[buildyourworld]

What: Tieria organized a mass training session, hideous ensues?
Rating: Violence, language, more violence




If you made your way to the location, you're already one step closer upon completing your training because this part of the beach is the furthest away from any settlement or port and also the hardest to find. You probably found it by following other heroes' trail, or you're those who stumbles around until you found it or you're actually one of those who went scouting before the actual day.

Either way, congratulation for making it this far ( puns completely intended ). Surrounding the rocky beach is an even rockier cliff. Be careful not to stumble or you will find yourself in need of healing. Thankfully, there are Kings ready to make a guinea pig out of your healing needs around. Your training will be held on the round rock-carved deck overlooking the beautiful sea or on the less rocky stretch of the beach, depending on your Trainer's choice. If you're lucky, your Trainer might even have you hike up that rocky cliff. You may even treat yourself to Caissa's fantastic sunset if you made it up there in time!

In any case, once you've arrived at sunrise ( or rather when the sun has risen sufficiently over the horizon because you're that bad with direction or has no sense of time ) and is done catching your breath, you will come to a notice pinned on the tall fences that tells you to tie a ribbon ( in the buckets, also tied to the fence ) corresponding to the training you wish to partake in on your arm.

Stamina ( GREEN ) ✽ Endurance ( ORANGE ) ✽ Weapons ( BLUE ) ✽ Magic ( PURPLE )

The notice will also instructs those who volunteers to be Trainers to tie a different set of ribbons, with black stripe over the four corresponding colors, on their arm to help differentiate them and the course(s) they're instructing. Of course, if you turn out to be a terrible Trainer, Tieria will rip that ribbon off you and very possibly shoves you into the sea.

There are no training weapon available because you're supposed to bring your own magic weapon.
If you forgot, you can either run back for it or pick a different course.

There's also a clause in very bold red letters that forbid killing. Break it and you will be broken in return.

Are you done tying those ribbons? Then what are you waiting? Get moving!





(( OOC: Please indicate in your top level if your character is a Trainer (which course are they instructing?) or Trainee.
eg.: Harry Potter | TRAINER - MAGIC
eg.: Severus Potter | TRAINEE - EVERYTHING PLEASE

Feel free to mingle around! Make friends, frenemies and even better, rivals! ))

[Think about what he wants to create. It would take time to master but... But he really feels like he can manage this. That he can apply this to his weapon as well. It relies on the same sort of concept, he's seen that with others here.

Channel his mana outward and have it form a spell.

He mimics what Tieria did earlier. To hold his hand out. Nothing happens right away, of course. There's no way it could. Still, he focuses and he thinks hard on what he wants. An element to protect. But he doesn't want to do fire. It just...isn't something he's drawn to. It seems like if he's not careful he might actually make an enemy suffer with that.

So, he focuses on wind. It takes time before something like...a breeze happens.

It startles him so much that he ends the spell with a gasp, eyes wide as he stares at his own hand. Like he's trying to figure out if that really came from him.]

[ Tieria knows how hard it cast the first spell successfully since he too struggled with it until Sion mentors him. Before that, no matter how much he reads up on it didn't help one bit. That's when he realizes that everyone comprehend magic differently. But in Shin-Ah's case, at least he's already aware of it, it saves him the headache of explaining magic because frankly, he's not sure if he could.

Watching him concentrates, Tieria doesn't interrupt and instead allows him ample time to find his pace. When he feels the breeze from the Knight's palm, he smiles. ]

You did it. Wind magic. [ He lets the fireball floats off his palms and starts explaining more now that Shin-Ah has successfully channel his magic. ] To form magic properly, first you need to focus on your channeling your mana, which you just did. But it won't take form properly without an incantation or gestures to focus it into shape.

[ This time, he shows Shin-Ah, casting a tier one wind spell so he could learn from watching him. Tieria uses the scientific formula of kinetic movements to cast, although to Shin-Ah, it probably sounds like he's reading nonsense. But the moment he completes the formula, a wisp of wind forms around him. ] It can be any words or gestures, or even a combination of both, it's up to you to decide. Make sure it's something you can remember because you must use the same one every time you cast the spell. The more spells you learn, the more incantations and gestures you have to remember.

[ ((ooc: his eyes switches to gold when he cast)) ]

[Shin-Ah watches the spell. The words mean nothing to him and he knows he wouldn't remember them. Honestly he's glad that Tieria mentioned that he can use gestures because he's not sure he'd really be one to use anything else. Gestures are easier for him, far easier than remembering to use his words. Even if he is trying to talk more around Tieria at the very least to practice for reading.]

Gestures...

[He looks at his own hands. He hasn't noticed the eyes quite yet, having been distracted with really trying to learn this. Since Tieria is willing to take the time to really teach him, he wants to show him that he's worth that time and effort.

What does he want this first spell to do? What does he want it to accomplish? Thinking about that, he works to form all the details. A shield. One that pushes the enemies back. One that is made of wind. Isn't enough though? Enough details? He frowns a little before he speaks. Tieria would want him to ask rather than just not say anything.]

Do spells...need lots of details? To work right?
