Nakor's Views On Magic
Nakor's views on magic are seemingly revolutionary in the world of Midkemia. His thoughts, though mostly abstract, have impacted the perception of magic.
Nakor believes that the universe is a big expanding bubble, and that rifts are bends in the bubble. As a result of his thoughts he has split the students of Stardock into a new group, called the Blue Riders, that follow his teachings.
Nakor's beliefs have annoyed traditionalist magicians to no end, yet he has the respect and admiration of many magicians.

Famous quotes containing the words views and/or magic:
“Taught from their infancy that beauty is woman’s sceptre, the mind shapes itself to the body, and, roaming round its gilt cage, only seeks to adorn its prison. Men have various employments and pursuits which engage their attention, and give a character to the opening mind; but women, confined to one, and having their thoughts constantly directed to the most insignificant part of themselves, seldom extend their views beyond the triumph of the hour.”
—Mary Wollstonecraft (1759–1797)
“Without, the frost, the blinding snow,
The storm-wind’s moody madness—
Within, the firelight’s ruddy glow,
And childhood’s nest of gladness.
The magic words shall hold thee fast:
Thou shalt not heed the raving blast.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
