Muslims were better sorcerers and who ever is the best mage       wins, it is no different in politics now. Who holds this power is both feared       and venerated and yes,        these 2 sides swore to fight t the end. Christianity should have been       pluralistic not dualistic not about the duals between light and dark, but that       is exactly what it became. So both old Testament religions are still at it to       this day. The unholy        trinity in dark mage is when you take on a demon as the guardian angel of ones       gates and it lives through you so that you can actualize or become your       highest power. No matter what side you use, it is still about the power.       Sadly, this is what natural        order once harnessed is used for.
