The Republic of Ayla Taksidi

Ayla Taksidi (Greek: "Intangible Journey") is a nation that was built around an Aylarealm, or a separate area hidden by an intangible illusion.

It was founded after the enemy Stenomyalh Lawn (Στενόμυαλη Λαών), or the Narrow Minded Peoples, attacked and forced the Taksidi people down into a hidden Aylarealm.

Aylarealm

An Aylarealm, from the greek word "Ayla", meaning things Intangible as represented by mist,air,and more importantly aura, is an area hidden directly by an illusion.

The Illusion usually involves something common or sensible to a gazer's eyes, often to lead them away from entering. The Illusion always directly covers or hides the area it is cast in, and is able to be transversed.

Often, when applied to certain terrain however, the Illusion can become oddly shifted or angled, causing it to not look as intended.


This canyon may look like it is filled with water, but the layer of water is actually an illusion of a lake.

Magical Practices

The pracitce of magic by Taksidi theory is of the energy used in Magic to be an extension of oneself in their aura, another type of energy present in several living things.

Ayla Taksidi also finds that Magic is an extension of Science, the nation's motto reading "Magic is only what has yet to be proven by Science", leaving one to believe that Magic is an experiment towards oneself and an extension of finding how certain things are caused.

Different Ways of using Auric Energy

Magic in Ayla Taksidi is remarkably variant based on the person. Often, practitioners will use an incantation,movement,or object to help organize what spells are being done at what time and as an aid in directing the energy and associating certain types of movements with certain actions of magic as to know what will be done.

It goes down to a desire to associate things with physical actions in animals and humans.


King Ikarsicus uses an object to direct a magical action, as well as a hand motion as to add a physical aspect to mental control.

Objects also provide an aid in aiming things such as jets of energy, and providing something to "contain" energy, when it actually is an instrument to "draw and direct" the auric energy.


A practitioner uses a physical movement (outreach of hand) to apply a physical action to shoot our, in this case, fire from his aura.

How Magic can be used

Magic is simply an extension of several bodily systems and energies directed at manipulating already existing elements, or transferring existing energy into different forms of energy (Kinetic to Thermal,Chemical to Thermal,etc.), basically adding an additional body process.

The Energy flows out of the body and is able to flow outward by the power of an aura, or directing force of bodily energy.
