Version 2

= Synopsis

When a [[magus]] (henceforth called ''parens'', fem. "mater") takes a [[Gift]]ed apprentice, opens his [[Arts]], teaches him [[Hermetic]] [[Magic]], and confirms him into the [[Order of Hermes]], this individual is called his '''filius''' (fem. filia). Until he has taken the [[Hermetic Oath]], a filius is merely the apprentice of his master. It is only after his confirmation that he becomes a filius.

= Miscellanea

The [[Code of Hermes]] specifically covers the [[parens]]-filius-relationship through various sections.

In Latin, filius means "son". The filius is the Hermetic son of his Hermetic father.
