Shandris had lived through the War of the Ancients and had witnessed Dath'Remar Sunstrider's departure firsthand. She knew all too well how desperately elven mages craved and depended on magic.

And now they intended to repair the void energy spires and draw power from demons.

However, when she heard that Aegwynn alone would be drawing on demonic power, she considered it carefully. After hearing Aegwynn's explanation, she finally agreed.

Aegwynn said, "Holy Light, shadow, arcane, fel, life, death. These are all components of everything in the universe. Mages use arcane magic, and when arcane magic is twisted, it becomes fel. In that case, why can't fel be converted into arcane magic?"
