Watching as the child took off, Cyne smiled as Elara finally let her curiosity be satiated. Something he'd enjoyed about having to train others was the teaching aspect. It must have been his scholarly tendencies getting the better of him, but true mastery of a craft was the ability to teach it, as his mother had always told him when he'd complained about the lessons on how to rule.<br/><br/>"Well, the very basics of what us humans consider to be magic stems from what we consider the soul. Our ability to manifest an element in the physical world is the physical representation of our truest selves, the beings we'd be without a mortal coil. It's one of the biggest reasons we'd decided in the beginning to fight your kind," he said, gesturing to her as he spoke, "We'd believed you all to be soulless creatures incapable of morals and essentially humanity. I realize now how humane is a relative term, but not everyone is as open-minded. Now, for the magics that we know exist, there is four. Each is a primal element, fire, water, earth, and air. Everything can be derived from these elements, the plants shoot from the earth with the help of water and sunlight. Lighting is an advanced form of fire, and mighty gusts are but agitated winds. And our element is what connects us to the world. Now, not all humans have magic, and some are weaker at it than others, and that is typically attributed to a frail soul, or a frail body incapable of supporting the soul."<br/><br/>Looking at the beasts as he spoke, he felt a little warmer inside, discussing the basics of magic with her. It was different from teaching a body guard or a class of students, but the essence of passing on the information was still there. Although he'd be lying if he said he would want to be a teacher, he did enjoy the occasional lessen. Explaining the basics helped cement his own knowledge on the subject.
