The way I see this: the Mir has an established monopoly on this ... well, obviously not a complete one, because East Torphan mages have their own training system (not to mention Torphan proper), and Tal sorcerers take no shit from none, and Cedonia has a strictly controlled policy on magic, etc. Anyway, Mir has dominated the market for years, and now along comes a competitor. Note that what Exquaestio really only does is give a magic practitioner a certifigate saying that "This guy is good enough for us." Not all mages are Mir-trained. Of course, a true Mirrish mage still clearly outranks the certificate owner, but the Exquaestio practice seems to answer a market need. Which is why is succeeded. juuso ---------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send mail to celandra-off@phoenyx.net.
