The Void

There is a dark place among the stars where no star is, and some are born under that. The mages have a name for the sign, and do not like to say it. For magic has run through all this world since the Stone was broken, and here are people in whom it simply stops, as a river stops at a dam.

A child of the Void cannot light a candle by art. No potion works in him. The curse runs off him, and so, it is said, does the healer's spell; and the fire that kills his company leaves him standing in the smoke, very much alone. He feels magic near him, as a draught is felt. And he can do one thing with it, which is to end it.
