Anima, Aura, Breath and Psyche: Mundane Magic Signup

[ohaiyo_isekai]

(A note appears on the bulletin board, in neatly handwritten print:)

To my fellow Editors:

It is a fact of supreme importance to me that I am still capable of the feats of evocation that I became capable of on Mundus. I am both curious to know if others could learn them as I did, and know more than one person for whom it would be of practical use in self defense and the protection of others.

For these reasons, I am offering to teach the practice of arcane magic as it is taught on Mundus to anyone capable of using it with full awareness of the risks.

I would like to meet a week from tomorrow, on the 16th, in the Changing Room - hopefully as a garden. If you are interested, sign below. If you have any questions, leave them.

Sincerely yours,

- Hikaru Aozora

[Erich has always been a disaster at anything that could be classified as magicks (or, well, magic as this person calls it) but already being in a place like that instead of being home is... well, it's worth giving things a try, right?]

Greetings, Hikaru Aozora. I am quite interested in your offer. That being said, how can someone tell if they have any sort of potential in that sense?

I know I do have some basic abilities but I'm not exactly 'gifted'. I will certainly attend, though.

Erichthonios -

I have practiced my Spirit Sight. I will be able to see the strength and affinity of your Aura, and possibly to guess how much Breath you can store and meaningfully use. If you're here, you should be accumulating some just from respiration.

光

I am not entirely sure what that means, but I shall be avaiable for any testing. As for 'how much Breath' I can hold, a lot I suppose... I am larger than most of the current 'residents'.

“” is simply a glyph (“kanji” is the technical term) for my first name, to be read as “Hikaru” in my case. Ask me about it later, as speaking and writing in a second language is useful for a mage.

As for your capacity, breath is not quite the same thing as Breath (or more properly Pneuma, or a dozen other terms related to breathing), but this is better demonstrated than explained.

I do admit I merely copied it. 光. I will address you properly as Hikaru, then. And I would not be against learning a new language, quite the contrary.

I will look forward our formal meeting, then.
