Dance

Dance as an artform and social skill are important on Murriet. Dance on its own is used for social reasons, allowing people the opportunity to mix and mingle in a controlled environment. This gives the younger generations the opportunity to spend "quality time" with members of the opposite sex in a controlled, public environment.
Dance is also used for political reasons, both as an opportunity for discreet meetings and discussions in public places, but also as a way of announcing partnerships and alliances, snubbing rivals, and creating bonds.
Centuries after the invention of Lexology, the ideas used in Lexology to define magical spells are applied to dance, allowing dancing to be used to cast spells.
