Magical weapons??
I have currently a sword of some sort which has been identified by a lady just on the outskirts of Shrouded Hills, which is magical,a little window beside the message window, on the left if i'm correct, has the magic symbol and the numbers 00008!!! what is all that about?

I suppose it's Mage's Dagger?
Some magical items have their own mana. It gets uses before your own (fatigue, actually) and regenerates. That way you can cast more powerful spells without fainting.

Also you see a percentage in your weapon info: that's the percents of the weapon's full power which can be used with your magical aptitude. See why fable and I reccomended to stick to one side? The higher your magical apptitude is, the better protection you have against weaker powers, the more powerful your spells are and the stronger your equippement is <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />.
