Dear Readers, to provide some insight into the beliefs and mystical talents of the Lord of Fire and his people - the magic system of The Fire Chronicles - here is a summary... GAIAN PHILOSOPHY and ELEMENTAL MAGIC “Existence has no beginning, and the notion of an ‘end’ is purely relative. Consider this phenomenon, Existence, as a series of interdimensional cycles, an ebb and flow of destruction and regeneration that can sometimes – not always – be altered by our choices. Each Realm is governed by a different set of laws, yet all are interconnected by the Eternal Flame and the inexorable Thread of Fate. The question has ever been: How do each of us find meaningful – that is to say, higher – purpose in the cycle into which we are born? Without a doubt, we must use our powers wisely.” (ext. ‘Handbook of the High Arts’ by Grand Master Churian.) The Forces of Nature Perception and Control (possessed in some measure by all Gaians, these skills require constant training and practise). Of… Material Forces, ie., Wind, Water, Earth Of… Material and Ethereal, ie., Emotions, Virtues Of… Supreme Forces, ie., The Fires: (only ever attained by dragons and the Lord of Fire) The Fire of Destruction The Fire of Love The Fire of Despair The Fire of Hope and Healing The Fire of Rage and Anger
