-# Arcane Sciences 
-Magic is not an arcane gift but a volatile, raw force that functions like dangerous, unstable machinery, requiring the practitioner to calculate and engineer outcomes rather than chant incantations.  
  
-### The Three Pillars of Power 
-Magic is generally categorized by its source, which dictates how a character interacts with magic: 
- 
-* **Spellcasting**: Spellcasting is the discipline of channeling raw magical energy through a Focus to shape and direct a specific effect into the world, transforming the caster’s will into a tangible, high-stakes manifestation of power. 
- 
-* **Infusions:** An Infusion is a stabilized medium of single-serving magic, binding a single, potent spell effect into a portable form that can be reliably triggered without the need for a focus. 
- 
-* **Vessels:** A Vessel is a physical object — ranging from a simple glass vial to a complex talisman — that has been permanently or temporarily endowed with a specific charge of spell energy, allowing the magic to be stored safely and released on demand.
