[ The feed turns on to show a dark-skinned young man with a rain of freckles all over his skin. he looks nervous, unable to keep eye contact with the camera for more than a few minutes at time. ]

Um, I... um... I was wondering? Is there a library like the one on one of the moons down here in Lunatia? Or... uh... a library at all? I haven't really been able to find one.

[ His voice is soft, the accent a strange mix of german and french. A white ferret lies around his shoulders, peering at the camera with intelligent black eyes as the young man tries to explain himself. ]

There were... books with spells and things. Some very strange automatons, too, but I could really do without those. Magic in this place... it's really interesting.

[ The more he speaks, the less hesitant it gets, as he gets into the things that interests him. ]

My world... doesn't really have this technology stuff so it's... it's a big difference. Since I don't really have anything to compare that to, I'm more interested in the magic. The prismals said something about it being the same, though, but I don't really understand how.

[ Connie catches himself rambling and looks a bit sheepish. ]

S-sorry, I'll make my point. Is there a library down here? If there isn't, is there any other place to find... um... I don't know... comparisons? I don't know. I'm just curious.

Sorry if I'm taking up your time!

Skill trees? That's a pretty way to describe it... and branches, too. I know about necromancy, but I don't know what primal and spirit is. It sounds interesting, though.

[ He's not sure what to say about the 'circle' thing, because it seemed strange that they were other things in the south. ]

Well... I'm... I'm glad you don't mind. [ Pause. ] The little magic moonblessings here is definitely weaker than the magic from home, but I'm sure that people without magic find it new and strange. It's... not really like a spell, either. At least not for me?

It's quite visual as well, probably why we compare magical schools to trees. I suspect the way we use necromancy in my world is probably different from what most people think it is in their world, the conclusion is that I raise the dead which isn't the case. Primal magic is elemental magic and spirit magic are more passives like barriers.

[His world isn't an overall accepting place where magic is concerned.]

It's true I don't consider them spells personally, I'm not certain what I'd qualify these as other than gifts, a talent granted to us by these Moonblessings.

Oh, that makes sense.

If you don't raise dead, is it necrotic damage or something? I... I mean I think I know a bit about the magic schools, but I only had a week or so of actual training. Elemental magic sounds like evocation, though.

[ He's so interested, sorry Dorian. He might not be a wizard, but he's still smart. ]

It's a strange addition. I mean, they're all really strange, but the little abilities are almost the strangest. I don't like that I don't quite know how to control it, either.

[ Connie has enough problems with that already! ]
