Magic on Saylua is a blanket term used to refer to a variety of unusual phenomenon perceived as supernatural which occurred after The Impact. Specifically, unusual observations after The Impact include:
- Creatures near the meteor crash site started to evolve very rapidly, believed to be caused by an increased rate of mutation.
- Some creatures evolved to use elemental powers such as the ability to breath fire.
- Luaria started to have a frequent aurora in the sky, which Luarians call the Aria.
- The planet of Saylua started to have longer days until it became fully tidally locked during an era known as the Transition Age.
Sayluans referred to the seemingly miraculous observations they saw in the meteor crash site following The Impact as magic simply because the occurrences did not seem to be logical. Although it has been widely studies, magic on Saylua is still a poorly understood concept. The leading explanation for the working of magic on Saylua is the Arian Particle Hypothesis, which states that magic is tied to extremely powerful particles contained on the meteor.
Significance on Luaria
The people of Luaria often credit magic with saving their side of the planet, in spite of the great tragedies brought by The Impact. Before the discovery of magic, the meteor crash site was believed to be a near complete dead zone where almost all life living in the area had died. However, the few creatures that did survive The Impact were hardy and eventually reproduced to create offspring with magical capabilities. Before the word Luaria was used to refer to the dark side of Saylua, the word was used to refer to the hope brought to the meteor crash site by the presence of newly thriving life.
In the present day, Luarians value magic extremely highly. While Sayleans tend to see magic as something that should be studied and understood, so that it can be used to create new technologies, Luarians see magic as a necessity to their lives. Luarians are constantly directly interacting with magic and use magic in everyday activities from farming to adventuring.
