So, out of context, these are my questions:
- What are the factors in learning magic?
- Does it require study?
- Does it require a sort of "attunement" with the magic of the world?
- What kind of components are involved? IE, Vocal, Somatic, Material, Focus, etc.
- Does magic draw energy of some kind from the user?
- Does it vary depending on the kind of magic? If yes, how so?
More contextually...
My character is currently an archer, and I eventually plan to have them start studying magic (what kind will depend on roleplay). She's very intelligent, and learns things quick. What other obstacles would she have to deal with, and how long would it take for her to learn how to, say, heal a wound or toss a fireball?

Does anyone have any information or theories on how drawing on it are on the other continents? Would disciplines that draw aether from the environment rather than from inside oneself be more difficult to do?
