#gravity sorcery

We have the presence of the large Stargazing Altar in Redmane Keep to begin with, proof that he still watches the stars like his mother probably taught him too when he was young.

We have his portrait present in Volcano Manor, showing that he must have had a good relationship with his elder brother Rykard, as not even Ranni has a portrait in his home, and those two conspired with each other!

We have Abductor Virgins present across Caelid and in Redmane Castle specifically, showing Rykard willingly gifted them to his brother’s forces (similarly to him having them placed at Raya Lucaria to guard their mother from intruders.)

We have his innate talent, and training, with magic that he utilises in combat. The likelihood that an Alabaster Lord was arranged as a tutor for him by his family being high considering its location near Caria Manor in an Evergaol. Showing they wished to support him in his pursuits.

We have his pride in his Red Hair, which yes does come from his pride of being a Son of Radagon, but I would argue it also shows his pride in Ranni and Rykard as they too possess the red hair of their dad.

Even though he was effectively sent away to Sellia to learn gravity sorcery when he was younger, it’s likely that this came about either as a result of the Alabaster Lord being unreliable, or out of Rennala seeking a better place for him to learn gravity magic for his aspiration of easing the burden on his favoured mount.

He confronted the stars alone, an act of heroism and he crushed them. The why of this is unclear, but some believe he may have done it to protect Ranni from a dark path, that the Snowy Crone was leading her down.

I find fascinating that gold is reffer to be kind, makes sense to some extend since it's associated with primordial life, it's abundance, fertility, life, it's quite ctonic, then makes sense that shadows, all those things without semblance of order, would make sense that be the opposite then, pain, suffering, lament... and kind of it's!!! the thorn sorceries that reffers to originate from the scadutree does state that tries to bring harm as a way to intepretate the state of the scadutree

Shadows, it's the harmful and bad part of life, whereas Gold is the kindful and good part of it, then makes sense that Gold in the LoS is brighter, it's among darknes than light shines the most, Suffering and Compassion are both parts of life and split it away like Marika did is a detriment to it.

At same time makes me think about Goldmask desilusion upon the fundamentalist, zealoty and hatred are not golden thing, they don't fit into an orden founden upon kindness...

Yet shadows are not darkness itself, it's not lightless, void, the greaterwill's abyss, has not actual association with gold directly, it's in gravity sorcery where void and their abyss are mention directly and explicity.

Primordial life, be golden or shadow is still primordial life, Residual life may play a role within the abyss, yet Lusat and Azur fear makes clear that it's different entirely

the Crusible current, the Primeval current & the Lightless abyss are different axis of the world...

In first instance, at the base game we learn about the existing of the Primeval Current, it's at least understood that this is the source of glintstone, the amber of stars housing it's residual life.

In second case, at the DLC we learn about the spiral, was theorized before that existed some relationship between circles, the golden ratio and gold, however now we know that the spiral itself is a equalized manifestation of a crusible current... which itself can be read as the spiral is an artificial mean at which a brief yet effective current is achive or the existence of a properly current not different from the primeval but for primordial life... which is interesting on itself.

I incline for the Later possibility, perhaps it reffers to the Primeval Current just that glintstone sorcerer focused on the residual life aspect and so we can see it only on their lens exclusively or could be an homologus or reflection of the Primeval Current, a current more instable and spontaneous of red gold coloration... but such thoughts open the umbral to other iterations...

If those things deprived of their color, deprived of their gold become somberous, it's there a somber current too?

gravity sorcery has a quite unique coloration, it's share by meteors and we see Metyr employ a comet/shard of similar chromation & so does the fallen star beasts firing a gravity comet, does gravity employ a different life force?, it's the mix of both or is perhaps distinct of both forces? if it's different would had it's own current? if it's a mix of both then could be the true color of the primeval current?

We only see 5 Crystal cave, 1 in Altus, 2 in Liurnia & 2 in Caelid, glintstone it's coloration move in gradiants of Deep Blue to Green, we see 2 abnormals variants Red Glintstone which seem implicit to be made out of blood & some sort of Somber Glintstone (the grey, cracked in some towers, it's to align with ER therms).

Like Glintstone seem to grow like an infection and be quasi organical; minners, dragons, snake-snails, plants, firefly & sorcerers posses crystal growths on their body and there are the crystallians that are living block of sculpted glintstone & exist some ancient practice to insert glintstone in living bodies, which doesn't help either.

So at first I thought that the purple meteoric ores could be it's own variet of glintstone too, but after think about it, is kind of weird, in crash sites in general there are not glintstone growths, not even the finger ruins seem to have any at all, so whatever glintstone is... don't seem to actually came from space and instead is bound to the sorcerers and their magic fuckery.

Meanwhile Night magic strange me, in one hand I want to connect it with the Ancient Light & Dark magic of the Stone-Sheated Sword, but there is not much to grasp about it and the Swordhand of the Night info seem to imply to be a hornset thingy, like Jolan & Ana allegedly came from a dark & cold goal and we found the Night Armour set in Bonny Goals and Swordhand of Night are ordaing from people born underground so... yeah, there are 3 alternatives in my head about it and none are related to the Eternals, speacially since the girls don't look numen or nightfolk.

But Night sorcery don't seem to be related astrology either even if eternals are moon-worshipers, their ruins are barren of any form of glintstone as far I can remember & Staff of Loss don't even have a glintstone stone at all, which could be a strange quirky associated to how obscure they can be if wasn't that Sellians're clearly related to the Nox. And while the take of Ancient Astrologers regarding the moon in unkowlable since it's elluded, contemporany sorcerers directly mark it as heretical, the Lazuli are called heterodox & the mere idea seem to piss-off Ymir, even if he is a Finger Zealot, his opinion likely reflect the averager scholar on the matter, doesn't help that things point that Rennala is the one that came up with the current lunacy in the topic.
