aldersprigMagic in Steam!Reiassan
In the Steam Era of Reiassan, the sira-flinging of ancient days is long past.
Scientists - really, proto-scientists - study what they often call aether, the flow of power through the world. There is far less wild sira in the steam era; the aether itself is harder to come by in its non-mined form.
However, the students at the school will learn about the manipulation of the aether. They will study old magical artifacts - and that is one thing about Reiassan, it's lousy with magical items. And the items often know they are Magical Items.
This balance between Old Magic and New Science will be both a character issue and a plot issue as the students work their way through school.
