the verb harm means to injure something physically or mentally, you cannot injure an inanimate object because it is not alive
You can injure a stone, breaking a stone in half is injuring it? It just doesn’t feel pain as it’s not alive
Welcome to the lore of AA/ao. Plants are living so they would have magic energy in them. Iron naturally conducts magic energy but you need to make it Arcanium/devourer metal to naturally hold magic in it
do you have any proof to this or are you making it up like most of these other statements
Is Sea Salt alive 
Hell, is water alive? The dark sea clearly imbued it.
All my other statements have been correct by stated by vetex or Athena. In this case it’s talked about in the book which talks about Arcanium creation
Vetex decided a gem stone and sea salt hold magic in it
Yeah against magic attacks. And if you look at the page of gems and metal in Athena she even states only some metals naturally store magic
Oh wait, sea water has salt in it. That makes sense…
thats unrelated to what im talking about
youre saying magic causes no destruction because things dont have magic energy, but its the other way around
it causes more destruction because they dont have magic energy, they have no way to clash against it and so they take the full force of it.
“damaging the body”
athena is talking about living substance here
That would apply to none living things too
no it would not
lets take the scene of the prison break in ravenna for example
iris launches a flare attack and bursts all of the windows of the castella
the windows arent alive so they dont have magic energy, clearly her magic destroyed it
Yikes that’s gameplay so it can’t be used as most of the gameplay is actually not canon
athena is gameplay too, so yikes thats not canon either
Isn’t that literally the story though..?
Athena is a lore dump as vetex got tired of people saying the lore only in the discord
