Sprites of Dystava

Globules of blue light, emanating raw magic, found with in the Elysian Institute of Arcana before its untimely descent and crash into the eastern seas of Elysia.

Research by Boom
Initial investigations in the sprites of magic with the use magic detection spells uncover that the small ethereal like orbs, imbued and born from pure mana and the source of which seems to corelate with the findings in Dystava's Benedicite of the Demain, in reference to the discovery of incarnum. The sprites themselves appear to form some level of sentiency. Whilst it is not factual, it wouldn't be incredulous to think of the sprites as the children of magic or Dystava themself.

Further research and investigation, using identification magics over a long period of time garnered the knowledge and possible uses for the sprites. Simply put, the use of raw magic could allow to heightening of spells in their most powerful form, but would essentially dispel the sprite from existence. Possibly a great shame to something so pure within the Demain of Arcana.

Further uses could be akin to that of Ioun stones, to be used by a spellcaster as a intense focus to heighten a practitioners abilities. Whilst this would could serve as a long-term use, the greater concern would be the sheer lack of defence the sprites have. A well placed evocation spells could see the sprite disintegrated, there is also concern that in response to endangerment the sprite could react in ways that are currently inconceivable.

In regards to the place and way in which they were found in the institute, it seems simple enough to understand that the sprites can be used as a focus and replacement for materials components. In some spells, it may completely negate the cost or need for components with no side effects, though more harrowing and powerful magic may drain too much from the sprite and destroy it entirely/
