenheimer School is Jia. The Old One D'Hea created Dragons and mainly appeared in The Last Dragon. Although it was murdered by the Old Ones, D’Hea is very strong. Some examples of Healing Magic are Heal Minor Wounds, Etheral Spirit, Heal Heavy Wounds, Cure Disease, and Cause Disease. Like Destruction Magic, Healing can be found in magical weapons such as staffs. The book was also first discovered in China. Later on, when Forsythe learned the magic of Creation, he gave all his Corporeal (Healing magic's true name) Magic knowledge to Jia to pull off his plan to free the chaos from being controlled.

## *The Magic of Cause and Effect (Time Magic)*

Old One: Cyrus/ Emrys/ Merlin

Feeling: Unknown

Spells:

* *Stop Time*
* *Slow Down Time*
* *Speed Up Time*
* *Send Objects Into the Future*
* *See Future*
* *Banish From Time*
* *Travel Through Time*

This book of magic was created by future Emrys/Merlin/ before magic was gone for a millennium so his siblings wouldn't be able to return. Time Magic later on was first discovered in UK and was mainly used in the Carmarthen Academy at the UK. Time Magic is has many abilities such as freezing time, seeing the future, and time traveling. Emrys, master of Time can use all Time Magic and was known as the Timeless One. Emrys was also Cyrus in the past and Merlin in the future. Eventually Cyrus lost his power by Rachel’s Excalibur and gained it back when Fort cast a new spell of Creation after bargaining with the Timeless One. Though in the end of the Future King, the book of time was lost, to which Sierra and Damian are locating. It was found again when Cyrus brought them into the future where Damian found the books. Later on, when Forsythe learned the magic of Creation, he gave all his Time Magic knowledge to his friend, Ellora to pull off his plan to free the chaos from being controlled. Time Magic is vulnerable to Mind Magic because not even a Time Magician can move faster than thought.

## *The Magic of Extrasensory Perception, and The Art of Mind Reading (Mind Magic)*

Old One: Ketas

Feeling: unknown

Spells:

* *Detect Mind: Allows the user to detect where a presence is by detecting the mind*
* *Read Mind*
* *Create Illusion: By tricking the senses, one can create a scene, tricking them into feeling the scene when there’s really nothing there but their ordinary life.*
* *Mind Blast*
* Sleep Inducement
* Memory Wipe

Mind Magic also known as telepathy magic was kept hidden underneath Oppenheimer School. It was presumed burned, but Damian also used it. Fort’s friend Sierra is one of the main users. Spells known are Mind Blast were also used by Sierra in the flashbacks. The Old One of Mind, Ketas, attacked the First Oppenheimer School and also used various Mind Spells. The book was discovered in Brazil. Later on, when Forsythe learned the magic of Creation, he gave all his Mind Magic knowledge to his friend, Sierra, to pull off his plan to free the Chaos from being controlled. Note that Corporeal Magic is painful to beings possessed by Mind Magic.

## *The Magic of Summoning and Creating Gateways to Other Realities (Space Magic)*

Old one: Ni'nev

Feeling: Itchy

Known Spells:

* *Teleport Within the Same Plane: When an object must pass between nonadjacent spaces, yet still within the same reality/timeline, a teleportation circle can be opened, connecting those two spaces. Though true magicians know that space is a false equivalency, and everything lies within our reach, to convince the cosmos of this, one must first bring to mind one's destination location and merge it to your starting point. Please note, distance can only be traversed when the mind accepts that reality is naught but a figment of our imagination, and what we see as separated can never truly be. (Continues on about that for a few more paragraphs that Fort skips and we never get to see) A portal shall open, bridging the distance like a termite eats through wood, and* remain *open until such time that the magician desires it to no longer exist. Please do not leave your various teleportation circles open as it may create hazards to indigenous life. Gen urre’plat*

* *Restore Dimensional Portal: If in such a time a previously created portal between different dimensions needs to be Restored, the careful magic user may return to an exact previous location by re-creating, instead of creating anew, a dimensional portal. By doing so . . . Gen urre’otre platrexe phor*

* *Create Dimensional Portal: (possible spell: gen urre’otre platrexe)*
* *Teleport Self Within the Same Plane: (possible spell: Solip plat (I go to [insert destination in mind]), used by Damian, described as disappearing in a flash of green light, could be portal, could not be.)*
* *Change Orbit*: *Incantation unknown.*

Summoning Magic was originally also kept hidden under Oppenheimer School. It was stolen by Fort in the Last Dragon. The Old One of Space, Ni'Nev was never seen, although we know that she contained many spaces, not just one. Damian also used to learn Summoning Magic as well as Fort. The basic teleportation spells have been mastered by Fort too. The book was discovered in France. Later on, when Forsythe learned the magic of Creation, he gave all his Space Magic knowledge to his ex-friend, Gabriel to pull off his plan to free the chaos from being controlled.

## *The Forbidden Art of Spirit Magic ( Spirit Magic )*

Old one: Q'baos

Feeling: Powerful

Spells:

* Create Devotion in a Living Creature: Be warned—this spell will ensure loyal obedience to any command of the spellcaster but has been shown to affect the temperament of the spellcaster the more it’s used. Spirit magic as a whole is intricately ties to the force of magic itself, and given what was hidden there, the user should be taking the utmost care whenever attempting any Spirit spells—(not finished). Gen ly’la
* Reform the Spirit of a Living Creature
* Remove Bad Impulses

Spirit Magic was hidden by the Faerie Queen and she bargained it to Fort and his friends in exchange for defeating the Timeless One. Spirit Magic can control people and was used by William in the Future King to steal someone’s spirit, and then use it to create a form made of pure spirit. The Book of Spirit was also lost like the Book of Time but was both found by the government of the U.K. It was eventually burned by Damian after he mastered both books. The Old One of Spirit Magic, Q’Baos also used Spirit Magic to control dwarves. Later on, when Forsythe learned the magic of Creation, he gave all his Spirit Magic knowledge to his pet dragon Ember, to pull off his plan to free the chaos from being controlled.

## *The Dragon Dictionary (Creation Magic)*

Color: White

Spells:

* All of the chaos magic (every word in the magical language)

This book was made a thousand years ago after all the beginner books (the ones that were left after magic was gone). It contained all the spell words of the language of chaos after the Old Ones took control of that chaos. The words were in order based on the word's power. This book was thought to be a Dragon Dictionary for Forsythe so that he could communicate with his newly born dragon, Ember. When all 6 types of magic were combined, it would form a 7th, Creation magic. Creation had a white light and could only be used when the wielder was chosen by magic itself. This can happen when someone with a good heart comes in contact with the book and thus is able to access all of the chaos.
