Rather, that ability is confined to the Few, a small subset of people. Additionally, the various Schools of magic only allow male practitioners, further dwindling the number of possible sorcerers. Even so, those who choose to study magic are granted large amounts of power, balanced by a lack of religious acceptance and a vulnerability to chorae, small spherical antimagic talismans. There are two main types of magic used in the northern Three Seas: Gnostic and Anagogic.

The Imperial Saik - Anagogic School indentured to the Emperor of Nansur. The Mysunsai - The self-proclaimed Mercenary School, which sells its sorcerous services across the Three Seas. While it is made clear in the first book in the series that anyone who possesses the ability to wield magic is amongst the Few, it is also mentioned in book 2 (The Warrior-Prophet) that unless they are part of a School as sorcerers, they are merely wizards. To the rest of the people of Eärwa, sorcery is regarded as sacrilegious and is only tolerated because of its effectiveness in battle.

Tzetzes supplemented Homer's Iliad by a work that begins with the birth of Paris and continues the tale to the Achaeans' return home. The Homeric Allegories, in "political" verse and dedicated initially to the German-born empress Irene and then to Constantine Cotertzes, are two didactic poems, the first based on the Iliad and the second based on the Odyssey, in which Homer and the Homeric theology are set forth and then explained by means of three kinds of allegory: euhemeristic (), anagogic () and physic (). The first of these works was translated into English in 2015 by Adam J. Goldwyn and Dimitra Kokkini.Tzetzes, John.

He differentiated in the following way: in a simple allegory, an invisible action is (simply) signified or represented by a visible action; Anagoge is that "reasoning upwards" (sursum ductio), when, from the visible, the invisible action is disclosed or revealed."... est simplex allegoria, cum per visibile factum aliud invisibile factum significatur. Anagoge, id est sursum ductio, cum per visibile invisibile factum declaratur." The four methods of interpretation point in four different directions: The literal/historical backwards to the past, the allegoric forwards to the future, the tropological downwards to the moral/human, and the anagogic upwards to the spiritual/heavenly.

The windows as an ensemble. Understanding and interpreting the windows can be difficult in an era out of contact with medieval theology, teachings and sermons commenting on the Gothic cathedrals' stained glass windows. However, the presence of the famous 12th-century School of Chartres suggests that the precise placing of the windows had meaning for their designers. As taken up in the design of other Gothic churches, Suger's arguments showed how all four senses of scripture were present: # Literal (the product of linguistic understanding of the statement) # Allegorical or typological (stating one thing by saying another) # Tropological or Moral (stages that the human spirit had to go through in order to ascend towards God; concerning the present) # Anagogic (giving an idea of final realities which would become visible at the end of time; concerning the future) The windows can be grouped in several different ways.
