If magi traditionally have only one heir, wouldn't that mean that their numbers would be dramatically reduced each generation, especially considering how prone they are to murdering each other? If they wish to reach the Root, which of course they do as magi, then they would have to do it in a way that stabilizes their numbers so that they can continue their project for as long as it takes, centuries or entire millennia if need be. Even becoming a dead apostle like NRVNQSR or Roa can only get you so far.
one heir doesn't mean one child, el stupido
stupid secondary dont know about magic crests in fate
>>725953235It doesn't, but lore says that only one child can be made aware about magic, and to my knowledge, there are no magi who were born to parents where only one of them was initiated into magic.
>>725953628And neither can you really initiate somebody into magic later in life, since magi training is designed to start from childhood onward.>>725953520The issue of crests is different from the issue of having enough people capable of becoming real magi and avoiding a genetic bottleneck.
