    I'm with Mfauli on this one. It's a childish choice that's supposed to be cute and funny. But it's an objectively stupid choice.
    The both(?) of you somehow completely forgot that holy magic exists and is explicitly different from mage magic?

    Not surprised, but come on.

    Normally I wouldn't blame you since we haven't seen a priest in over 12 episodes, but Methode pulled a holy scripture out of thin air so she could employ holy magic.

    *shrug* Dunno. Annoyingly, they didn't show the spell selection process for anyone.

    I'm curious if Denken was like, "Do you know a spell that'll resurrect my wife?"

    So why is curing disease Holy magic, but cleaning clothes isn't? They're both purifying magic.

    Seems inconsistent to me.

    One is organic healing, the other is matter distillation.

    Diseases are still made of matter. You're still distilling foreign substances from a medium.

    I simply provided a simple difference at a certain level that makes sense for a story to make a division for it (organic vs inorganic matter, alive vs dead/inanimate). If you reduce anything to its most basic aspects then we are all just atoms.
