[ The Mist comes in readily this time, the familiar whir of machinery humming to life. It lifts smoothly and responds eagerly to his commands to gain height and a little speed. Gods, it's good to feel some wind in his hair. He angles it toward a wider path back out of the cave they're in. ]

I apologize that I may have slept through most of my magickal theory classes, but essentially the world -- well mine, and this anyway -- has an ambient energy force called the Mist. Humes -- humans -- figured out how to channel it some hundreds of years ago, the Vierra -- another group -- much longer. Anyone can be taught to weild magick by tapping into the Mist, so I'm essentially channeling it into the craft. Anything like that on your world?
