Techniques of Far-Seeing


While it may have been the undoing of a legendary maga, it has proved the origin point for all advanced studies of intellego since. Cynthea raised intellego from a system of purely localized investigation into an independent discipline capable of "catching the dove in flight and the thought in mind."


Mare Argentum

Tea too hot? Inland sea turning to blood? Look no further for solutions, the maga Iracundia has got your back.


Viscus vim

The infamous crudity of the garish figures and illuminations notwithstanding, this is an arid tome: “The most boring waste of time conceived by magus,” as it is described in the inaugural volume of Morgensterni.


Caudex lamminæ glaciei

Mostly known for the spells and mentem theory that concern themselves with strengthening the ice and protecting the dreamer from the deeps, its striking approach has relegated it to the second or third tier of mentem texts, along with Fons indolis or Rationis mentis.


Rei nefabricati

Rei nefabricati was written by Jotham Sebasticook, filius Cotswold Sebasticook, scholae Touccio. Two "originals" exist, bound in stamped white cow hide, with brass studs at corners and cover.


Lux umbrarum

Teaching text written to incorporate lessons in Cholæic vocabulary and grammar with basic magical instruction; as such regarded throughout the Order as the most useful.


Elementi schemæ tracti operibus Spingellis et Cos

By now accepted as an intermediate apprentice text throughout the Order, taught after the Black Book or Zecharrias; eschews integritas of Cholæic for judicious use of vernacular as means of reconciling Savacion’s paradox.


Famae Facinus

famae facinus (reports of infamy)
by Caleth (nee Tenellus) scholae Cristofer, filia Perfidius scholae Savacion.


de calamitas et adeifico

de calamitas et aedifico (of loss and creation)
by Caligatus filius Lagopus


Lucerna et tintinnabulum

A harmless text musing on perception. Or a thinly veiled Eleanorian manifesto.


ad voco draconis

ad voco draconis

by Testudo Tesselata (L107) filia Chalybs (L77)

Local knowledge and first hand accounts of dragons.


Speculum pro ducibus

Reputation as a “puzzle book” keeps Speculum from joining Artificia videndi clari as a definitive essentialist text.


Primo Vere

Text on herbam by Aegidius. Phantom for the Nemus Animae lexicon game.


Ususfructus

A sketchy guide to the etiquette and politics of a dizzying array of færie courts, in the context of negotiating for vis and safe passage through regio.


Ab esse ad posse

A comprehensive text on the five substances for the Lexicon Game.


Id videram

A phantom text on the history of Ad Vim, with spells.


Poculum meloris simplex

What a spare little book this is! Then, what else would one expect from a stone such as Saxeus? A subtly stinging rebuke of plenilunial elementalism, you say? Read on!


The end of the first quarter.

Well, first third, really. But I didn’t want to call it the half-time report. But damn the band is taking a long, long time to clear the field. Up With People just goes on forever, don’t it.


Circli et nimbi

A moderately comprehensive phantom text on Lemmish theory for non-Lemmites.
