An Introduction[]
The introduction to Magic of the Weave outlined the nature of the Weave, describing it as an "essential element" of existence that allowed individuals to access various forms of magic. It was not magic itself, but a tapestry of substance that could be manipulated by spellcasters.[1]
It discussed the different ways in which casters could access the Weave, through inherent connections formed at birth, years of study and practice, or deals for power made with entities beyond Toril.[1]
Mystra and the Spellplague[]
This chapter of the book shared how Mystra, the goddess of magic, was herself the Weave.[1]
