Wizards still get a number of different cantrips (level 0 spells) that they can cast. The thing is, they dont 'lose' the spell casting it. They can cast those  cantrips over and over. However, at least on early levels there's a limit of how many cantrips you can have prepared, it makes no sense preparing any of them more than once since you dont 'lose' them by casting them of course, but still, I didn't want to just assume.</div></div><br/>The archmage listened to Tehr without interruptions. Listening to the words spoken, from beginning to the end, intent on hearing the younger man out to the very end. Even as he waited and watched Tehr though, there was a brief nod now and then, as he heard the man speak out his thoughts.<br/><br/>Finally once Tehr was done, the archmage took a short breath and began to speak in reply. "You will need power. Not only magic, but strength of character. To raise your house standing you will have to engage in dirty games. Yet you have queen's favor, and you are at Queen's side. I approve of your drive." The man nod his head faintly, his tone entirely serious as a hand rose to the mask he wore, seeming to tap on its surface a couple of times.<br/><br/>"The Church's power is remarkable, but there are a lot of people taht still believe int he old ways. The church has attempted to bring about hunts for those people. Not all appreciate it." The arch-mage turned to look at him intently for a bit. "You will find allies in all that the church has sought to oppress, but beware of foreigners. THe power of church is stronger further away from Londinium on the mainland."<br/><br/>His tone was warning, but relaxed at the same time. Watching him, the Archmage raised his voice in a relaxed manner. "As for your desires after blue magic and teaching it, its not an impossible dream, but nothing the strict guidance of the church would permit. The moral it is trying to teach is so restrictive, so controlling, that the Old Ways hold strong in some people both as rebellion against the church, and as something more sensible, in many ways." He paused at this.<br/><br/>"Ask the Queen about the old mansion that has been sitting unattended at the heart of Londinium. Perhaps it'll serve as your home, or as your school one day." The archmage had no real emotion in his voice as he stated this. "Its owner lays dead, its inheritor does not want it, but the crown has not granted it away due to respect to the surviving inheritor." He took a step away. "If you are strong enough to claim ownership of it, then you will be on your way."
