I think we are talking in circles here. The "Believe" magic system, as we would call it, has been eliminated I think. That's the one proposed pretty early in this threat. But I think it was dismissed. The probelm here is that we mistake divine and arcane magic as something different. The only thing different here is, I think, were it comes from. Either from nature or rather oneself, or the divine.I don't mean the practice of magic as a science—I mean the way magic works being a science. Magic is a force of nature, like gravity. It might be approached in different ways or used in different ways—but all those ways follow the same basic rules. Otherwise you get systems that are mutually exclusive and create the question of "why are there two completely unrelated, mutually distinct sources of what is, in theory, a universal force". It would be like having two completely different laws of gravity
