Hi Drawdrone! I have a few questions relating to your magic systems! With red aether, are there any other ways that you can gain red aether other than from natural disasters? I was thinking that you might be able to sacrifice people or animals (a horrible thought, but it would explain why people might distrust red aether mages). If so, would simply killing the creature provide aether provide a lot of aether, or burning it more? Would aging also produce red aether?
Could you use green aether to manipulate and move living creatures with green aether, like white aether manipulation? If so, those magics tend to blend.
Finally, which magic is up next?
Thanks so much, love your work,
A fellow worldbuilder!

Red aether is released anytime a physical object suffers degradadion. Be it a slow process, like a plant decaying or a dead body rotting away, or fast - like an explosion. In this case, yes - gathering red aether form a ritual sacrifice is possible, in fact there is a cult called the Hamanites that does that.
As for the green aether - you cannot use it to move other people, since green aether found in other living beings can be only affected through physical contact.
As for the l;ast question, I haven't decided yet, but I'm leaning towards Evocation being the next magic.

Thanks so much for answering! I love reading these once they come out every month. They're really creative, and it gives a new perspective to worldbuilding and magic systems.
Keep up the good work!
