Talking around spoilers:

We saw a powerful ability of Godslayer when we saw it being used - which 
does not appear to be its primary purpose.   This was in an 
extraordinary circumstance, where it was created, well used - and was in 
proximity of a huge source of power.   I wouldn't be surprised to 
discover that such abilities aren't easy to evoke in lesser circumstances.

But what we have observed leads me to suspect that the nature of 
amphoria and various magics are not inherently structured the way we see 
them.    They get molded into rules - or maybe Names that we 
understand.   This process is less dangerous than elder sorcery and more 
predictable.   But behind it all they're all the same.    The trick will 
be how to get some of the power from the basic elements without losing 
the structure that has been built up.
