The mage
Traditionally, a mage is defined as a person who, through whatever means, has the ability to use magic. As for what magic is, that definition is as broad and diverse as the people and creatures who practice it. Magic can be good or evil, constructive or destructive, functional or useless. Likewise, the type of magic used, as well as the way it is used, determines its practitioner.
But what about the mage himself? What does a mage do? What is his/her purpose in the world? Are they just people who use magic? Or are they something more?
This novel details the lives of four special children as they learn the art of magecraft. Join them as they make their way through the World As We Know It, come across people, places and creatures wonderful and terrible, hone their skill at magic and, ultimately, learn what it means to be a mage.
