Of course. The more the merrier, isn't it? Especially when board games are involved. Thank you for attending and my apologies for the little...predicament....we seem to be in. I do hope you won't hold it against me.
Mmmm...I suppose it would depend? There are quite a few elements at work right now. And I am curious if this entire room was manifested magically or if we were simply transported? At any rate, it is not a small feat.
Oh magic is quite complicated. Some things may come easier to some and harder to others. Some people are more naturally gifted with their magic while others require sturdy and practice. Magic in the wrong hands, especially uneducated ones, can be quite dangerous to the user and others alike. A school for it is simply practical.
I understand, though. Spiritual power can be pretty dangerous, too, even if it's not the same as magic. I guess that's why there's so many methods of study for it. There's probably more than one school for magic, too, right?
Oh certainly. There is even another magic school on the same island as ours. It may seem like it, but magical ability is not actually terribly common where we are from.
If magic is real, it's a super rare ability. There's enough some people who believe that spiritual power is just magic, but there's even more that believe neither are real at all.

This is real magic, right? This is the coolest thing I've ever seen!

Date: 2025-02-27 02:48 am (UTC)Still....I do have to admit, from an academic perspective, the magic that must have gone into this IS fascinating.

You know, I think Idia spends more time telling me what isn't magic than what is...
[maya isn't even going to bring up her visits with kalim being mostly to help him clean]
