"Magnetic" obviously doesn't mean the same thing on Atys as it does to us. The Zoraï use "magnetism" to make things float, not just metal, all sorts of things. And apparently amber has strong "magnetic" properties.
Well, that or it does mean the same thing, but the sap that flows through everything has magnetic properties without being a metal, somehow.
It would make some kind of sense, I suppose. In our world magnetism is a force caused by flowing electrons, so on Atys it can be caused by flowing sap? Maybe sap is actually full of free electrons.

I'm really pleased to see new things being added to the game. So much so that I've restarted my sub.

Copied form Wikipedia on the subject of "Electricity":
Thales' experiments with amber rods were the first studies into the production of electrical energy.
While this method, now known as the triboelectric effect, is capable of lifting light objects and even generating sparks,
it is extremely inefficient.
Interesting isn´t it? Maybe the Amber on Atys is a bit more "efficient"

Re: Patch 1.9.0: Marauder and Occupations
Mmmm, tasty discussion.
The Zoraï seek out "places of high magnetism". That must be what Magnetic Cartography is about.
Now that I look for where I read that, I can't find it, but I did find these:
"In the ancient lands they built places of high magnetism where homins could find tranquility and energy resource to help them through life on Atys."
- http://atys.ryzom.com/projects/puben/wi ... vilisation
"Your ancestors built a society structured around magnetic temple-cities where grand ceremonies were orchestrated for spiritual enlightenment."
- http://atys.ryzom.com/projects/puben/wiki/L_BeingZorai
"Great sage, Fung-Tun, directs Zoraï leader, Hoi-Cho, to a place of high magnetism where the capital city of Zora is raised"
