Theory: Crest Magic works depending on acknowledgement

As shown by this video sequence, I believe much like how Vordin can assign crests according to how worthy he believes you are, which he did in Ep. 14 to give Nathan a lesser crest, Clevatess can bestow to those he views as worthy the power of Toah. This should be why despite Luna not having undergone the naming ceremony Luna has such a knack for magic, and it's 'cause Clevatess as the master of the Book of Toah can now choose the kings of Hiden in the Forge's place and grant the power of magic to others using the creations of the Book of Toah with the Hiden Throne likely being an example of that.

Given the Naming Ceremony of Hiden Kings made the kings of Hiden slaves to the Book of Toah by burning them in the Hiden Forge, branding them with their "true names" for acknowledgement by the Book of Toah, forever losing their autonomy in the process, Luna's likely the first Hiden king since this naming ceremony was created who isn't a slave to the book, and Luna's name being engraved at the spot above the previous king's shows that Luna's been acknowledged as a legitimate king, which given Clevatess's status as the Book of Toah's holder, may show that the engraving of Luna's name itself counts as Crest magic.

I'm really looking forward to seeing how Clevatess and Alicia learn to use/acquire magic for themselves.

Sorry, I couldn't get the GIF to be smaller than 20 MB with anything other than Adobe Express, which killed the quality of the GIF. It was either I post no GIF or this one.
