Channeling is a way developed by the water priest to channel and handle elemental mana flowing inside beings and things and in the world. 
All water priests are taught in the arts of channeling as it serves a vital part in the teachings of Albila, especially after the death of the god of magic,
Okka. Flows of different types of elemental mana constantly course through the world. With channeling the water priests are able to handle, 
control and change these courses for many various purposes. Death of the god of magic and the War of elements caused great turmoil in these flows 
and trying to uphold balance and getting rid of the many problems caused by the turmoils plays vital part for the tasks of a water priest.

Channeling is not able to cause great changes or effects in the magical flows the effects of channeling are usually because of that not very spectacular or 
great but they are constant and over time can make great things happen. In addition to this skilled channelers are able to bind another spells into their 
channeling and gather arcane energy until they form a critical mass of energy and are released along the channeling. These spellbinded spells can cause
tremendous changes in the elemental energy flows and are the reason why other spellcasters fear and revere the water priest's power. Especially the priests
of Okka, nowadays known as the mages, see them at the same time as their greatest allies and foes as their own magic is affected highly by the magical flows 
of the world. Although there is a certain feeling of betrayal too as water priests inherited some of their magical knowledge and powers and also many priests of Okka 
turned to water after the death of their god.

Channeling requires use of your hands thus water priests are unable to wield anything while channeling spells, not even weaponry specially designed for spellcasters. 
Although high ranking priests trained in the arts of elemental warfare are able to use shield to protect themself as long as they have one hand free for channeling.
