"Alright, I think that's enough training for one day," Valkery said taking a rapier in its sheath from the wall and belting it about her waist. "It's time to have a talk with this Karass fellow of your's."

Valkery nodded. "We should start heading back to camp," Valkery said. She glanced around her eye's falling on her hat and the bloodstained silver pin that she had dropped in the fight. She got up gingerly and picked her way around the corps of the corrupted orc. She picked up the pin and cleaned...

Valkery tightened her jaw as she felt the needle working on the back of her head. When he had finished stitching she took a breath, relaxing as she handed him a roll of bandages to help wrap up the wound. "I had an encounter with the cult in Alliria. Eleanor came back to her parents house with...

As Tyto continued to practice meditation Valkery moved around the room tidying up a bit before grabbing a book from the desk and a quill. She sat down at the table in front of a set of vials with different colored liquids in them. Using a small silver spoon she took different powders and added...

Relief washed over Valkery as she looked up at Trajan and saw warmth in his eyes, "Thank you," she muttered as what little strength she had left drained out of her and she leaned into Trajan to keep from falling. "I should sit... Do you know how to stitch a wound?" She breathed. It was all she...

Valkery smiled and nodded, "That is your aura. With practice you should be able to sense the aura's of other people and the space around you. For now I would advise you not trying to sense aura's in combat situations until you are comfortable enough with it to be able to do it without thinking...

Valkery smiled. This kids spirit was so pure, she hoped nothing snuffed that out but world was rarely ever so kind. "Alright," She nodded "Let's get started then. Aura is everywhere and most people are constantly absorbing this information without knowing it. Our bodies don't know how to...

A nostalgic smile lingered on Valkerys face as she watched Tyto try to see aura. When he asked her to teach him how to see aura her lips tightened and she stared at the flickering light of the candle for a moment. This young man has such a wonderful light, learning aura magic could intensify it...

This kid was perceptive, that would an asset in sensing aura. Valkery straitened "I'm ok, I broke my ribs a couple of weeks ago. They are healed now, I just sill haven't gotten back to peek fitness." She suspected that the injuries she had sustained from the void aura were also influencing her...

"I have more effective ways of making you buff, if that is your goal," Vlakery chuckled. She leaned back in her chair and stared out the window with tired eyes. She sighed, her chest feeling tight again. She had almost fully healed from her broken ribs but her body was sill adjusting. Forty...

"The second law is called Magics End. This one is simple, basically all magic has an end, the duration of the effect is proportional to the cost. Think about the candle example. The candle will only burn for as long as the wax lasts. Most of the effects of aura magic only last a couple of...

Valkery nodded "You're getting the hang of this. The cloth can only pick up so much soot before it is unable to pick up anymore. We can only hold onto and process so much aura at a time. In addition to that aura residue is constantly decaying. Residue like this only lasts twenty-four hours...

Valkery scoffed, though there was some humor hidden beneath it. "How would you know what lacking a soul looks like? Life aura is not the soul itself, it is only produced by the soul, binding it to the body. However, I would not advise using soul aura, it drains your stamina and endurance and if...

Alright, so functionally the kid didn't know anything. "There are five laws of magic. It is important that one learns and understands these laws before attempting any kind of magic, even something as simple as using enchanted items or basic tricks. The laws represent the limitations of magic, If...

Valkery nodded. It was a hard question she had asked him, one that had taken years for herself to answer on her own. She wished she could give him the time to figure this stuff out at a natural pace, but if she was going to teach him, she needed to be sure that knowledge was not going to fall...
