This wiki does seem to suffer from a misunderstanding of what an etymology is, however.  If the origin of the word as a part of the language is not desired, then the heading should be changed to "origin".  Stating that a spell called "holy" appears in a game related to the series is not an etymology, as it does not explain where the word itself came from, only this one particular use of it to name something within a specific context, and which does not conflict with its usual meaning.}}

Very sorry to intrude, but Heartless can't use Holy magic.  Just because one was born of such spells and they cast ''similar'' looking magic does '''not''' mean it is that magic.  Oh, and for etymology, only the origin of the ''spell'' is included.  Seriously dude, we all know the meaning of the word ''holy''.  On this wiki, we don't put etymology for the meaning of words that are known by sentinent indiviuals.  {{The Inexistentsig}}

{{Chris|text=It is a suggested revision.  Point about heartless taken.  The section has been deleted from the specimen.
The origin of the spell should be labelled "origin" then, and not "etymology".}}
