* AllAccessibleMagic: An inborn talent for magic is unnecessary to use it and it is uncertain whether such inborn talent even really exists. In the right side of the Arkenvali Academy of magic, some people speak of such a split, between "Lambents" and "Mundanes" and use it to discriminate against the "Mundanes", but even they acknowledge that Mundanes "can learn magic".
