I've always wondered about this in the lore.
Black Magic and why its outlawed and taught the way it is sort of explained? I never did the questline for it and I've heard bits and pieces. Thats fine.
Just White Magic is what I'm wondering about.
White Magic isn't allowed to be studied at all unless your a Padjal or the super special Warrior of Light. We know White Magic caused one of the calamities in the past that drained all the aether yet it being outlawed seems to make no sense.
Why would you outlaw a magic that can help people? Why only padjal?
I tried to read up on it but never got much except from the questline. It just seems so strange that it stays limited in practice. Conjurers have limited healing capabilities but if something truly horrific happens beyond a conjurer's capabilities, how would they get one of the only white mages in existence?
I don't know. Its my questions and suppose one way to get more lore out of it from somewhere.
