Mistook mechamancy for metamancy. Why can't we just call it robotics?

because we like the divination suffix better?

wait, we aren't divining ......

-mancy: From Ancient Greek μαντεία (manteia, “divination”).

divination (countable and uncountable; plural divinations):
1. (uncountable) The act of divining; a foreseeing or foretelling of future events.
2. The pretended art of discovering secrets or the future by preternatural means.
3. (countable) An indication of what is future or secret; augury omen; conjectural presage; prediction.

have we been using the wrong word since the start?

Pyrourgy, and cryourgy don't sound quite as... Fun as pyromancy, and cryomancy.

In essence, divination was how all historical magic got started.

If it makes us The Wizard that Did It with better sounding magic types, then it serves as a good enough excuse for me.

Thats simple.
Just remove the filter and let the Cryswarm talk to them.

but our enemy has a cryswarm, too. train your brain! Gradually reduce the effectiveness of the filter, until you can connect to all of the cryswarm without problems. this might take longer than a day, so do other tasks while training.


let the most interesting thoughts of the cryswarm be displayed

Zion has a Cryswarm all nice and fixed to his liking, with only one voice.
Unfilter our cryswarm and you (literally) get a thousand voices talking at once.
He'd never be prepared for THAT!

We need to pump our Cryswarm up to 17000 soon, then tell it to overload the minds of our enemies with thousands of different poems.
For now just practice our aim with pyromancy until the kid wakes up, then start teaching him technology and mechamancy.
I'm wondering, how UnBalanced would we need to be to house several different types of unlike mana within our body? Metamancy mana doesn't count.

We would have to break the laws of MAGIC (not Physics) to cancel out the Wizard/Non-Wizard mana barrier.
That would also dissolve the split between mana and antimana, but it would also cause all the magics to lose power and mush together a bit, kind of like how we lost gravity during the Physics-less part.

Would this be advantageous to us in any way, other than saying we did it before Blacksmith, The?
