"Ehh... Making magic work apparently involves special scrolls and writing things on large keystones or obelisks. And then the shrines make everyone who does the right things and wears the right clothes and works in the right building get a Job, which gives you magic, it's- We have to be scouts, be really intense about it. Codenames! Hand signals! Marking trails, making maps! Or we lose the Scout job. And all the magic that comes with the Scout job. But I tried painting over the stuff in our island's shrine, and doing the rituals as best as old legends told them which was probably terrible, and it wasn't working at all, fewer and fewer people could get the Fishing job, and there was only one woman who still had Shipwright and she died of old age, and... Well, it's a lot harder to do well for yourself without jobs."
