 #### Ways souls are restored
-##### Soul Splitting
-||Some souls get split and become two souls during the reincarnation process. This can also cause these two new souls to interact specially when returned to Kona. Some may form string bonds immediately upon meeting each other. These can be platonic or romantic. This is where the concept of [[Soulmates]] comes from. On the other end of the spectrum, these souls can represent aspects of this individual that were in conflict. This results in [[Nemeses]]. ||
-##### Alien Souls
-Sometimes a soul from a different star arrives. These can result in exceeding strange or unusual individuals.
 ##### Fresh Souls
 The sun flares, adding more fresh souls to the world. When this happens, some cultures will hold festivals. The resulting aurora are called [[The Dance of Souls]].
-## How does the Sun factor in?

-## The Moons
+## Soul Magic
-Several Moons; different kinds of magic draw from different moons
+People have learned how to harness souls in many different ways.
-Astronomical events tied to events on Kona
+  * [[Arcanists]] have managed to store some ghost image of the souls of long-deceased and wield them in combat.
-New moon recently showed up?
+  * [[Chimerists]] gather their power from the souls of the monsters and beasts they encounter.
-Different moons blocking out different stars have an effect on the status of Kona
+  * [[Darkblades]] are somber and powerful warriors who hide a sorrowful past. Due to tragic experiences on the battlefield or in personal life, their souls have developed an affinity for pain and shadow energy.
-When a soul goes to the Star, the Star stores their memories and other “gunk” and filters them out
+  * [[Elementalists]] have learned to channel the souls that flow within the basic elements of creation: Air, Earth, Fire and Water.
-Every time a soul gets filtered through the moon, the moon deposits something onto the soul
+  * [[Entropists]] claim to not work with souls, but with [[The Void Beyond]]. Whether what they claim is true is hard to say.
-Necromancy moon causes souls to bounce back to Kona. Lead? It's very visible, and when the moon passes overhead you try very hard not to die
+  * [[Spiritists]] have developed a powerful connection with the raw aspects of soul: emotion, energy, life, and death.
-Evil empire trying to conquer the moons and consume their magic
+  * [[Tinkerers]] harness souls in the form of [[Magitech]], allowing them to create autonomous devices. And in extreme cases, even life.
