Galia answers more questions...

Some more questions about my world, answered:

Q: You say magia is cast through magic instruments...would that make every form of music magical?

A: No. A spell has to be named before you play it, so just playing a popular tune or random notes will not work.

Q: Is it possible to wield magia through one's voice?

A: Yes, although no records have been found of a Singer that actually sang. In fact, it would be actually harder to wield magia this way because it would be going through your own body rather than an instrument, which would tire out the Singer faster due to the immense power the magia holds.

Q: What if you can't wield magia for some reason?

A: They are treated no different from those that do wield magia, although it is not unheard of for someone who previously had no magia to discover they can actually wield it.

Q: How many of the twelve elements can you wield at one time if only one can wield all of them safely?

A: Most Singers can safely wield one to three elements, although fairies and elves can wield more than that (they can safely wield up to six). Any other race safely wielding more than three elements of magia is reletively rare.

Q: Why is there a limit on how many elements you can wield?

A: Although you cannot die from casting magia, you CAN exhaust yourself to the point where you could die. The limit is in place for two reasons: one to prevent the abuse of the magia, and to prevent Singers from becoming exhausted by wielding elements they can't control.

If you have a question about the world of Sekiya, please don't hesitate to ask me--you could see your question on a future Q&A!
