[QUOTE="evilash, post: 2163608, member: 8625"] [i]Year of Wild Magic, Marpenoth 5 to Marpenoth 13[/i] We bind the Art in artifacts in your glory my Mistress. Heion and I worked in the laboratory today. [i]Year of Wild Magic, Marpenoth 14[/i] I teach the young to love the art in your name. I spent the entire day at the Lantern Street Orphanage talking to the children and teaching them about the love of magic. The teachers at the school provide many things, but not your blessing. I am sure there are several of them with potential to become wizards and sorcerers. I took it upon me to try and talk to mother Gretchyn about Terrem and his parents, but she seems to evade all my questions this far. Terrem on the other hand is a smart young boy, it would be really interesting if he showed an aptitude for magic when the time comes.
