Magic in Viesse tends to be complicated, in the sense of different types of it don't stay strictly in their area and tend to blend in with others. If someone's able to perform fire magic for example, they can cast a fire spell that's more illusory. This doesn't mean they're able to cast illlusion spells, though; they're only able to cast that particular spell because it involves fire.

Well, this applies if you're a mage.

Mages are only able to perform One (1) type of magic. It's rare for a mage to have anything in the "forbidden" field, but it's possible as well as rather unfortunate. Of course, mages can't exactly choose their type of magic, nor can they ever hope to be as powerful as the witch. Who would ever want to be a witch, though?

Witches are extremely versatile, are able to cast any spell of any type, and are naturally powerful. While they almost always have some type of forbidden magic as their "best" area of magic. Viessans are terrified of witches, to the point where any found out to be (or even accused of being) a witch have an almost certain chance of being put to death.

If a witch were to put a spell seal on a mage, themselves, or even another witch, there are currently three ways to break the seal: 1. The witch that cast it reverses it (easier, since spell seals tend to be personalized.) -Note: For witches that did it to themselves, this is the fastest option. 2. Get another witch to reverse it (takes more time, probably due to seal varieties) 3. A god nullifies its effects.

**IMPORTANT NOTE: Most if not all of Viesse's gods are dead, so the last option is virtually impossible. Records of it are the only reason it exists.
