Syn sat up as he heard a student not too far from him, was it lunch time already?  Looking at the student he recognized who she was.  Di-Diem.  Strange name for a female but hey, whatever.  Watching her with the apple he could feel the energy around her but she stopped short, no wonder why it was hurting her.  Shaking his head he stood up and walked over to her, putting one hand in his pocket as he flicked the top of her head with his middle finger.<br/><br/>"Stopping a vision short is going to cause a snap in the magic, hence the pain.  Pushing past it, organizing those images and focusing on the source.  The pain will go away and the visions will clear up.  It's all magic so it can't physically harm you.  It'll just give you a headache when you're impatient or afraid.  Spirit users are like Void users.  The magic can turn against you if you rush it or if you cut off too soon.  You need to stay relaxed and focus.  Humans told you it was an illness and we're telling you it's a gift.  conflicting thoughts aren't going to help you here."<br/><br/>Tapping his index finger on the base of her skull he wrapped her mind with a small shadow void to ease the tension in her mind and unlock some of the information about her magic that she'd been taught already, but her mind was having a hard time sorting through thanks to all the negative feed back from humans.  Once that was done he motioned to the apple.<br/><br/>"Try again.  It should be easier now."<br/><br/>This wasn't as boring as sitting in the grass watching the sun go down, so he didn't mind helping her.  That and if she had a bit more confidence in his class, it would certainly help to boost the moral of the kids around her if she was getting closer to the X then they were simply because being bested by a half breed wasn't something they'd be able to tolerate.  Sometimes a little blow to the ego and humility was needed.  Syn spent the remainder of her lunch period teaching her how to work through the images, showing her how to use her skills to her benefit and avoid the pain.  Her physical state had a lot to do with it too.  If she was tired it would be harder to control the images but at the same time, the mind was a powerful tool.<br/><br/>"You're a spirit user, you have the ability to push your own magic through your body and heal yourself.  Everything from bruises to fatal wounds but it requires patience and concentration.  Focusing on the magic and the wounds.  Steady breathing.  You can do that for others as well.  Just push the energy out rather than focusing on yourself.  You have an unlimited source of energy.  Everything around you has spirit energy, anything living.  Focus on that.  Good Spirit users should never run out of energy unless they're surrounded by a void, which is where having allies or other skills come into play."<br/><br/>As lunch ended, Syn reached into a shadow void and pulled a small leather covered book.  Handing it to her he nodded.<br/><br/>"A friend of mine made this.  It's a detailed listing of all the spirit users tricks and tools.  We had to hunt one a few years ago.  Longest damn hunt of my life.  This should help you.  Everything you need to know and how to do it is in there."
