Message: <blockquote data-quote="Aaron L" data-source="post: 3080121" data-attributes="member: 926">Some spells may involving calling upon beings of power and be entreating powers for thier magic (ala Agamotto and the Vishanti, as has been said.)Other spells may involve sounds that are intrinsically powerful when combined with other components, and then they arent "talking" to anyone (except maybe the universe itself, as you said.)Still other spells may be using vocalizations as foci or timing instruments to measure out a cadence needed for proper completion of the spell.  There are lots of possible reasons for verbal components, and I dont like thinking that all spells work the same way, draw upon the same power, or have the same rational behind thier casting method.  I'd like to think that all the reasons everyone has given are equally true, for different spells.</blockquote>
