Rerun: Building magic systems with C.R. Rowenson

We're revisiting a fan favorite episode this week! Throwback Thursday to that time Moiya learned a process for building coherent and balanced magic systems.

This turned out to be the first in a trio of episodes. After this, listen to The World of Touchy Arachnids and then Building Magic Systems part II where Clark comes back to put his process into practice on our homegrown world.

HOSTED by Dr. Moiya McTier (@GoAstroMo), astrophysicist and folklorist
