The Empire of Reimia (3)

The introductory course in magic, Astilbe's private lecture hall, the students from class III who arrived: Linnea, Parfynora, Xenomia, Azarina, Shogo, Berwang, Relgar, Anelotta, Ifeon, Light, Imir, Romeo. More students came to the introductory magic course than to any other lecture before, and this was not surprising: the secrets of magical sciences and the possibilities they offered attracted almost everyone. And yet, today, many were in for a big disappointment. "Only a small percentage of people have a talent for learning magic. Those of you who do not pass the test for magical ability will have every reason to wonder and curse the injustice of the world, but remember one thing: the inability to use magic does not make you inferior, and, given the statistics, it cannot be said that you are unlucky. It is more correct to call it great luck for those who turned out to be capable." With a light wave of her hand, Astilbe removed a dark cloth from some object, revealing a mysterious sphere standing on the table in front of them. "So, let's begin: all that is required of you now is to approach and place your hand on this sphere, trying to direct energy into it. If you are compatible, your body will know what to do. If not, nothing will happen." I will write about the classmates later, but for now, I will give the players the opportunity to start this process with their characters.
