I agree. I also suspect that this balance will be what allows Galen and his friends to overcome their powerful enemies, like Meldorath and the Emperor of Lullabies, who might focus on only one of the three types of power.

I agree with this. I think the world focuses more on magic than on technological advancement, although the sciences do still have their place in the common culture of Voulhire's population.Sou Hi wrote: ↑05 Oct 2020, 03:37 It looks to me that the author is leaning towards the prowess of magic. Aside from Virko, the other cities are not very familiar with science. All the powerful characters are more or less using magic: Meldorath, Demetrius, the Church of Destinism, the Mianoran, Virko's demons, Folcro, Marshus, the Chalethirian knights, the Joshuan, the Emperor. The more I read the more dominant magic becomes in the books.

Yes, the combination of science and magic (without stepping into each other toes) is most intriguing.
