      The Future of Magecraft.
      In EXTRA and CCC worlds Mystery is dead, to that end magi turned to Spiritron Hacking (it also confirms that spiritrons are photons and by extentention souls).
      Also certain Magecraft no matter how spread out seems to not wane, like Reinforcement, which almost every mage seems to know.

      I’d be really interested in how new mage families are established, in particular for people with no prior knowledge of magecraft. Waver’s family is only a few generations old, correct? So how did the first mage in his family discover he could perform magecraft and go about learning more to establish a new mage family?
      For a second idea, what happens to a mage family’s stuff when they die out? Is it ransacked or auctioned off?
      I admit I’m much more interested in the first one. A new family coming into being, deciding on a focus, etc, sounds really interesting to me.

    I feel so sorry for what happened to Paracelsus. He kinda reminds me of Touma Kamijou from a Certain Magical Index. Because so many leaders and masterminds cannot understand why he helps people and thinks he has some kind of ulterior motive, but no, he just wants to help people.

    The different kinds of angel's, demon's, and maybe other magical entities like the Djinn or were-creatures/magic that allows one to take on a more bestial form. The other thing I was thinking of would be humans that managed to surpass their human limits and come up with inhuman creations and or techniques like Sasaki Kojiro incorporating the second magic into his ultimate technique as an example.

      I’m seriously interested in what’s the deal with the Abrahamic God in Type-moon. Not even the mages are certain what he is and how he factors into the universe. They’ve found a way to explain his angels but not him. Is he Alaya or is he Akasha itself or is he completely separate from this entities? Just a complete unknown. Hopefully we get answers from the church in the sequel to the Tsukihime remake

      @@connortobin7398 Uhh No.Just look at mages from the modern era.Ancestors of these mages where just humans who stumbled upon the supernatural.Infact Mages from the Age of Gods were much more civilised than the depraved magus population of the present era who'd willing slaughter innocents if it meant furthering their craft.AOG magi that have lived upto modern era like Brishian and Zelretch who were disciples of Solomon literally Saved the world.The former by warning the Magus Association to not mess with ORT and the latter by defeating the Crimson Moon.
      If modern humans had access to magecraft it would lead to total Chaos.Millitary Might and Terrorist activity would be escalated to new levels.Imagine Isis getting access to Divine Curses of Ancient times , summoning Jinns or making contracts with the Shaitan like the Hassan i Sabbah.
      Not to mention even if the stabilization of Thaumaturgical Foundations somehow prevented magecraft from being weakened to the point of redundancy ,there'd be a whole slew of problems.The major problem would be Christianity literally leading a world wide witch hunt against the Mages association which the Holy Church would gladly help with.
      Dead Apostles Ancestors would take advantage of the Chaos to wipe out the holy church further worsening the conditions.
      Wandering sea wouldn't give 2 fucks about what's happening and Atlas might try to remedy the situation.

    Last time I was so early people analyzing systems as much as Dai and Lord El Melloi II were shunned for diluting Mystery.

    In my personal experience, the deeper a scientist goes into their field, the more "there’s something involved in the making and explaining of this" they are.
    I learned a bit of runes, and am learning sanskrit and Japanese. When I watched what my friend and her superiors are writing for their papers and experiments and theories in their physics laboratory, I rewrote a part of a runic text I practiced on from a couple years back and slapped some Japanese idioms and phrases from Buddhist text I am reading for Sanskrit.
    She answered with: "My boss says it tracks they are similar".
    So, maybe some really deep in quantum physics scientist could become a mage by pure coincidence? That'd be fun 😂
