The so-called First and Second Magic are only known by a limited few in the Church.

I am confused by this, is this just referring to the church or was this supposed to represent the grand sum of all the knowledge of the world on the subject? And what's up with their supposedly being no more to discover but in Complete Material 3 it was like "there's always a chance!"

Oh hey I didn't even notice he gave a total for Araya but NOT Alba, what?

America confirmed yet again for being The Church's bitch

I'd say just plain living in JESUS POWER is enough to make us Churchie Super Twinks.

The Middle East is mentioned as "the Middle East", though.
And it's almost certainly China. Even arai thought it was China. If you go to the Magic - Spells section of Fuyuki he wrote up a whole spiel on it under the China heading.

In the UK "the continent" is indeed mainland Europe but yeah it makes no sense for this.

Well, maybe it does, it could refer to the Sea of Astray? Going by the context of the sentence it probably means the Middle East, even though that's not a continent.

Just out of curiosity, is there any reason that "the continent" couldn't refer to sub-Saharan Africa? Because Eastern mumbo jumbo seems to do pretty well with western magecraft. And jungle bogey might be something weird. Alternatively, India?

It doesn't even show up on Google. Ghost idiom.

Nick: Neither do I.

Nick 2: Then why say that?

Nick: That is a good question.

Actually, could you go ahead and give me the American cultural equivalent of "throw it in your bagpipe"? Because I have no idea what that means.

I am way to tired to make a quip to that.

So....pick one out of the hat and well, I don't know, throw it in your bagpipe or whatever your cultural equitant is.

"We won the war", "That's what she said", "Compared to whom?", "We won the war" and "Insert snarky stupid response that'll get a stupid snarky that I'm to lazy to come up with"

Oh well, until then it's that beloved fanon and plotbunny material that we the fans can go nuts with.

Nah, the entire country is a lawless hellhole inhabited by 300 million Sancraid Phahns.

^Your Average American Magi.

^- UP x2 -
It's either the lateness of the night, the exhaustion I've had from work, the ibuprofen I took, or the Llama riding a giant asparagus wearing a pink top hat on the other side of the couch, but I can't tell if you're playing around (I assume), being serious, or something-ing something.

(I have nothing to add or say here. I really don't. So, you all get Llamas riding a giant asapargus wearing a pink top hat. I hope you don't mind the madness, I don't know where it's coming from, I feel loopy tonight)

Nah, they probably do the Master and apprentice route, figuring there doesn't seem to be all too much of that here in the nasu-verse. This could be a cool experience, seeing the world of magic and supernatural from a totally different view. Maybe a swap of how the European mage's association view things I think. Instead of a focus on genetics and the like, it's more of being your own man and bringing yourself up and making yourself strong, not being born strong. The Waver and the Marisa Kirasame style.

Yea, I beatya most are drunk. But I do assume they won't be around all to long. Being drunk off your kister and experimenting with the prime elements don't end well I'd assume.
Assume at least.

Any Sacrificial Altars involved with the occasional Hypnotized Slave Labor/Test Subjects?

Maybe instead of a community structure, we have a collective with a similar interest of staying hidden, we don't tolerate each other because fuck that. WE ALL ARE THE MASTER RACE

And I just single handedly described American Mages people. Unless I forgot to mention how we do alot of our Magecraft intoxicated.

I always wonder about it, but is there a mage organization in the Americas? If I don't know, I just never looked hard enough I guess
