How does a magician tap magical power? Does becoming a magician require some rite of passage (investing one's power in an object, being chosen by the gods, constructing or being given a permanent link to the source of power, successfully summoning a demon, etc.) or does it just happen naturally, as a result of study or as a part of growing up?
Since every being potentially has the power to wield magia, discerning those that can requires the master mage to cast the spell Gem's Knowing (which allows the caster to see what elementals lie in the target's heart.) What colors they see (if any) determines which elements the target can safely wield. Knowing this, a Gemsinger's heart, when revealed this way, will glow exceptionally bright with all twelve colors of magia.
Magia can awaken in a person as early as four or five years old, but the person's innate power (the element tied to their birth month) is the first one to appear, usually before they begin school (five-seven years old). If I lived in Sekiya, my innate power would be Holy magia; for example
