[Edward's been seeing all of these different posts come up. It's obnoxious to him, but he can see the potential of being able to communicate with so many like this, so he decided to give it a try.]

It's come to my attention that there's a few people here who use "magic." From what I've seen, there's nothing like it where I come from and I have a few questions for anyone who's willing to answer.

In science, you've got different laws that everything follows. Is that the same for magic? Does some magic have laws while others don't?

Are there different fields of magic? What are they?

Where does the energy or power come from?

What makes it "magic" and not a field of science?

It is possible.
There are methods by which the conditions and parameters of the universe may be altered. However, if these methods can be understood intrinsically, then the word "magic" is a misapprehension, as the term specifically describes impossible phenomena. The one using these methods may call them "magic," but the word is inaccurate.

I see. The only problem with that being that I don't know what else I would categorize that stuff under in order to research more about it. I don't suppose you might know what it is if I described it to you?

With incomplete context, I cannot guarantee I will have the information you desire, but you may try.

To be honest, I'm not expecting you to be able to do more than maybe point me in the right direction at most.

So, first thing she does is pull out this big circular thing. She called it an astrometer, and there were cards floating around it. I don't know what she did, but there were a bunch of lights that started floating up from the ground. Then she pointed the astrometer and meter and my body started glowing. (It was really weird.)

There is not enough information presented to determine.

I guess it would be easier if you just witnessed it yourself then. I'm not sure how else to explain it. Thanks for trying though.
