Fundamentals

Fundamentals is a book on magic.

Contents

• Warnings on the dangers of overusing Second Sight.<ref>Fundamentals had warned about using the sight too much, going

too deep.  I was starting to understand how that worked.  When we crossed over, our sight had adjusted.  If I peered hard enough or long enough, I suspected, I might not be able to readjust my vision to view the normal world at all.  Go too deep, exploring permutations and distant perspectives of things, and perhaps you couldn’t resurface.

I could see the problem with that.  Being in the real world, but only able to view the spirit world version of it?  It would be like going mad, except the monsters and things in the shadows could very well be real, and there could be no hope of maintaining normal relationships, when you saw normal people through the eyes of an Other. - excerpt from Subordination 6.10 </ref>

• Some basic elemental Runes.<ref>I recognized one of the symbols in the dead center, writ large, as an

elemental ward, one of the more elementary ones we’d learned from Fundamentals. - excerpt from Duress 12.5</ref>
