'''The Fractured Prism'''
The higher truths of the Supernal World are constantly broadcast down into the Fallen World, distorted into a thousand different forms — such as the occult beliefs of Sleepers throughout the world.

Privy to such culture-bound magical secrets, these mages wield power unknown to others.
