Description
Push affects the space in front of the user, and as such does not require a target to be evoked.
It is useless without one though.
If a Dreamer or Mare is standing in front of the user when Push is evoked,
it will move them back a short distance, and interrupt any arts currently being evoked.
It does not deal any damage.
Plateau Effect
Decreased evoke time.

Art History
The first known use of Push was long ago by a young Dreamwright whose name was forgotten. Although he was young he was also very impatient, wanting the respect and authority he thought he deserved. He decided to challenge the Elder Dreamwrights. One Elder Dreamwright in particular laughed at him knowing that this young fool had nothing to back up his grandiose claims. He then challenged this Elder Dreamwright personally. The Elder Dreamwright angrily accepted the challenge and began evoking an art to humiliate this dreamer. However, before he could finish casting his art, The dreamer pushed the Elder to the ground..feet in the air and his concentration ruined. This not only humiliated the Dreamwright, it infuriated him as well. The Elder stood up and began evoking one of his most powerful arts to destroy the dreamer, but as more powerful arts take longer to evoke, The dreamer again quickly pushed him and broke his concentration. This happened over and over again lasting nearly a half-hour. Finally the Elder decided to quit and left in disgust. After this dreamer got wide recognition for his efforts and was finally given the respect and authority he wanted. Now the Art of Push is used by almost every Dreamer.
Notes
Although it is available at orbit 0, Push must be learnt from a teacher, as opposed to other orbit 0 arts which are already known the first time the dreamer enters the city.
