Oh, and for anyone who's read tLS...



I LOVED that to get in Riddle's cave they had to use blood.

And Ddore remarks on its crudeness! EXACTLY! Blood magic is old and crude and nonverbal and...it's all about smearing a rock with blood!

w00t!!

Haa... you're very cute.

It doesn't seem like blood related magic is an actual separate branch as depicted in tLS, though. I like the fact that all magic seem rather interrelated and divisions are merely there to make transfer and communication easier, much like science.

There are a few points where Ddore mentions that blood magic is an "ancient" magic. I tried to develop it with that in mind, and made it nonverbal, crude, and limited, and I love that it was used in the book. Yay!
