This still seems to be saying: 'To be an initiate of LM you must have
concentrated on Theism' I'm with Viktor that I don't see that in the
rules, although I agree that:
- devotees must have concentrated magic
- to be an LM master (as opposed to apprentice) you have to be a
devotee
- most LM apprentices aspire to be masters
- most LM masters are distrustful of apprentices who don't follow the
normal course towards becoming a master (focussing their studies,
sucking up to the masters, concentrating magic...)
- Most LM of all persuasions view all other magic as unworthy, at
least publically)
The result of all that would certainly be that anyone keeping their
mixed magics would not be viewed favorably and would probably be
somewhat shunned. Not that this would bother many LM scholars, who
might not notice for years that nobody was talking to them.....
