Ah yes. She first talks to the flames first, and then from the books learns it’s forbidden magic. My interpretation was “oh, here are books that explain the thing I was learning on my own” and considering that Keigetsu gets proficient enough at it to body swap and contact Reirin at will, I just assumed her dad’s books were more of the “Black Magic for Dummies” variety. But it’s totally possible the notes were “Earth/Fire/Water/Air magic = good. Black magic = bad.” and she learned everything on her own.
I may be misremembering, but I thought she learned to talk to the flames on her own and read later in her dads books that it was taboo.

That is what was said in the episode. Question is were those books “Rules of the empire” or “Black Magic for Dummies”. Both could have a warning about magic being forbidden.
