"Close. I am 24. In my old world, magic users study until they are like around 30 or 35. Perhaps we don't age like you do. We generally live around 250 to around 300 years old. Children from my world know about magic since they grew up with it so to be speak. Many have a touch of magic but nothing more then levitating or a bit of telekenetics. Maybe a bit of mind speak but not much more than that.<br/>Some like me have the potential to learn a lot of magic on our own but if we go to the special academies such as I did, I have been in school since I was 5. I was taken away from my parents who were given money and some land as well as other items when they took me away.<br/>I have lived to learn all my life and all I have learned is reading writting arithmetic history and sciences. That is besides magic. I know many signs and great many spells are stored in my head.But I doubt that i have any use for it anymore. I shall miss it.......<br/>Perhaps I could write about a young lad who does magic? Would you read it and tell me if it is good enough for the children of your world?' Sebastian asked as he thought out loud for a bit.<br/><br/>"We write on papyrus and it is hard to make just time consuming is all. I make it for my studies each summer. I make a great many sheets from plant fibers and tree fibers so that i have more then enough for schooling. Have you ever tried a pipe? That way you don't have to burn the paper....." Meredith asked quietly.
