Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Excellent!" *walks to the podium at the center of the room while grabbing a large tuning fork from a nearby table*
*He attaches that to a rod and the assembled piece fits nicely into an opening in the podium*
*Releases aura in concentrated bursts and draws crystals to grow on his hands, creating clear gauntlets ending in precise tips*
*At a swift motion three little grey speckled crystals rise from the shelves and drop into the vat, very soon a light fog covers the ground*

"This is one talent that I don't need Zal's assistance with...I doubt you have ever seen something like this before.."

"Feel free to sit if you wish" * At two clicks from the gauntlets a chair made from blue crystals rises from the fog.*

"Think of it as something straight from nature. The elves used to do this with trees. I figured it out and now I do the same with crystals."

*with a swift kick, he vibrates the fork, and touches the needlepoint tips of two fingers to the ends. The sound emitted changes from a low hum to a high pitch frequency. Dreiyan touches those two fingers to his throat and the crystal creation began.*
*Dreiyan began to sing, his voice altered past recognition by the hyperresonance into something ethereal and magical sounding.
*the singing had no words*
*but the raw meaning and emotion could be felt in every note*

*The fog vibrated with the music and carried the sound faster than dry air, it carried it to the walls of crystal which opened and closed various hollows, re shaping the vibrations, and they added their own piece to the song.*

*Several crystals rose from their growing solutions and let the music flow through them changing the music and adding their own voice.*

*At the center Dreiyan stood as he brought forth three crystals of the most vibrant emerald green. The music flowing from him changed pace and the crystals changed their pace with it.*

*Opening both eyes just barely, as he continued to sing the otherworldly song, he began to work with the crystals bit by bit his tones, pitch, vibrations, crescendos and minuendos, all mimicked by the room, shaped the crystals together as if they were living things.*

*A now perfectly round orb floated just in front of him. The music slowly faded from his voice and the room let it fade away. Everything was returned to its place, a peaceful silence prevaded the room.*

"How was that for different?"

((sorry took so long to post, had to come up with this as I went))

*Takes the lotus tenderly and wraps it in a crystal sheath.* " Very beautiful. You can with a little practice, it's a little tricky since, in most cases, the crystals aren't alive. Very handy if you can master it.
" Your gift still needs a final tweak and then you may have it forever. Come with me to the entrance room please!" *They exit the room and as the door shuts the constructs emerge from the walls to clean, absorb the power still in the air to still function,...and learn.*

*sets the orb in the center of the floor crystal and at a gesture a construct activates the northern window, letting in pure, concentrated moonlight stored over a few weeks* "Oh it gets much better, its not your personal crystal yet..." *the orb begins charging, moonlight plays over its emerald surface with a life of its own* "This part will be over relatively fast."

*As the orb charges with moonlight it begins to hum and resonate. the light seems to gather at the center where something is forming*
"Ah any second now"
*The orb hums and resonates faster and faster and it seems to reach a critical point, the moonlight is now close to daylight in brightness*
"Decor Exsisto existo! Runes Strenuus!"*A bright flash of light, and there sits a shining emerald orb, an image of growing ivy can be seen at the center*
*Deactivates the window and picks up the orb.*
"One final step and its finished, release a bit of your aura please."
*one hand holding the orb the other hand held some distance away, he forms a chain of concentrated aura between the orb and his left hand*

"Very good" *extending the chain so that the middle was right in front of Alice* "Concentrate your aura near your hand and grab the chain at the middle please."

*The chain began to lose Dreiyan's bright red aura color as he slowly faded it out while drawing more of Alice's into the chain, very soon it matched the crystal in color and brightness.*

"So beautiful" *he slowly brings the orb closer to Alice until it rested in her hand*

"Congratulations the crystal is now bonded to you and only you. It is yours!"*releases the orb and it gives off a sudden vibration, then stills as it synchronizes with Alice*

"It will glow brighter when it is near you, makes a handy flashlight."*smiles*
"Hope you like it"

*smiles in complete rapture* "This is the best part of my work. I love seeing the reciever's reaction! You are most certainly welcome. Its endowed with quite a bit of earth element so just having it in your room combined with your affinity for nature, will make your ivy and any other plants you have grow like crazy." *finally lets the crystal gauntlets break and shatter, dissolving into thin air, these left no aromas behind*
"Don't worry about breaking it, it won't shatter under normal circumstances."
