The World of Teréth End - Spells & Magic

"The wizards gathered in a circle, conferring about the magnificent piece.  It had the head of an ass, the tail of of a serpent, its forward legs were canine, its hind legs were the fins of some large fish, and the torso remained of a young woman.  More wonderful still, it breathed."

Book of Dragum Ild'a

[way (control) (establish) (summon, dominate)]

Dragum Ild'a (ihl DRAH) may be the most important facet of weaving magic, for at fundamental level it regulates and governs the flow of the Chaos, imposing law in a realm where there is none naturally.  Additionally, the Way of Ild'a is sometimes coupled with the philosophy that good can only result from imposed order and that flow of nature is entropic.

At its heart, Ild'a is the Way of control and order.  The study of the Dragum Ild'a is based on the premise that without control, magic is unfettered, aimless and dangerous.  Practitioners and scholars of the Way are often studious magicians, cognizant of the (imagined?) perils that await the careless investigator of the Chaos.  Whereas some might argue that the life-death cycles of nature are a positive state, the Ild'an philosophy is that eternal cycles of birth and death are pointless, and that nothing will come of such chaotic cycles.  The argument continues that only if mankind imposes order on the Chaos, can a positive outcome result.

In some respects, all spells are the result of Dragum Ild'a because the very nature spell casting involves exerting control over Chaos to reach a desired effect. This viewpoint is short-sighted however, because Dragum Ild'a does not only concern itself with the control of magic, but with the control and order of all things, magical and non-magical.
