>>6296460Wise words in your precedent post, as for the Nephilim, let us say that the Old Testament is less known than the new in the Catholic church (even today) at least by laity. In fact a lot of French christians, even today are impressed by the fascination of the Protestants (like the Americans) with the Old Testament. I do not think that a man like Charles, who of course knows his legends but is illiterate, will equal these adventurers with giants, plus he saw some and some were barely his size.
>>6296621>>6296811You were interested in these guilds, and this notion that they were made to deal with some people of unfathomable, and probably heretical strength. Whatever, this did not exist in France so it was probably foreign crap. But still, you had to ask.
-And what about the Mage's Guild ? Do those mages are "touched by fate" too ?
The ancient master at arms shook his head and explained.
-No, no, some are but most are not. Magic is determined by magical abilities. some races, like elves, are completely magical, all of them can use magic. Others like dwarves are incapable of it. And for some, like men, they have some individuals capable of it, one in five hundred perhaps. And these become mages. Of course I am talking about mages and sorcerers and all those who use different kinds of magic, divine magic is another thing entirely. But some mages become like adventurers and their power grow, even if they are not touched by fate. Others are touched by fate too. Whatever, this Guild encompasses all the magic activities of the Empire and several neighboring countries.
-It is even in other lands ?
-Yes, it is a way to control magic, for us. And it's owners. Ensure that those who oppose us have only primitive shamans while keeping some controls on masters of the Arcane. Of course some would say that the guild took too much power and that they serve only themselves now. It is why their power should be checked by other administrations.
You agreed.
-We cannet be ruled by disciples of satan !
-I do not know about this satan, but by madmen, surely not. All mages become a bit mad or megalomaniac after tempering too much with reality. Chronomancers are the worst. I mean, if we take into account the non evil forms of magic.
You had to correct him, he perhaps was wise but he was a pagan.
-There are not good pagan witches and evil pagan witches, they are all evil.
-To each is opinion, Lord Charles, but with our Majesty part of this organisation, I would advise you to remain prudent.
-I was not daring to talk ill of her Majesty of course, just of those who led her astray.
