Primal Shadow and More Schools

Bartleby had sang into creation 3 schools: Fire, Ice & Storm. From these grew 3 secondary schools; Myth, Life & Death. And from those, 4 more schools were born; Sun, Moon, Star & Balance. But let's throw Old Cob into the mix. He'd created 1 more school of his own; Shadow. We use all of Bartleby's creations, but let's expand the Triangle of Magic with Shadow; the Pyramid of Magic. The bottom face is the current triangle, just the tip of the iceberg, but then we add Shadow as the top point. We have a lot of schools in play now. Firstly, Balance moves to the centre of the pyramid and stays there, as the balance of all 4 schools. Then we have these:

+...

=Light? Smoke?
=Cold?
=Fear? Emotion?

(+)+(+)=No idea.
+(+)=I was thinking like smoky shadow puppet type things for this, telling stories with different effects for different stories/spells.
+(+)=Tragedy?

(+)+(+)=Evil? (A bit odd, but this is essentially +++, it's going to be dark).
+(+)=A very dark, cold & creepy school.
+(+)=No idea.

(+)+(+)=No idea.
+(+)=No idea.
+(+)=No idea.

12 new schools of magic. That's a lot of thought. I most definitely don't think that all of these should be separate, but at least add the first 3. Of course you can suggest your own thoughts, but I've left mine after the '=' sign. Or instead of those other 9, could just link with all of the other schools, like so:

+...

=Stories? Heritage?
=Darkness? Evil?
=Reality? Vibrance/Vibrancy?

Most likely too (although is for all things, so should be encompassed by this):

=Order? Discord?

And maybe also:

=No idea.
=Mystery?
=No idea.

This narrows the new schools (if implemented) down to 3 (Minimum), 6 (With Spirits), 7 (+), 10 (With Astrals) or 12 (With many complicated links).

So what do you think? Think it should be added? Think it will? Any names? How many schools? Any spells? Or even what pips they use (I think they should work like -enhanced spells, but available to all schools for Training Points & free for the school enhanced [let's be honest, past level 50, training points have only been good for Astrals and they need another use]).

Also, the most crucial question of all; Level 1+ or Level 100+. I think 100+, but do you think there could be a Pyramid of Magic from the beginning. Let me know in a reply!
