-Non-magi are the majority and second-class citizens on Myrah. They are restricted by checkpoints that limit free movement, required to pay homage to the elites, and confined outside city walls. They live in the cities within proximity to magi areas but are separated by illusions or barriers. Revolts by repressed workers—often involving property damage or assaults on elites—are brutally suppressed through street killings, arrests, torture, public executions, or exile to the Trans-Herridan Wall, a virtual death sentence. The economy and government are controlled by the magi, who reserve luxuries and resources for themselves, fostering a culture of rivalry, suspicion, and conformity. Institutions like the magic academy in Thallius enforce rigid routines: dawn practices, inspections, classes, exams, and punishments such as flogging or solitary confinement for infractions.+Non-magi are the majority and second-class citizens on Myrah.

 Daily life is monotonous and surveilled, with global enchantments monitoring magi activity. Social interactions, especially in elite circles, revolve around information-gathering for advantage, and non-elites like William often feel out of place, yearning for the freedom beyond the walls despite faded memories of their origins. Daily life is monotonous and surveilled, with global enchantments monitoring magi activity.
