Jeez haha yeah I guess I have some stuff I have to fix, I just made a reddit so I'm a little new to how to post things honestly sorry haha. * So basically The Wanderers would take a piece of the Crocillium and wear it as a necklace (kind of like the Disney movie Atlantis, same principal basically heart of the world crystal without it shit dies) and when they died it would automatically be recycled pretty much, in case of sudden death like murder a shaman would preform a ritual. * The reason Castor was able to shatter the Corcillium was because the Wanderers were performing the ritual to allow him to take some magic, so it was open to human touch (basically a shitty metaphor for being hurt when you open up to someone). * It didn't matter that the Wanderers were near the gem when it was destroyed because Castor cursed them like right after, basically negating any power they could have had. * I probably should have wrote this in (this doc was super old and I had to format a bunch of stuff and looking at it I lost a LOT of information) I'm basically playing around with the idea that the Gods become the Corcillium ( like they become the physical manifestation of the gem) OR the Corcillium still exists,but just enough to supply witches and to keep the world going (this is the idea I currently have) if the Corcillium still existed just in a depleted form it would be possible to create witches on such a large scale through basically having someone constantly preform The Wanderers ritual to allow more people to have power over magic. (Most likely enslaved fae) also the return of the magic was basically automatic in death so Isa and Iso didn't even realize that was happening. * Yeah there are two witches in every familial generation which only consists of imediate family (I don't fuck with second cousins). Basically in every generation (like grand parents, parents ect) there are 2 witches. So your dad, your grandma and your sister could all be witches. The family thing is kind of involved and I'm still fleshing out the details but basically yes there are witches in every familial generation and the "line" so to speak goes back about 6 generations (more I felt would be to confusing and hard to detail) I hope this clarifies a lot on my original post, and I hope the formatting is better this time around
