[In a forest clearing, roughly an hour's walk from the village's edge, one can find Yuan. After a conversation with Guy, he realized he really doesn't know all that much about Luceti's magic, which is why he's started a small experiment; Can Filial magic be combined with magic spells from back home to improve its power? He's hoping that with the

[Rydia enjoys wandering far from town; in the forest, she's able to pretend she's not a prisoner, at least as long as she avoids getting closer to the barrier. There was no goal to her wandering this time, merely following her whim of the moment.

She walks in the vicinity of the clearing, when the crackle and the sharp lightning bolt catch her attention. Curious, she wanders over and inspects the person found within.]

That was your doing, yes? Do you mind if I watch?

[Yuan didn't think he'd approached by a curious woman, but he certainly wasn't expecting her to ask something like that. He'll just lower his weapon, looking slightly confused.]

You have an interest in magic?

[eidolon_soul]

[Rydia nodded politely.]

Yes. I have learned some magic in my world, and a little from the spirits here. But I'm always interested in seeing the magic of those from other worlds, too.

[So what if she knew lightning magic already. This man did it differently, and that was what was so fascinating to her.]

[fortunefail]

You won't be able to do more than watch. This magic is limited to people from my world.

[Well, technically it's even limited to people with elven blood from his world. But that just makes it worse.]

[eidolon_soul]

[She shrugs, not bothered by that announcement.]

That's fine. I have enough power of my own, I'm just curious about other kinds.

[Right, intros.]

I'm Rydia of Mist.

[He's silent for a short moment. It's been a year, but he still hasn't gotten used to how civil some people are to him, in this place.]

... I'm Yuan.

[She nodded politely, then thought to ask one more thing before being quiet so he could resume his training.]

When you said it was limited to people of your world...do you mean by bloodline or race?

[Action]

[fortunefail]

Race. Only those with elven blood can manipulate mana to cast spells.

[Well, there are exceptions... But those are completely unnatural circumstances.]

[Action]

[eidolon_soul]

[She perked up a little at that.]

Ah. I met another who spoke of elven blood, some time ago. You might be from the same world, then. With mine, it's mostly bloodlines, but random talent has been known to happen...very rarely.

[Somehow, the thought of her having spoken to another person from his world isn't surprising. There's a lot of them around Luceti, after all. He gives a curt nod, not quite what to say to that.]

I see.

[Action]

[eidolon_soul]

...at least when it comes to Summoning. Other magic is different.

[She smiles, now a bit sheepish.]

I shouldn't keep you from your training. If it's alright, I'll just watch from a safe distance.

[Action]

[fortunefail]

... Alright.

[He lifts his weapon again, getting ready to resume training. He'll just be spellcasting like before, trying to strengthen it with Filial magic. A little awkward now that there's someone watching, but he'll manage nonetheless.]
