> "Knowledge" (...) is only quite _exceptionally_ something that is possessed by the individual, and (...) if he doesn't share this knowledge, but here we're slipping into a more Foucauldian area, then the secret knowledge actually becomes _madness_.
Sorry quoting myself, just to add some emphasis to this point -- if sorcery is "something you know" then its _direct_ antithesis is madness --- well from this point of view anyway :-P
Madness then, logically, would be the dark side of Sorcery, and Malkion's nemesis -- and the risk to be taken and the danger to be faced by anyone making any "deep" and "personal" research into their own Wizardry.
