Not daring to use magic EXCEPT in public? … What would make magic unwelcome except when there are witnesses to its use?
Is this something like me only being willing to work on electricity if I know someone is there ready to call 911? It’s not that magic has become unwelcome. It’s that the four surviving Enclave members are trying to pose as minor wizards, casting small and useful magics in return for fees, NOT a cabal or political force, these days.#Realmslore— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) March 28, 2020
Is this in regards to Shade after the Fall? Sorry, missing some context and just curious. No, this is the Enclave (cabal of wizards) in Unther, and how they're faring these days:
Some mad, four scattered sane survivors trying to pose as minor mages and make a living casting spells for coins.#Realmslore— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) March 28, 2020
The "not daring to use magic except in public" is because they fear they're being spied upon constantly, and will be seen as conspirators too dangerous not to be wiped out, if they work magic in secret.#Realmslore
