Also found in tribes are the holy men/women. The Tree Dwellers have Shamans, where the Mountain People have Spirit Healers, and the Plain Herders have Rainmen. The tribes who dwell in the jungles usually are against such “holy” things, and feel that in their own right deserve to take from the earth, water, and air as they please. They have Witchdoctors who are trained in such a way that can do amazing and terrifying magic. The holy men and women can do wonderful things as well. They are more in tuned with nature and all living things, and therefore are able to do what Healers could usually not do: cure droughts, plague, and even sometimes revive a person who had just lost their life.
Oh! I like the difference between the holy men and Healers. Interesting...
ReplyDeleteYeah, in the world of Kendara, the cultures thrive on magic. I really want to reveal more, but for now, just know that the continent of Balashar truly limits their "magic" thanks to the spirits of the lands. They first commune with them before doing anything "magical"
ReplyDeleteAlso remember that the medieval kingdoms of Balashar do not use magic, or have any one person who can do such things.
ReplyDeleteInstead they have scientists, alchemists, etc. Being at peace with the natives, they have no need for magic. Their continent has been safe ever since they made peace nearly 800 years ago.
