Dark forbidden magic with corrupting physical effects on practitioners
Demutomancy emerges in the series as a sinister, forbidden art that first manifests through its corrupting physical toll on those who wield it, then deepens into a visceral, blood-driven discipline that channels life-force itself for magical ends. Across the two books, the practice shifts from an abstract, body-warping taboo to a concrete, sanguine craft whose practitioners literally manipulate blood to fuel their spells. This evolution underscores a progression from external corruption to intimate, bodily integration of power.
