Arcana Conditionibus
"The Secrets of Conditioning", this series of secrets carry neither direct damage to their target, nor direct benefit. Instead, it weakens and even as much as literally destroy the defences of its enemies. Many secrets here result in the increase in enemies receive, by placing incantations and secrets of conditions upon them.
Generally, these secrets are some of the most valued in all of Temuair. The majority of them have no explicit ties to natural elements, and a great deal of them, such as Curses have to do with the psychology of the enemy, and how to destroy it. It is for this reason that many such secrets are bestowed upon Priests, or Rogues, and not Wizards who are mainly concerned with nature, its elements, and sheer knowledge. This is because Priests, being empaths and conduits to the spiritual, have an inherent connection to the mental realms. Rogues on the other hand, have such a sheer amount of tricks, where illusion, and reality fade into one - which affects the psychology of the enemy quite remarkably.
Of course, exceptions always exist, for no rule is complete without them, and it is left upon us to justify them.
