Magic done improperly by a person very new to it can go very wrong. Fortunately, a very kind wizard helps fix the mess and gently teach proper safety. -- Anon Guest

Magic is everywhere. Many find it as natural as breathing, but there are those who can learn to harness it via education and skill. Teachers find those with magic in their bones, usually before a great upset causes trouble for them. Or for anyone around them.

But for those who choose to learn... there's not always a ready source of formal education. This leads to what sages refer to as Interesting Times.

In extreme circumstances, the result is a Wild Magic wasteland. Places where gravity operates under its own rules, floating islands are an everyday occurrence, and M. C. Escher may well have been an entirely rational architect. Places where monsters are born in otherwise normal circumstances. Places where nightmares become flesh, and we're not talking about the one where you have to give a speech in your underwear.
