I don't remember seeing the word "sorcling" before, so I'm going to claim I came up with it 😁

The council liked to see sorclings as expendable, but they weren't an end-
less resource, since no one knew why so few children were born with the tal-
ent for magick. Still, from the council’s perspective, the important thing was
that any child brought here was nothing but a sorcerer.

So what? We're not supposed to have any use for things like race or gen-
der? his Kor side wondered.

“No! They only get in the way.”

But whatever sorcerers pretended in public, in private, they were somewhat
aware of their own parts. But their ‘don’t ask, don't tell’ tradition, combined with
the rule that all sorcerers go by the pronoun ‘him’, stopped them from asking
personal questions. Just a few of the things sorclings had voice-beaten into
them during their first four decades in Administration.

Season's Readings 😊

@HeyLaiverd asked to read my stuff offline.

I thought why not make the first part of The Last Philosopher available to everyone.

Use QR or link in alt-text to get e-book, and feel free to share.
