Welcome to Gaia! ::

Alaqua frowned as the teacher basically said she was wrong. Well, at least everyone else's answers were wrong as well, though Raven said that Lucia was close. As the woman went on to expand a bit on the lynx girl's answer, Ala thought for a moment, then ventured, "Pretending...?" She liked to pretend. It was fun to make up things for pretend. It would be neat if pretending was part of magic.

"Closer." For a brief moment Raven felt like she was playing a game of hot and cold with a bunch of children. She shouldn't even have had to work so hard, but a grounding like this would make her work easier in the future. They had to get used to working. Playtime was over.

Not for one girl, it seemed. The one who got close was whispering something to her neighbor. How unfortunate. "Miss Samanier, if you have something to say, please share it with the rest of us."

Lucia blushed " Sorry I said, To imagine what will happen, I think this is as visualizing" she doesn't want look at Ala,Is she mad?, she dont want know. If I wrong Ala won't be mad she think.

That was good enough. "Imagination... yes. That is part of it. But one cannot simply visualize. One must actually see, or hear, or feel something happen. If you can't, your will is lessened, and the effect of your spells will be decreased significantly. Not to mention the fact that the best solutions to any problems often require some creativity."

It was the part of magic Raven struggled with most, not that she would ever admit it.

"Lastly, procedure. Whether it is magic words, or a potion formula, or another ritual, or even just the process of willing something to happen, one must follow a procedure at all times. To deviate is to invite calamity. For example, if one wants to invoke power, but uses the wrong type of wand, they could accidentally heal their enemy." She had seen someone make that very mistake once. It did not end well.

After writing the two terms on the board, Raven returned her attention to the class. "Any questions?"

Gabby had tons of questions and after writing down the last few answers she turned to Raven and began to blab: "I, um, I do have a question about the last thingy! The procedure, is that a general pro-procedure or is it different for every spell and more complicated in some situations?" She talked so rapidly that she choked on some of her words, but continued talking nontheless. "Also, a wand? Will we get one? And will we get classes in using them? So that we won't choose the wrong types?"

She breathed in and began to grin. There, that were some of her most important questions. Of course she could think of another twenty, but for now this was enough. Magic sure was hard! And so much could go wrong too!

Lucía had reason and Ala seems not to be had mad, great. With a great smile she begins to copy in her notebook what the teacher says, 'Imagination more see, hear and fell something happen...' she continuous listening and writing, 'Procedure= magic words, potions, rituals or wands'. Questions? yes she have but is about procedures and think the teacher teach their later, she dont said anything.
