Hypothesis: Beasts with a mana circuit do possess some convergence points. However I believe they only possess three at most.
The minor magical beasts of the land, a strong foe to the unprepared, sometimes requiring squads of non magi, or physical magi to subjugate if they become hostile. To the strongest of the War Magi, they are creatures who can aid in their training and provide materials for various projects.
But the key thing most people do not think of, is their mana. Or at least more specifically, how they are casting. Is it purely on instinct? Do they possess enough of a higher soul to have thoughts? Are they mortal souls whom are being punished for a lifetime? Are they born with access to their mana circuits or do they need to unlock it like we do?
Numerous questions always persist on these creatures, but those tend to fall under philosophical questions. What interests me most right now is, do they possess similar convergence and casting types as a mortal. My current theory is as such, they only posses three of the 4 temples a Mortal have.
My Thoughts are they have these three.
The temple of the heart- Symbolic casting. What we consider the most basic of casting, is probably what the beasts also have. We cast on an almost instinctual level with such magic, but it makes sense that this is a style that a magic beast also has.
The temple of the Eyes- This may only apply to some of the creatures admittedly, as some may not possess eyes in the traditional sense. Though they may also count on mana sight, so the convergence points of circuits may be valid. We also know some at least can cast in this style due to glowing eyes of some of the beasts.
The temple of the throat - This one is more uncertain, but I believe it is valid that they are wordcasting, in the simple manner they are able to do at the very least. Sometimes you see a beast let our a cry, and magic soon follows. So we can safely assume that this action is tied together in some way.
When I get the chance to examine a creature that is intact, I can test some of these thoughts. Who knows, they may have a convergence point that mortals do not have. This could be a breakthrough in casting if we can replicate and add in another temple. Though this is just wild speculation at the very least.
