 The Institution of Magical Arts is THE authority of Magic, representing The Academy in The Modern Kingdom.
 Meanwhile, researchers of The Academy are nonetheless heavily invested in the study of Magic, orthodox or not. Though publicly and to the general practitioner, The Academy’s Standard for Magic is the **Standard for Orthodox Magic**.

 ==== Policing Magic ====
-Policing the application and circulation of Magic is under the jurisdiction of The Academy. The policing of Magic is a modern concept that emerged in The Academy after [[lore:timeline:The War|The War]]. At the time of The War, there are few restraints on the direction Magic is developed or the extent of its application. After the War, the need for policing the application and circulation of magic became apparent. Regulations were set in place, and those who breach them faced severe repercussions from The Institution of Magical Arts. In extreme cases, the actions taken include the complete reinstitution of a person through Magical means, or termination. This is done so in cooperation with The Modern Kingdom’s laws.
+The Academy serves as the delicate moderator of the development of Magic while sealing away the destructive implication of Magic and strict selective processes were in place (albeit, easily bypassable by the nobility) in the access of magic.
