Escree is the power over the mind. It is used for the power of suggestion, to sense another living being, and to feel the moods of people. It is possible to read a person's mind, or at least get a general idea of their thinking patterns, but it takes a lot of practice to perfect.
It takes magic to escree. As most humans don't have magic, they cannot escree. Beasts, being something like a magical creature, have the basic power to feel life's presence and sense another's mood by their own powerful 6 senses. Elves have plenty of magic and time to master escree. They also were the ones to develop it to the point of planting notions in people's heads.
Dragons learned the basics of escreeing from elves. After this, they studied it with more of an eye for its use than just because it was interesting. They developed tactics for how to make concrete thoughts in another's mind that they followed out to its completion as if it was their own thought. How to change what a person sees and plant doubts in minds. From this, they began to discern the thoughts of those they were manipulating. When this happened, it made it possible to plant ideas that no one, not the person being puppeted or their close friends and family, could differentiate from their normal behavior and those forced upon them.
Elves followed this closely, but didn't interfere or come up with anything knew on their own. It was hundreds of years after dragon's had toyed with escree and stopped making progress/grew bored with the study of it that elves picked it back up. They started to twist all the harmful things dragons could do with escree to those that were helpful. You could send feelings through escree with just a little more effort than it took to recieve them and could be used to calm down perilous situations. It could also be used to give, recieve, and subsequentially take, strength from others.
Escree had been kept from humans by elves. Within the last 150 years, they have come upon the knowledge. Dragons had no reason to share and kept it to themselves, but elves who wondered frequently into villages tried to keep this seperate from what they taught. It is unknown how the first humans came into this knowledge, but since then, it has spiraled into a way to make a more vicious war. Humans with magic were sought out and taught in the limited knowledge of escree that grew exponentially in the few years of it's knowledge. These people were sent to battlefields and political meetings to change the outcomes of elections and treaties.
They are currently being used in the current war and there is a direct confrontation between the main characters in CoF and a human escree user. It's unknown how many escree users are being employed in the war and which race they belong.
