"Hmm, well that sounds fun. Making a bunch of those could probably help control a battlefield, I'd wager."
“Ah, I thought you'd misheard, it transforms your own hand, making it tougher and stronger.”

"Ah, that explains it--you had me on living stone. Well, in that case it is far less useful, but still not bad. The wall would probably be the best one for crowd control then."

“Oh, I almost forgot, I do have another new spell, but it’s still on the scroll I bought from the Altanians...I haven’t tried to learn and scribe it yet, as the new spellrunes I’m studying to expand my abilities will only just fit on the surfaces I have left. I imagine that spell is more like what you were thinking of, as it brings forth an arm of earth from the ground to grab things, but only in soft surfaces like earth, mud, grass, or sand. I think there was a more advanced version too, which works in any natural surface, but it was for the moment outside my ability...though we could probably just extrapolate from the spell I did get to develop it.”

"Hmm, must have been a lucky guess," Claudia laughs.

"Yeah, that's a lot. More than I have brothers and sisters combined. Though more Nymphs should try having brothers--they're very sweet and kind, yet strong. I love my brothers so much. I wish I wasn't such a burden to them though...like the time they had to attack a king when he kidnapped me..."
"No wonder they're so worried about you being kidnapped," Vasha says. "Not all men are that bad though. Ammon for instance is very nice, though I'm sure you're aware of that. There was a man I met on Arris when I was a slaver there who was sweet and caring... at least he was before..."

Meanwhile Vasha has moved to massaging Helena's neck and arms.

"Yes, sadly--I was fairly young back then. It would probably be even worse now--my effect is stronger than it was then."

"Before? Never mind, it sounds like it may be a sad tale, so no need to dredge up bad memories,"
Helena decides, relaxing to the feeling of the mystical hands.

"On Arris, I was a risk to others just by their being around me. I convinced him to give one of his slaves a chance, and she turned me in, and they... did things to him," Vasha says, as she works the arms a bit more, including the hands. "So, I guess I understand your predicament pretty well. We have both been wanted for what we are, not who we are."

“I guess so,” Tiberius chuckles. “Well, I suppose I’d better tell you something about the academies first...since you looked most excited by those. Let’s see, I went to Avani, where I took a classes in Enchantement and Illusion, Erilan where I studied Transmutation, and Isyln where I went to a class on Creation magic. It was all very interesting, but far more theoretical and geared towards pure research, than the way we’re taught. I’d really like to go back there some day though with you, and see fully what they have to offer, as there are some interesting ideas they’re playing around with...though I’ll have to teach you Altanian first, dear heart.”

"Oh, I see..." Helena nods, although the movement is more like a languid stretch of the head based on how she's lying, "I'm so sorry, Vasha...I know how it feels when your love hurts somebody that you care about. It feels terrible, like one of the worst things imaginable."
