Every spell you cast, no matter how minor, cuts both ways. The Burning Legion has watched us for millenia, always waiting for the smallest rift to slip through, the smallest stirring to whisper from. That single moment is all a demon needs to wreak havoc. It weakens the laws of this realm to allow the impossible to happen, if only for a moment. Arcane magic twists the boundaries of our world. But you should never forget its fundamental nature. Magic is a tool, some would even say a gift. Mages don't bargain, they don't plead, and they don't even compel - mages understand. Mages seek the purity of absolute arcane knowledge - knowledge untainted by dark pacts or the promise of a glory gained if one follows the precepts of an unknown and unknowable philosophical force.
They do not entreat or bargain with elemental spirits (yet they can summon elemental power, after a fashion), they do not invoke the Holy Light or the Shadow that opposes it, and the fel magic that drives warlocks does not interest them. Mages are the purest spellcasters, in a way. You're playing the game, you're fighting the bosses, you know the how - but do you know the why? Each week, Matthew Rossi and Anne Stickney make sure you Know Your Lore by covering the history of the story behind World of Warcraft. The World of Warcraft is an expansive universe.
