[QUOTE="s@squ@tch, post: 3468723, member: 42885"] Hedowin had reached the glass-ceiling at Morgrave University. He recently had a breakthrough on his own, in which he could manifest minor magics without the aid of long, studious sessions in the library. Sorcerers are not uncommon in Khorvaire, but sorcery was seen as something inherent, and not compatible with hours of intense studying of arcane symbols and runes. He advanced his ideas upon his teachers about the intermingling of prepared and spontaneous magics, which they wanted to hear nothing about. Instead, they instructed him to get back to his tomes and books, like a good wizard would. He had practiced each day, trying to find any connection or bridge between his two talents, but so far has come up short -- much like feeling that the answer is there right in front of him but he cannot quite see it. His studies now have been directed (in secret) to gathering more information on any reference in the old tomes to others who pondered the same questions he did. After several weeks of sleeping in the library, he unearthed an odd reference to a "Sargeen", who was ostracized hundreds of years ago for advancing questions similar to his own. After successfully slipping past the wards put in place by the Masters, Hedowin was able to infiltrate the basement record room for the University. It took him several nights to track down the students history -- this "Sargeen" summarily was expelled from the University, was was rumored to head back to his homeland in Q'barra.
