Not really a klingon point, but something i just have to say.
There is no such thing as black or white magick, it's not the magick
that is different, it's the person. If someone drove over people on
purpose, you wouldn't refer to the car as being good or bad, only the
person.
Also magic does not have to have any rituals, dances, sayings. it can be
preformed very easily just within the mind.
