: I think it is likely that there are Dreams (the 49 parts
: of the One Dream) and then there is magic and they are
: seperate. Does it say in GURPS anything about how
: normal magic was discovered?
I don't think so... I think normal magic was just discovered before the Dreams, though.
In the GURPS system, the dreams require the caster to have sufficient magic skills and prerequisite spells to cast them (dispersal dream is the only one described in detail, so I'm going from that), so it would seem that dreams are only a higher form of magic.
