VIII - Sillion es Diestra Arual
In the past, magical abilities were available only to a very narrow circle of people:
— Certain peoples or followers of specific beliefs.
— Those who used magical energy not directly, but for example through special items.
The eldest son of Saikam, Sillion, dreamed of learning magic from childhood and during his youth discovered that a certain portion of ordinary mortals carried a magical gift within them, and he became the first to be able to unlock it in himself. Subsequently, he would create his own method of teaching magic and open many educational institutions tied to it. Over the following centuries, other graduates of these schools would spread this knowledge first across the entire continent and then to the rest of the world. For this reason, King Sillion is considered the father of magic in Nidzikonia.
Sillion was a very powerful wizard and possessed enough destructive power to deal with any external enemy, but he himself was not interested in conquests. Due to the combination of these two factors, Margel did not know war throughout the entire long reign of its wizard-king. He used his gift so that nature would be more favorable to his subjects, so that they could gather more bountiful harvests and be protected from natural disasters, and he helped them in construction and many other peaceful pursuits.
Sillion lived for 186 years, and during that period he was revered in the kingdom almost like a god, although he himself refused such titles. Unlike his father, he appeared in public often. He could show up in some remote village, talk with the working folk, learn what troubled them, and solve that problem.
In narrower historical circles, there is a version according to which Sillion was in bad standing with the Church of Arcelia, but not because of his discoveries in the field of magic, but a personal matter — allegedly he created a wife for himself. Such an act in itself was considered an unacceptable playing at god, but even worse than that was the fact that he used strands of Aconia's hair he had obtained as the basis for his spell. This theory is called into question due to the fact that no conflicts between the kingdom and the Church of Arcelia are documented for this historical period, but particularly zealous proponents of this version claim that this is because Sillion was too powerful. Other researchers claim that even if this story were true, Sillion's wife was an ordinary woman, and as a result the event was simply forgotten.
Book effect: +100% to SM or HP +5.
