Good point. As the rules say, magic is as much WYTIWYG (well, they don't
explicitly say that, but they do in a roundabout fasion) as it is a science.
Myth and the casters perceptions and so seem to play just as important a
role in magic and spellcasting as do the hard and fast (or not so hard and
fast if you're Jani :-)) rules of the astral.
