Callista nodded. "Of course. Just let me know when you're ready to learn some of the mind blocks. It will be extra incentive for me to stay out as well."

Valzar sighed, "I know I really should start learning now, but I'm reluctant to leave this pool. I feel more relaxed and at ease here then I have in...a very long time."

Callista giggled. "It has that effect on ponies. That's why I'm up here and not in there. One of us has to stay on guard."

"On Guard?" he questioned resting his head on the side of the pool beside her's. "What do you think would find us here?"

"I don't know, but I'm not taking any chances. I let my guard down once, and look where it got us." She smiled and tried to laugh.

"Well, I'm sitting here ready to divulge ancient secrets to you, and you're sitting there in my favorite pool, relaxed and at ease. And I'm sitting here, content to have someone else to share all these secrets with." She smiled wide. "That in itself is a very funny picture."

Valzar considered this for a moment before pushing himself out of the pool, "Ancient secrets win over momentary comfort..."

Callista burst out in laughter as he got out. "I thought that might help get you out." She sat up and lit some candles with a wave of her hoof. "We'll start with the mind blocks. I think those are the most important right now."

"It's kinda like setting safeguards in your brain. You have to picture weaving them in your head, see the symbols surrounding your mind." She rubbed the back of her neck in thought. "I've never taught anyone to do this before, but I'll do the best I can."

Callista nodded. "Close your eyes and picture your mind in layers. The most important information should be in the furthest layer from the top." She closed her eyes and organized her thoughts like she had told Valzar. "Does that make sense?"

"It's hard to explain. I can show you though, if you'll merge your mind with mine. I have mine organized, and I can go through and do it again while you're watching..."
