Yahir

Yahir is the in-universe term used, in some contexts, for what we would term "magic" in Undersided. It is the nature by which yarov exist and utilize their capabilities, and it is the system to which SOULs and determination belong. It is often described in-universe as being associated with concepts, expressions, and patterns rather than fixed mechanics. It can be seen as "tugging on" other systems of the world from the direct, human-interactable level. Thus we get yahiric manifestations - phenomena such as yarov with no clear explanation besides the independent system.

Effects

Life and light

Yahir can cause a high degree of diversity and presence of life in places that would otherwise be uninhabitable, as well as providing "ambient" illumination to significant degrees in regions.

Sustenance

Because of this "tug", it is possible to utilize a form of "yahiric food" to satiate sustenance needs - this works best for yarov, but can work marginally well for humans as well as shown by Magzi's life in the Ebott Underground alongside the Yahiraban culture.
