Ed Greenwood discusses the topic of magic both in general and in the Forgotten Realms. This was a really cool look into the ideas and concepts behind "magic" as a force in the setting.

Ed talks about the origins and creation of the Forgotten Realms setting. Interesting that it didn't start off as an actual D&D setting but evolved into one later on.
