“Not exactly. I can’t create it, but I can greatly enhance its rate of development, such as accelerating plant growth.”
-
[i]"Interesting. Can you reverse the effects too?"[/i]
-
“Things naturally turn back without my help, but no, I can’t de-age or kill things with it. That would be my cousin’s ability.”
-
[i]"Who's your cousin?" [/i]
-
“A fellow of autumn, the lord of winds that send red leaves tumbling downwards.”
-
[i]"So he's, like, a nature magician too?" [/i]
-
“Let’s call it that.”
-
[i]"So what's he specialize in?" [/i]
-
“The inevitable, death and taxes.”
-
[i]"Taxes?" [/i]
-
“He is the most vile and repugnant of creatures after artificial life made from iron, a politician.”
-
[i]"Riiight..." [/i]
-
“I spend my time mostly as a tutor, teacher, and potion maker, though occasionally I’ll make some scrolls or deal with a problem directly.”
-
[i]"You're a teacher?" Natalie asked, perking up slightly. [/i]
-
“Yes. I teach aspiring mages, for a price, and recently traveled here because I heard it was in need of such a teacher.”
-
[i]"Alright. Whats your price?" [/i]
-
“It depends a great deal on what I’m teaching. What do you want to learn?”
-
[i]"Something that will make me powerful. If you can, I wish to learn something related to fire, or healing perhaps." [/i]
-
“Power. Yes I can indeed grant that. Healing is also a specialty of mine, though fire is one of my weaker subjects.”
-
[i]"Then please, teach me to heal." [/i]
-
“Alright. Come back tomorrow and we’ll begin your training. I’ll need a bit of time to round out a lesson plan and draw up a contract.”
-
[i]"Alright." With that said, Natalie finished her yes and left the building. [/i] [spoiler]End, or skip until tomorrow? [/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]We can skip, but I’ll be a little bit. [/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Kk. I'll let you kick it off when you want to. [/spoiler]

The next day...
