A picture of a conversation thread: mug-of-beans: "The old magic persists thanks to it's unfathomable power." No, the old magic persists because the new magic can't run the legacy spells I need to do my job, and keeps trying to install spirits I don't want or need onto my orb. aqueerkettleofish: Look, if the new magic didn't have a personality construct that kept trying to tell me which spells to use, maybe I wouldn't still be using the oid magic. wizard-council-bureaucrat: Yes it had a deep blood cost, but at least it was a one time sacrifice and not this monthly bloodletting nonsense new age magic has wizard-archivist-official: The old magic is robust enough to survive a decade of use and it's compatible with every wand, staff, scroll, and charm in our collection. The new magic stops working after three days and every spell uses proprietary runes. Our preferences, as an archiving institution, should be pretty clear. charlesoberonn: You try to get guidance for the new magic and the king's sorcerers maybe will answer you in a few days with an unhelpful suggestion to buy the newest orb. You need guidance for the old magic and a dozen retired middle-aged wizards will pop up to explain it to you rune by rune if necessary.
