Alma began to smile at student Mayleen’s tide of questions.<br/>“Slow down there student, I can only answer so many questions at once.”  Alma placed down the half finished owl, and began explaining.<br/>“I see through magic, a spell known as Clairvoyance.  It’s a form of mind magic, usually the spell is very difficult, and shows you a wide area far away.  I made a modified version, far easier to maintain over long periods, and centered around myself.  As exchange, the spell only shows my immediate surroundings.  They all appear as colorless forms, with precise details like etchings on coins being blurred.<br/>“The closest name to my magic would be inertia, as my magic comes from the dragon I originally raised.  The most common name for these powers are magic, however sorcery is also common.  I have command of ice, dark, and mind magic.”  Alma then motioned towards Mayleen.<br/>“You are what is known as a natural, capable of using magic without aid of another being.  Your dragon will enhance those powers, but you will likely be more powerful than others in the end.”  Alma’s smile fades slightly.<br/>“People often fear those with abilities they don’t understand.  Do not blame them for that, it is natural to fear what is unknown.  I will not harm you, I want nothing but to see you all succeed.  Wanting to protect those you love is a good reason to fight.  Use that drive to push yourself.  Everyone needs a reason to exceed yourself.”<br/><br/>Alma laughed when Motto jumped up.  This one was very energetic.<br/>“Calm down student Motto, there will be plenty of time to learn.  Yes, you can share your warmth, but we will be learning many more effective means of warmth later.  It all depends on the dragon you have.  For now, prepare for the trip.”<br/><br/><br/><br/>Come morning, Alma was sleeping in the chair he had been sitting in.  Upon being awoken by the inn keeper, he picked up his bag and walked into the main pub area, waiting for all to arrive.
