[QUOTE="tglassy, post: 7023120, member: 6855204"] [sblock=Dariana] "You wish to know what it is you will be learning?" the woman said with a smile, leading Dariana to an out of the way spot, not out of sight of others, but where they wouldn't be overheard. She held out a hand, a fire igniting within it. "You can learn to control the elements," she said as the fire snuffed out, and with a swirl, a stream of water appeared in her hand, forming in to a ball. It spun, then sprouted into a starlike pattern, which she then froze into an icy star. "You can learn to give life," she said as her hand glowed with energy, "Or to take it," and the energy in her hand turned dark. "Communing with nature, enhancing yourself, even transforming into other creatures is not outside your grasp. Magics are only part of what they teach, though even that would be enough. You want to hone your body to the point where few could stand against you? Where your weapon becomes a mere extension of your body? Halcyon is the place you can do that. "But it is not easy getting in. Even talented individuals who study their whole lives for this moment are not guaranteed to be accepted. Nearly half the students who leave on that ship in the morning will come back to this port empty handed. Or dead. It is something you should take seriously, lest you fall prey to your own hubris." Her tone softened. "I don't know why, but I like you. You strike me as someone who is determined, who can do great things, if only given the chance. I only wanted to warn you of the dangers you will face, to make sure you were prepared. I could help you prepare, but if you do not feel you would need help, then I would leave you alone..." she looked at Dariana with a question in her eyes.[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
