Kibo: I guess you ran it fast enough. Next lesson.
He reaches into his bag, pulling out a large book, strangely twice the sixe of the bag itself. He tosses it at Natasha's feet.
Kibo: Read this. Every word, every line. Once you do that, you'll have enough understanding of the spirit world, Necromancy, and the nature of the soul to actually be useful as a Necromancer.

"Are you serious?"
Natasha asks, sitting in front of the book, her hand on it's cover.

"hey, hey, easy does it, I just prefer to have fun, rather than being a stuck up socialite" auron says, crossing his arms and turning away from storm as he yawns "besides, the places where I hang out are taverns and a few unmentionable places, all of which do not require good social skills" auron says, sighing as he looks across the water "but you know, this town needs some livening up, it has become quite dull as of late"

Kibo: Yep. Summoning a spirit is a lot more than just snapping your fingers. There are many mental preparations and actions that should be performed. And you'll know what said preparations are once you read that.

Natasha sighs, opening the book and beginning to read.
....An hour later she turns over the last page of the book, and looks up at Kibo, while lying on her front. As if to say, "Now what?"

((Yeah. Now, instead of making up random things, I can just have him tell her to refer to random lessons.))
Kibo: Hrm, just an hour? You sure are a quick reader... Well, I guess that's all the preparation, then. Now for the practice.
He stand up, offering her a hand.
Kibo: Alright, lesson one. Manifesting spirits.
He steps a few yards away, and draws a rune marking in the ground with his sword.
Kibo: Alright, remember Lesson 1.4? Just put your hands on the marking, and follow those directions.

(O....kay...not quite sure what to do here....but I'll give it a go.)
Natasha places her hands on the marking as instructed and closes her eyes, concentrating.
Part of her soul tears away from her body and through the rune, Natasha's eyes snap open, suddenly able to see hundreds of usually unseen spirits around her. Concentrating on the nearest one, a young girl, she makes her [the spirit] appear very slightly visible.
Anyone with no skill for necromancy would be able to see just a faint wispy form.
The part of her soul returned to her body as if pinging back on a length of elastic, however the spirits remained in her sight.

Kibo claps politely.
Kibo: Very nice. First time I tried summoning a spirit, I almost blew up Farind's ship. Hence why I brought you to this field. But that was quite impressive, for a first try. Soon you'll be able to do it without exposing pieces of your own soul. I'm impressed.

Storm sighes.
"And here I was hoping we'd get the joy of starting some place other then square one. Oh well, can't be having everything in life, can you?"
She shrugs, sitting down cross-legged before Auron on the rail.
"Just because someplace does not require adept socialites does not mean you will not be having such skills, siyo? First step is relizing the need of said skills. Why would you want to be a 'stuck up socialite,' as you so quaintly put it?"

Natasha smiles, staying silent, and sitting down on the ground.

Kibo: Alright try it again. But this time, try and do it without using part of your own soul.

Natasha looks around, focusing on a different spirit, this time a young boy. Concentrating on him, she makes him visible...not as well as Kibo, but better than the whispy form she manifested a couple minutes earlier.

Kibo: No!!
He snaps his fingers, and the spirit disappears as soon as it had come into sight.
Kibo: Careful, Nats. Don't try to manifest human spirits just yet. If you make a mistake, you can cause serious damage to the soul itself. Practice on animal spirits first.

Natasha looked at him.
"You could've told me that before!"

Kibo: I had thought I did. Pardon. Well, just... don't use human souls... Not yet.
