Glass Magic
Probably the least understood of the three branches, Mystics of Glass Magic are few and far between. This may be because it was banned after Sawu’s defeat at Mezekesh, or not many have used it since that time in history. Even so, the Alin have managed to create living weapons out of this form of magic, and the results have proved quite devastating in battle. A sister branch, Dark Glass magic, was the product of Sawu’s tampering with the Talisman that fell on the night of the death of King Fassari the Wise. This has also led to the creation of more fearsome and dangerous beasts that have been harassing the Alin in recent years.
Known units of both branches include:

Famous quotes containing the words glass and/or magic:
“Before the beginning of years
There came to the making of man
Time, with a gift of tears;
Grief, with a glass that ran;”
—A.C. (Algernon Charles)
“Both magic and religion are based strictly on mythological tradition, and they also both exist in the atmosphere of the miraculous, in a constant revelation of their wonder-working power. They both are surrounded by taboos and observances which mark off their acts from those of the profane world.”
—Bronislaw Malinowski (1884–1942)
